From roger at eartrumpet.org Sat Dec 1 11:46:42 2007 From: roger at eartrumpet.org (Roger Mills) Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2007 16:46:42 +0000 Subject: [Microsound-announce] Furthernoise issue December 2007 Message-ID: Furthernoise issue December 2007 http://www.furthernoise.org/index.php?iss=65 "Altered Realities - Erdem Helvacio?lu" (review) Recorded live to DAT using an acoustic guitar and live electronics, Altered Realities weaves in and out of the disaparate entities of accessibility and experimentalism. At times cheery and inviting and at other times disorienting and foreboding, electro-acoustic artist Erdem Helvacio?lu never alienates the less adventurous yet consistently explores the edges of the ambient aesthetic with daring and bravado. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=212 review by Bill Binkelman "Divisions In Parallel - Son Of Rose" (review) In veering away from the saturated noise savagery of previous works, Seattle-based composer Kamran Sadeghi third full-length is an example of immaculately engineered sonic sophistication. A sense of musicianship and an applied intelligence of the sound and feel for the piano is rendered apparent, as Sadeghi splits its sharp report, adjusts its frequency and pans it across the stereo field. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=208 review by Max Schaefer "Improbable Transgressions - Pedro Carneiro" (review) Pedro Carniero is a rock star?of classical percussion, that is. Yes, maybe it's a bit unusual for an accomplished symphonic percussionist to make a go of it as a soloist and composer while at the same time flirting with the "out there" world of experimental music. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=215 review by Derek Morton "Lngtch? Music for an untitled film by T. Z?rkkof" (review) Music for an untitled film by T. Z?rkkof is a continuous, evolving drone whose myriad parts revolve around each other like a mobile. A superb example of dark drone music, Music... is one 44-minute track, clearly divided into two loud, reverberent sections, separated by several minutes of quiet, ambient noise. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=214 review by Caleb Deupree "Musicamorosa - The Beautiful Schizophonic" (review) Hosted by Jorge Mantas, under the cloak of indulgently named and inclined The Beautiful Schizophonic, comes this assemblage, drenched in a musk of hyper-imagined bedroom-bound longueurs of laptop-lathered longing (mmm, the indulgence is infectious!). Musicamorosa is trailed with the heady referential aromatics of artistic influences ancient and modern. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=213 review by Alan Lockett "No Foly Bow - Frederik Ness Sevendal" (review) A regular in the improv drone noise scene in Oslo, guitarist Frederik Ness Sevendal has appeared in many constellations of musicians, Slowburn, Del and (at the risk of being accused of nepotism) my own occasional combo We Snakes. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=207 review by Mark Francombe "Piano Text - Aloof Proof" (review) Aloof Proof's Piano Text has spawned something of a cult following among ambience chasers. Originally released in 1994 as a private-pressed CD, along with two others on his Carbon Base label, it was a Another Blue World. It was The Future Sound of Lulldom. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=210 review by Alan Lockett "Review of Drift: Resonant Cities" (review) Drift:Resonant Cities, a series of internet radio programmes curated by Robert H King and New Media Scotland, the tracks on this double CD are part postcard, part travelogue, part aural archive. They shift from pure documentation and meandering narratives to processed and structured field recordings. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=216 review by Stacey Sewell "There Was No End - Andrey Kiritchenko and Sara Lunden" (review) Tinged with a blurred, slightly out of focus quality, the collaboration between Andrey Kiritchenko and Sara Lunden inconspicuously slithers from pieces predominated by rhythms and the fragmented interplay of loops, towards others of more consensual forms, in which the emphasis on drones and textural layering results in a striking density of sound. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=209 review by Max Schaefer "Time Frost - Rapoon" (review) Robin Storey refers to his work as ?soundtracks?, and this programmatic aspect is as apparent as ever on Time Frost. Admittedly, its visual subject/object is entirely conceptual, playing in each listener?s head-cinema, but it does follow a Storey-ed script. His credentials as a sonorous screen-player are well-established, largely articulated in an esoteric netherworld of ritual/ethno ambient. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=211 review by Alan Lockett "Wakool - Candlesnuffer" (review) Melborne-based guitarist Dave Brown forgoes overdubs and processing and takes the extended properties of electroacoustic, guitar, banjo, eukolin, and bandura as points of concern on his full-length effort, Wakool. Brown employs a complex of extended techniques to these instruments, caressing the strings with combs, tuning forks, and a medley of other devices, or pinning pickups on the body and headstock of the guitar. http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=217 review by Max Schaefer From fbar at footils.org Sat Dec 1 17:58:59 2007 From: fbar at footils.org (Frank Barknecht) Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2007 23:58:59 +0100 Subject: [Microsound-announce] LAC2008 submission deadline extended Message-ID: <20071201225859.GL6880@fliwatut.scifi> Dear all, the deadline for the call for papers and music for the Linux Audio Conference 2008 (LAC2008) has been extended.

