Detour

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of John Gibson's Detour. This work uses recorded sounds of the subways in Tokyo and Kyoto, including machine sounds and platform announcements. The electronic sounds are meant to sharpen the qualities of the soundscape recordings which the composer created on a trip they made to Japan. The sounds of this piece are meant to suggest the feeling of disorientation and dislocation that come with traveling in an unfamiliar, fast-paced city.

Parlantes

Les dits de nobuyo

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Pierre Mariétan's Les dits de nobuyo. The composer states: "The "reality show" is that of the sound, of its own story implemented here in the relationship of the voices to each other with the noises captured, all of this inscribed in the silence of the composition. What these sounds, the voices, the story say, is to be interpreted by the listener according to his feelings, the awareness of what he perceives. The reality show does not want to be, like on television, the alibi of a unique and bygone reality. Its conclusion is that of the listener, discovering through the acoustic image that comes to him, not a visual representation of the sound (whatever one does one will never see a sound), but a formal configuration , dimensioned, resulting from the alliance of sound and space."
