[Umstead Teahouse Base Construction]
Photograph of a wooden and concrete base under construction for the Mary K. Umstead Teahouse in the Fort Worth Japanese Garden. Several workers lay a flat subfloor over the wooden joists of a lumber frame, built on round concrete stilts projecting into an empty concrete pond below, while other workers stand on the dirt path alongside the pond with tools and wheelbarrows. A Japanese-style gate stands behind them, as well as a small hill with concrete walls at right. Boulders and small trees sit along the pond at left.

Signal Messe
Recording of Peter Tod Lewis's Signal Messe. "Signal-messe" is an attempt to make a single coherent "bi-sensory" experience from two independent media expressions. The "performers" were the creators, having long since stored their improvisations on magnetic tape or film. The "mess" of stored "signals" was severely cut, edited, processed, mixed, according to a structure that seemed to be dictated by the material itself (though, naturally, in light of subjective considerations). The structure continued to emerge when the two elements, tape and film, were presented together. It was evident they had much in common: the film seemed, incredibly, a visual analogy of the music, their internal rhythms identical. It remained simply to synchronize the two to match certain salient audio features with video ones. The film is a movie of various video patterns produced largely through video feedback of a black and white system and then converted to color by a video color quantized, a unique device which allows the operator to assign virtually any color to any value in the video grey scale. The film provides a window (a “space gate?”) into a fantastic color world that just might be the same aesthetic realm as that of the sound.

Mithril Canticles
Recording of Michael Christopher's Mithril Canticles. This piece is a heavily edited work utilizing two opposing sound ideas. One is "noise-oriented" sound achieved through fast sequential activity processed by ring modulating the reverb. This activity is opposed to the three-to-five note tune which permeates the work.