A computer has become the main instrument in our time; sine waves and white noise - it's generated and most frequently used timbres. Gintas created this work as a podcast for folly by using 5 components and their symbolic meanings: 145 Hz and 235 Hz sine waves which are basic frequencies of male and female speech ? harmony; white noise - disharmony; 80 Hz sine wave which sometimes goes below the scale of human hearing ? hell; 10 KHz sine wave which goes above the scale of human hearing ? heaven. 80 Hz and 10 KHz reveal musical infinity and human limitation and, in some way, human possibility to create infinity from his limitations. Later he was a bit unsatisfied with the limitations of the mp3-codec and so you can now buy the CD-R here in a neat packaging mirroring the purity of his sonic creation. The work consists of intro, outro, and four parts, that symbolize earth and the order of mankind. Rhythm as a driving force of living is a key element in all parts. Does this concept mean that I'm trying to create the universe of spheres? - No. Does it mean that conception is more important than music? For sure ? not. Does it mean that music is above everything? - But music in these times doesn't exist ... there is only sound art. Elementary Particles was commissioned as podcast to folly and SoundNetwork . thanks for your kind support ! review : GINTAS K - ELEMENTARY PARTICLES (3"CDR by Retinascan) VITAL WEEKLY 603 One my favorite CDR labels is Retinascan, who take great care for the covers, a rare thing in the world of CDRs. Both of these three inch releases come in nice printed cardboard boxes. Gintas K is of course someone who came across before and here he goes into conceptual edges of sound, working very specific frequencies that reflect male or female speech, 80hz sine wave 'which sometimes goes below the scale of human hearing - hell, and 10 khz sine wave which goes above the scale of human hearing - heaven'. Originally made for a podcast, but of course it's hard to translate these frequencies into MP3 (a format unsuitable for any kind of experimental music, but that is probably a different discussion). It may seem altogether quite complicated, but Gintas K actually manages to create some nice music. Continuing his somewhat more crude sine wave cut ups of his previous releases, like a bastard (although in a positive manner) son of Alva Noto, his sine wave music has balls. Deep rumbling, cut to fit beats that are hardly danceable, but which are surely groovy. Still under the influence of early Pan Sonic, this is actually another fine release by this Lithuanian composer.

NOISE PICTURES Download from [HERE] Info: Noise Pictures is an attempt to challenge the idea of reusing exploited sounds. Roger recycled parts of his own compositions, recordings of jazz, etno, electro, unidentified vocals and sound special effects. As an effect of putting together apparently not matching elements we're getting condensed to not more than 18 minutes illustrative plunderphonic collages presenting wide spectrum of sounds and genres mixed into surprisingly coherent set of four compositions from the borders of experimental electronics, jazz, ambient, breakbeat and with nice noise eruption as a dessert.

