“Many Drops” in online micro-concert

“Many Drops” was included last month in IMAGINARY CONCERTS, an online micro concert with sound-art miniatures focusing on water and climate change consequences. The performance took place on March 22, 2014 at 5:00pm (Montreal time) as part of “3WDS14 – WaterWheel World Water Day Symposium”. The curator and host at Concordia University was Ricardo Dal Farra.

“Many Drops” is a one minute work I wrote for “art! ⋈ climate”, a contest organized by CEIARTE-UNTREF in collaboration with the Red Cross/Red Crescent Climate Centre.

“November”: a New York minute for 60×60

My new one minute piece, called “November” has been a given a place in the 60×60 surround sound presentation commissioned by Vox Novus and Harvestworks Digital Artworks Media Center in New York City.

60×60 is a one-hour-long show made by sequencing 60 pre-recorded pieces by 60 different composers, each piece a minute in length or shorter. This particular version will be a 5.1 surround sound mix to be premiered at Harvestworks multichannel TEAMLab listening room on May 16th at 7:00 pm EST.

“November” is a 4 channel piece created using my Audio SprayGun software written in SuperCollider. I will put a stereo reduction online soon.
