Janvier - Quêtes de chaleurs

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
"So are you fire of body" - Evocation of the body which lived, of the Promethean body always consumed by the life but never resurrected. A body without function, absolute, an existing carousel for itself, drinking from the restlessness of other bodies. His cavities, his warmth, his breathing are ardent and sweet confessions that murmur desire. "Janvier - Quests of Chaleurs" is an electroacoustic production of the poem by the Quebec author Paul-Marie Lapointe. Divided into four parts, the work exposes four progressive states of an inner reality, states suggesting a confused descent into hell, dominated by desire and haunted by an insatiable thirst for abandonment to the other.

Karangan

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Karangan is the Indonesian word for “work”, as for instance the peasants working in the rice fields. In this composition I tried to integrate the western and eastern musical traditions. Sometimes it turned out, more or less, as a confrontation between two different cultures, and other times it resulted in a synergy. I was inspired to create this piece by my trip through Indonesia in 1989, the country where I was born. It reflects the sounds I heard, the movements I saw and the thoughts and emotions I endured. The real sounds, which I used, are my own recordings, made at location.

The Lead Plates of the Rom Press

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
The Rom Press was a publishing house in Poland known for its editions of Yiddish poetry and Talmudic tracts. During the Nazi occupation members of the Resistance attempted to melt down the plates of these great literary works and religious tracts in order to produce ammunition. The work employs real time interaction between the cellist and the computer. The computer sounds combine synthesis and digital filtering techniques that are all rotted in a digitally recorded .25 second guiro scrape. Software for the interactive processing was written in Max. Hardware includes a Roland VP70 pitch tracker, a Mac SE/30 with Digidesign SA Card and an Akai S1000 for digital audio and processing. The Lead Plates of The Rom Press was commissioned by Westdeutscher Rundfunk Köln (WDR) for cellist Siegfried Palm.

Lithophanie

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
"Lithophany" is a journey through different natural models made electronically and "sculpted / spatialised" in real time. The instrument that dialogues with this environment is itself transformed at certain times and spatialized. A 4-track band presents to the dynamic spatialization system, a continuum of electronic material, without articulation or form, it is the system that will in real time give shape and life to this material realizing the different stylized images of the suggested models. This will be followed by the fire, wind, wings, birds and ostinati of birds, the imaginary bestaire, water, rain, the dialogue of water and birds, the resonances of water and again the final fire. The recording was made when it was premiered at the IMEB Festival in 1990.

Lunar New Year

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
The term "lunar" refers to: taking on or relating to the moon. We all conjure (up) different images when we think of the moon. The moon has been described in literature in many ways, some examples are "the landscape of a great glacier" (John Hunt's Conception) and "shadows on the sand" (Kathleen Raine). Although men have walked on the moon and undoubtedly discovered many things, I often wonder what unreported mysteries it holds. The vast black blanket of space sometimes robs our view of the stars; but yet it allows us vaguely to see our moon. This has posed many questions for me, what "fun and games" are being played on the other side of the blanket? "Lunar New Year is my own realization of what happens on the other side.

The lyre of the west wind

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Andrew Lovett's The lyre of the west wind. The title of this piece is from the poem Shelley, Ode to the West Wind.

The sounds are restricted to pitched bowing and pizzicato samples from a cello, which are processed with the help of an alesis quadraverb.

Mein 1989

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
In 1989, we celebrated the Bicentenary of the Great French Revolution. On this occasion, I composed a radio play "Mon 1989". It was a collage of electroacoustic music and documents that I recited myself. After the "little German revolution", the idea came to me, by association, to compose the current correspondent: "Mein 1989", using my voice and this time, documents recorded on magnetic tape. It is a look back on our destiny which, in East Germany, begins with the terrible legacy of Nazism. At the beginning of the play, we listen to a quote from Anaximander: "This place where things take their origin, to this place where they must also be damaged because they have to pay for them. injustice...." Thus the play refers to the difficulties of saying the word "Liberty".

Memories of the Universe

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Eternity, which can be perceived at every moment, divine capacity embracing everything. I had set my foot in the most basic realms of human existence, on a journey to search for the true significance of living. During my journey, I had always felt in touch with something divine. Because I made my music through divine influence itself, I can say that the actual composer of this work is a divine power. I was lived and breathed by its existence. “Memories of the Universe” — we can consider them the most basic memories (realms) existing in a human being. In our modern times, the existence of these memories is about to be lost and forgotten. Not only did I want to act as an intermediary for these memories, I also wanted to try to show the implacable evidence of their existence. The tape was realized using the facilities of the Electronic Music Research Laboratory of Kunitachi College of Music in Tokyo, Japan.

Nahual II

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Nahual II is a piece for Chamula Harp, computer and Yamaha SY77 synthesizer. The Chamula harp is an instrument from southeast Mexico used by the Chamula Indian communities for religious ceremonies. The instrument as well as the tuning keys is made of very lightwood and tuned by hand. The strings are made of steel. Its lightwood allows the performer to make glissandos by pressing the resonant top. Due its characteristics, the tuning is not stable so its acoustic evolution during the performance makes this instrument quite interesting. The Mexican sorceress inspires me to create Nahual II; they use the ¬Nahual¬ as a way of experimenting with new realities or to ex someone.