I hope this hasn't been a burden on your mailbox as we tried to keep mailing activities to a minimum of one each month. Anyway, thanks for subscribing and we hope you'll keep bearing with us for another twelve months. And now the monthly digest: We managed to put out three releases despite going through a computer upgrade very close to the end of the month. Everything went more or less as expected, with only a minor problem related to the RAM not being 100% compatible with the new mainboard. Apparently, that happens frequently. In any case, we offered three excellent releases, one of them being the landmark 100th release, huzzah! It's not just very important to us as a label but also to the dozens of artists that have made this possible. tube100 was handled beautifully by Pitch Boys album 'Son of a Pitch', which was very important to the label. We also had one of our favorites last month, when it comes to soothing ambient made ou of field recordings, with James McDougall and his Entia Non project. The last release was a trip into psychedelic pop-drone (just made it up) territory, with 'Atractores Extra?os II' by an unusual band coming from the Canary Islands. And now the last releases of 2007: Already out is a nostalgic ambient masterpiece by polish musician krypton, called 'Silent Drama', and next we will have Motown Junkie with a selection of sample-based cut'n'paste groovy tracks and after that Cory Allen, another ambient genius, and then Eye, a musical project made by a dancer, and then the return of L.A. based Norman Fairbanks, just in time to wrap up this year. wheew! See you in 2008! Peace, '| November 27, 2007 PSYCHEDELIA FROM THE ATLANTIC " tube'|101 - G.A.F. - Atractores Extra?os II or, we are happy on the another planet ?Get this: Macedonian born Bosnian-Croatian and currently living in the spanish Islas Can?rias, Mladen Kurajica operates this band which makes some unrecognizable kind of psychedelic drone rock of sorts. G.A.F. is the name, which stands for Grifa Ambient Factory. Mladen is also one of the most active promoters of the live music scene in the Canary islands, which really shows his love for music and everything related. G.A.F.'s music is not easy to describe because it mutates from one work to the other. I've listened to stuff resembling of Sonic Youth's untuned guitars and steady drums to stuff that could easily be found among Spacemen 3/Sonic Boom's not so famous ambient works. And then they change again into something completely different. 'Atractores Extra?os II, or we are happy on the another planet' is a pretty varied album when it comes to music aesthetics. It opens with a couple of pop-ambient tracks 'Gaf likes turbo folk' and 'You saw the radio design that shaped our lives' which would appeal to even the most mainstream type of listener, but then it troddles into 'a7' and from then on Mladen and the guys go into 'ambient drone mode' to build the best tracks on this release. The song pair 'I saw your...' is absolutely fantastic in every way and they both set the mood for this album. The first features Mladen's own voice and the second is an ambient drone piece. 'The dawn fades away' is an epic and the real keeper here. The thing is a long heavy and psych drone that somewhere along the way puts us into some kind of contemplative state. Do not - I repeat - do not listen to this while driving a vehicle or while working with compex and dangerous machinery. You have been warned. G.A.F. is a one of a kind band and you really need to listen to the other works they did to fully comprehend the grasp of what they're trying to do. They will probably come to the Iberian Peninsula in late march next year, so keep your eyes peeled for a G.A.F. gig near you.? - Pedro Leit?o '| November 26, 2007 UPGRADING Hello again. We chose this occasion of the 100th release to upgrade our work machine. That's why we're a bit behind schedule, we had to undergo the usual hardware tests and software installations before being ready work on our catalogue again. So, what are we running here at the office? Nice of you to ask: intel's E6750 dual core processor with 4 gigabytes of system memory and one 250 gigabyte single platter hard drive for improved disk access speeds. Next up: G.A.F. Peas, '| November 16, 2007 PAPERCUTZED It's always very nice to see a test tube getting forward in is his/her career. It is such the case of :papercutz, featured in our release tube005. Bruno and the gang joined the ranks of Montreal's