Modelagem V

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Edson Zampronha's Modelagem V. All sounds have completely or partially the same characteristics, even with coming from different sources (synthesis, C-Sound, voice, fried eggs, metal and skin percussion instruments, noise from the proper sound system, knife sharpening, toilet flush, respiration and some others). At the same time, the whole composition has collective auto-similarity and takes the perceptual dimension and the inner grammar as the basis of the language and of the qualitative states of transformations.

Transition

15° harmonico

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Rodrigo Cicchelli Velloso's 15° harmonico. For harmonica, piano, and tape. This piece develops a series of variations of the initial piano sequence. Most of the sounds in the electronic part are taken from the samples of the piano itself, but a flute and various percussion instruments have also been used. These sounds have been reworked using different filtering techniques, to impose a harmonic relationship commonality between instrumental and electronic writing.

Pacific Soundscapes with Dancing

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of John Rimmer's Pacific Soundscapes with Dancing. "Pacific Soundscapes with Dancing" was composed in 1995 at the Computer Music facility, Centre for the Arts, Simon Fraser University, Vancouver. The work is based on computer transformations of environmental sounds derived from the following: sea with cicadas and stream, bell birds and parrots recorded on Little Barrier Island (Hauturu) and volcanic activity on White Island (Whakaari) including ominous sounds from a vent in the side of the main crater and delicate bubbling sulfur streams. The dancing referred to in the title is an electronic image of boisterous Pacific drumming ensembles and is derived from a tiny fragment of the opening of the composer's "Composition 4 for Flute and Electronic Sounds." These sounds are extended beyond their environmental settings by granulation and time stretching.

Face on Mars

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Michael Ward-Bergeman's Face on Mars. "Face On Mars" is the composer's first CSound piece. It was inspired by the research of Richard Hoagland. In his book, The Monuments of Mars - A City On The Edge Of Forever, he presents conclusive evidence of a former advanced civilization on Mars. The evidence is based on pictures taken from probes sent up to Mars in the 1970s. These pictures reveal artificial structures that communicate redundant mathematical formulas through their alignment on the Martian surface. These mathematical formulas point the way to a "new" untapped energy source available in the universe. Unfortunately, there is much debate regarding the accuracy of Hoagland's findings. To complicate things further, since the mid 80's every probe sent to Mars either by Russia (Phobos) or the United States (Mars Observer) has been lost. The composer notes that they are frustrated by the fact that it was possible to send probes out of our solar system and land people on the moon in the 70's, but in the 1990's, it wasn't possible to even get a probe to Mars. New pictures focused on this area of Mars would silence the critics of Hoagland's theories and reveal a …

Between the Lines

Recording of Frederick L. Malouf's Between the lines. The composer's focus is the combination of three elements – improvisation, electronic sounds, and the fusion of different styles.

The sound device is a Kurzweil K2000. The composer was playing a Midi guitar controller. Accompanying are the sounds of the electric cello.

Spirit levels

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Roger Doyle's Spirit levels. The composer describes the spirit levels as being impossible dreamplaces in an imaginary building inhabited by ghosts, memories and echoes of peoples' lives. In numbers I, II and IV the material is nearly all sequenced using complex samples (e.g. number II is made up almost entirely from clarinet samples). Number III is a mixture of sequencing and granular synthesis and the voice treatment in number I is phase vocoding on a next cube. III runs into IV without a break.

Piano computrato

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Vladimir Djambazov's Piano computrato. For Atari STFM and Roland Sound modules. Composed first as computer piece, Piano Computrato transfers the traditional techniques of the prepared piano (Cage) to the digital environment. There, all sound parameters can be processed independently and many additional parameters can be controlled: filter, discrete pitch, sound envelope, panning, effects etc. The composition uses 16 MIDI channels and most of the sounds, including the ones that do not sound very "pianistic" were derived from sampled piano sounds by means of various modulation processes.

Games

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Fabio Cifariello Ciardi's Games. For contrabass and electronics. Looking at sound events in terms of mental images might be useful to grasp a part of the listener knowledge that might stand out clearly during the listening process, even without being directly related with musical parameters. In "Games," I used sounds to explore the abstract concept of game. "Games" is based on sonic organisms that dwell different virtual spaces. The listener is intended as the main player of a metaphorical and surrealistic audio game.
