Vent

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Frederick Szymanski's Vent. This is a sound and image piece that attempts to develop a dialogue between sound and movement. The visual part was created through the use of real-time non-standard 3D techniques. The resulting series of movements are accompanied by sound gestures. Sound and image are sometimes aligned, but at other times they diverge as the sound becomes increasingly active and complex.

Ka-Boom !

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Aki Pasoulas' Ka-Boom !. This work is based on a recording the composer made of a fireworks display. The composition employs recorded voice that imitates fireworks and the text that was compiled is a combination of onomatopoeia, made-up language and words used in comic books. The structuring of the composition attempts to parallel the human brain's process, while at the same time puts all the information in the time frame of a real-life event.

Shatter Cone

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Panayiotis Kokoras' Shatter Cone. This is a work for violin and electronics and was commissioned by the MATA Festival 2004 to be performed by Mari Kimura. The title refers to the way the sound of the violin is formed into sonic structures from the impact of the bow's pressure, speed, and position on the strings in combination with their register. The pre-recorded material comes only from violin sounds, transformed to keep the gestural and spectral data of the original sound while losing reference to the original.

Earth-Star Songs

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Leif Brush's Earth-Star Songs. This work is considered a "stitching" of sounds and recordings taken from an array of the composer's analogue constructs and terrain instruments. These recordings have been paired with recordings produced by Jerry Chamkis' Kosmophone. The result is an inexhaustibly complex amalgamation of hard-edged terrestrial and tactile phenomena contrasted by cosmically sourced retro-futuristic synth interjections.