Apegenine Recordings and are expecting to see their debut full length 'Lylac' out this year on that canadian label. With european distribution by Baked Goods we're hoping to see it featured on the shelves of dozens of records stores and reviewed pretty much in every music mag and blog everywhere. Best of luck to :papercutz! Peas, '| November 12, 2007 THE ART OF CHILLIN' OUT " tube'|100 - Pitch Boys - Son of a Pitch ?Yeah, I was missing my good friend Nuno Meneses already. For our 100th release we are offering you 'Son of a Pitch', an album that was long overdue. It was to be released more than couple of years ago in Vinyl/CD format through our sister label, but some unexpected turns came down the road and it was kept in a drawer until some months ago. Well, here it is now just in time to commemorate our first one hundred releases. Unlike the previous Pitch Boys releases , 'Son of a Pitch' covers different ground in terms of aesthetics. Taking as an approach the typical song format, Nuno grabs some basics of chill-out genre and mixes them with world music references, ambient, broken beat and some lounge to create stylish music drones which are perfect with some smoking of the flora portrayed in both artwork covers. Some personal favorites: 'Creamynal', 'Plonaise', 'Son of a Pitch' and 'Marijuan'. Thank you Nuno, for another great selection of chillout tunes. Some of you might be asking why we didn't do the costumary 100th release compilation special, well... about an year ago I actually thought about it, doing some special stuff like a collaboration between a wide bunch of test tube artists. I started to line up some ideas and concepts, but sometimes is hard to manage the time needed for this to work out and suddendly it was too late to bring forward a complex idea like the one I was working on... lots of contacts to do, take into account the available time for each artist to complete the work, etc., etc. I had to abort the idea and pospone it to a future occasion, and do it right. And then the opportunity to release 'Son of a Pitch' came around and I didn't even think twice. Hope you all enjoy it. Roll up a king size for me!? - Pedro Leit?o '| November 05, 2007 THE PERFECT DREAMSCAPE " tube'|099 - Entia Non - Distal ?Another personal favorite of 2007 comes from the far away Australia. James McDougall a.k.a. Entia Non possesses the rare talent of putting together seemingly ordinary field recordings in a way that they sound to always have belonged together. If you enjoyed My Fun 'Idyll EP' release you'll love 'Distal'. James manipulates found sounds using ambient electronica techniques, tape reels and vinyl records into the most beautiful soundscapes you'll be able to hear. 'Watching the paint dry' is one of the best here, with sampled voices scattered amidst soft humming tones that sound like distant lost ships at sea. Beautiful stuff. 'A Winter Plateau' is another great track. A lot more into the 'nostalgia' theme than the previous ones - which is a recurrent theme when it comes to ambient music - but also very uplifting. Sparse real world here and there, but always embraced by a warm blanket of soft light. Makes us want to cuddle around a fireplace in a winter night with a cup of hot chocolate in our hand. Closing track 'Above' is a real gem. Runs for a little over ten minutes and covers mostly sci-fi soundtrack territory, which is something of a personal favorite around here. Could have been in Tarkovsky's 'Solaris' soundtrack and it would fit like a glove. James is a really talented musician who should not go unnoticed for he makes really amazing music capable of putting us into various states of dreamscape modes. With the perfect drug this can open portals to distant worlds too. James released a previous album on the infamous CDR label U-COVER called 'Inter Alia'. If you enjoyed what you have listened here you should go and buy it immediately, because it is a limited edition. Also, keep your eyes peeled for another Entia Non album here at test tube, somewhere in 2008. Thanks for listening!? - Pedro Leit?o '| November 04, 2007 OCTOBER 4XT #01 - tube095 - Long Desert Cowboy - Sandshoes [21124 downloads] #02 - tube096 - Long Desert Cowboy - Western Spaghetti [1361 downloads] #03 - tube094 - Omas FGT - Martin Heinrich [933 downloads] #04 - tube092 - The Jack Bohlen Book Club - Lion & Lamb [737 downloads] #05 - tube091 - Hugo Paquete - Commutative [720 downloads] #06 - tube093 - Fraufraulein - Country at the River of...

