My latest work "Symmetries" that was commissioned by the emerging Polish violinist Ania Zielinska will receive its premiere at the third Linux Audio Conference (

About "Symmetries":
Symmetries (for computer and optional violin) is an experiment in relegating musical structure and expression to the inherently stupid box of transistors. By concurrently utilizing various GNU/Linux audio software (Fluidsynth/QSynth, Pd, LADSPA, Jack-rack, JACK) it was composer’s intention to generate a lush interactive texture whose frail balance engenders a consistent forward drive. In an ever-changing array of hierarchical probabilities no two instances are expected to ever be the same. The piece has been designed to be completely modular in terms of computer-driven sound diffusion and can utilize 2-8 channels.
For its premiere the piece will utilize 8-channel diffusion.
