Tape Epiphany (2007) Block Museum of Art

Friends and Colleagues,
While most of Chicago is going to be standing in sweaty shoulder to shoulder solidarity for Lallapalooza, Antena Gallery and I will be hosting a quiet revolution of our own for those that are truly down. I have painstakingly installed "Tape Epiphany" (2007) in Antena Gallery's Project Wall Space and to prove it, the opening reception is Friday August 7th from 6pm - 10pm. I look forward to seeing you there.

This is what I refer to as crafty ambient music, because it is obvious that instrumental craftmanship is emphasized just as much as production techniques. Aligned more with glitch, this ambient music does not rely on spacial harmonics and extremely long tones but focuses on specific textures; balancing field recordings, post production noodling and instrumental works into a carefully composed harmony. 

Work in Progress: Experiments in Audio Degeneration

Added on by Cole Pierce.



Work in Progress, experimenting with analog distortion, this track is comprised of samples of stages of audio degeneration. I'm using a loop of bells and kids toys that I made with Forrester, recorded to cassette and stripped off portions of the magnetic tape with typewriter liftoff tape. This was digitized, looped and dubbed back onto the damaged cassette, then I distorted the tape further by wrinkling it with my fingers. This was again digitized and I layered the audio into 3 tracks, applying effects using Ableton.