Amazing! And this is not some erroneous count from the server because I double checked everything and went through various levels of statistics. Whatever contributed to this abnormally high download count is still a mystery here... perhaps some weblog reference we haven't found yet. Anyway, it's totally deserved because both volumes from Long Desert Cowboy (tube095 and tube096) are absolutely fantastic. Big difference between both volumes, too... weird. #07 is the same as last month. Another 300 downloads for Juan Jos? Calarco's Plano Vertical. As for the rest, pretty normal scores considering they're all recent releases - all whithin a 2 month timeframe.

(moar.p31) http://www.and-oar.org/moar.html The first MP3-only release on the mOAR subdivision of and/OAR is one hazy mysterious daydream of an album from French sound artist Gabriel Hernandez (aka GoGooo). Perhaps if Ingmar Bergman, Fran?ois Truffaut and Andrei Tarkovsky met for tea to discuss a possible collaboration on a short film, this might be what it could possibly sound like? Guest appearances include Felicia Atkinson (Sylvain Chauveau collaborator), Jez Riley French, Paw Grabowski and Dale Berning. Proceeds from each and/OAR download release goes toward supporting the artists. I hope to be able to present a couple more mp3 releases by the end of the year: and.p31: Jonathan Benham & Christopher McFall: For Wings That Seldom Sleep and.p32: Andrea Borghi: Selected Works - 2001 - 2006 Thank you again for your time, Dale and/OAR: http://www.and-oar.org/ NEW: GOGOOO: ?

This week we featured an original recording of Gesang Der Junglinge I by Karlheinz Stockhausen and it came as a shock to hear of his death the following day. While opinions on his music are many and varied, there is little doubt that his contribution to experimental music has helped revolutionise the way we listen and create it today.

Each participant was asked to submit two field recordings: one deemed of a "familiar sound" and one of an "alien sound". The definition of familiar and alien was left to the subjectivity of individual responses. The following artists contributed their recordings: Hitoshi Kojo (place of birth: Ibaragi, Japan/current residence: Hull, Canada), Jason Kahn (New York, NY, USA/ZY"rich, Switzerland), jgrzinich (Poughkeepsie, NY, USA/Mooste, Estonia) Marcone Galvani (Milan, Italy/Brooklyn, NY, USA), Richard Garet (Montevideo, Uruguay/New York, NY, USA), sawako (Nagoya, Japan/Brooklyn, NY, USA).

Welcome to the last Public Service Announcement from the Helen Scarsdale Agency for 2007. It has been a tumultuous autumn, leading up to a hectic holiday season; yet we have managed to complete the arduous task of hand water-colouring all of the artwork for Murmer's impeccable new album/ We Share a Shadow./ Needless to say this CD is a limited affair, and dare we say it would make an exceptional stocking stuffer? As for the details about this fine production: --------------------- MURMER /We Share a Shadow/ HMS011 CD $15.00 Murmer is the pseudonym for Patrick McGinley, a man with several passports which have taken him to many a foreign land in search of found sounds of the unsettled, the forgotten, the mysterious, and the beautiful. His field recordings of activated environments (e.g. resonant industrial spaces, windswept telephone lines, bowed branches, gasping ventilator systems, etc.) originate from all of the locations where he has traveled; yet, the documentation of these sounds is the not the terminus of McGinley's work. He is far more interested in extracting a particular emotional, transcendent, or metaphysical kernel from those sounds, and then recontextualizing that germinated sound into sympathetic compositions of magnificent dronemusik. /We Share A Shadow/ continues where Murmer left off with the exceptional Husk album (in collaboration with Jonathan Coleclough), in spiraling his manipulated field recordings as a slow revelation of the environmental sonorities that undeservedly go unnoticed each and every day. Singing frequencies of a bowed piece of metal undulate against a grey tapestry of rain and rasping insects. Golden overtones from shimmering drones quell what agitated textures reside in McGinley's active field recordings, rendering the aggregate sound a nocturnal opiate with considerable potency. As Murmer, Patrick McGinley has produced a handful of releases on ICR, Ground Fault, Drone Records, and Absurd; and he has performed in venues both large and small across North America and Europe. He is also the host the Framework radio show on Resonance FM, dedicated to the consecration of field recordings and their use in composition. /We Share A Shadow/ is strictly limited to 300 copies, featuring hand water-coloured artwork and letterpress printing. --------------------- We thank you very much for your time and attention; and as always if you wish to be removed from the mailing list from the Helen Scarsdale Agency, please respond to this message with "Remove, please" within the subject header.

