Feedback and Vibraphone-with vibraphonist Mike Hanf. Feedback produced by a pair of microphones and speakers and controlled by a bank of variable bandpass filters. the instrument acoustucally interacts with the feedback through both constructive and destructive interference, augmenting and canceliing tones as well as pulling pitch up and down.
With
original and
appropriated electronic devices interfaced with Max/MSP,Peter Musselman
and I created a piece/ instrument that selects streaming radio stations
based on voltage input.The audio output of the radio is then routed
back into the analog system. This results in a dynamic system with
largely autonomous behavior, requiring little user input. With a direct
link to the Cage/ Tudor tradition, RADI/O can be veiwed as an updated
version of Cage's Radio
Music.