This headphone-fest is unique in its kind in Latin-America and we are going into our third edition. This coming Friday at 4:00pm we will have a transmission from Lima, Peru with two contemporary projects from the Peruvian scene: Paruro and Hamann. Again, the presentation is entirely on-line and the main ideas are to (1) bring together electronic music communities and (2) bring back the attention to sound in the popular electronic music environments. If you are interested in listening to this presentation all you have to do is click on the following link at 4:pm on Friday: http://www.discosinvisibles.org/streamingemfm.html If you listen to the session please let me know, and I would love to hear any comments.

Clearly influenced by the minimalist avant-garde of the American east coast in the sixties and seventies, his work exploits the physical properties of sounds and their relationship with human perception, time and space, and uses mathematical abstractions to shape each composition. Since 1998 he has been active in sound art through concerts and sound installations, collaborating with artists like John Grzinich or Paulo Raposo. His debut disc "Fades" (Dischi Di Angelica), a live performance documenting his seven year-long research on sinewaves, has received raving reviews across the globe.

Here's a final (I promise!) missive for 2007 regarding a few projects, events, and what have you... THE SONICS OF ART SPACES I'm pleased to have been included on a new mp3 compilation curated by John Kannenberg over at Stasisfield. The collection, called "The Sonics of Art Spaces", focuses on the acoustics of museums and galleries across the world. My contribution, entitled "Sound Spandrel: Minnesota Museum of American Art", originated as a headphone piece at the MMAA's "Sound In Art/ Art In Sound" exhibition earlier in 2007. Download the compilation here: http://www.stasisfield.com/releases/year06/sf-6001.html PERFORMANCE (Minneapolis) Minneapolis, Tuesday December 18th, Acadia Theater: this is the last night of the Tuesday night free improvisation series at Acadia, for the time being anyway. Acadia's moving and we're not moving with it, though we hope to continue the series elsewhere. It's been a real treasure. Anyhow, I'll be performing with my laptop as part of a trio with Bryce Beverlin II (percussion) and Charles Gillett (guitar), and then later as part of Brown Rainbow. For details on the show: http://tcmusic.net/musicianschedule1680.html FRAMEWORK BROADCAST A few weeks back, London's Resonance FM broadcast an edition of "Framework" produced by yours truly, where I was given the opportunity to spin some field recording-oriented work by artists featured on the Wandering Ear net label I co-curate. You can stream this episode by heading to http://murmer.soundtransit.nl/playlists07.html and scrolling down to "25.11.07". Unfortunately, this edition wasn't produced in time to include Lance Olsen's recent "Edges" release on Wandering Ear. Download it here: http://wanderingear.com/we007.html MISCELLANEOUS RELEASES "Silent Night (Shepherds Quake)" is a dismantling of a music box playing "Silent Night", which I mention to enhance the holiday experience of anyone who might have missed it last year: http://darkwinter.com/dw031.html "Shuffletronics #1: A Beginning, A Middle, And An End" is a randomized piece involving interviews about sound with friends and family members: http://mnartists.org/work.do?rid=149596 "Palimpsest (Peter Stuyvesant's Ghost)" was part of the Dutch Days Radio Hour broadcast during the Peter Stuyvesant's Ghost project in NYC, 2006: http://mnartists.org/work.do?rid=149592 Thanks for your time!

Workshops are led by international, field-expert practitioners, extending over realms of environmental code, noise, signal transmission, reception, and electromysticism. The workshops will utilise household materials and chemistry, readily-available electronics components, free software and the GNU toolbase. Over the course of five days, participants will have the opportunity to construct a set of various electronic audiovisual artifacts (being either code or hardware) with which a final presentation/performance will be made. In learning how to create complex sound and image generators from the most basic elements, the participants will explore liminal electronic experiences and intriguing phenomena where carefully-engineered borders and parameters are twisted and transgressed, producing unexpected results in performance. Workshops: 29.1. NOISE_PRODUCE by Martin Howse (UK) & Martin Kunetz (DE) 30.1. ONE BIT MUSIC by Frederik Olofsson (SE) 31.1. DIGITAL THEREMIN WORKSHOP by Andrei Smirnov (RU) & Derek Holzer (US/NL) 01.2. CHAOS IN NODES AND NETWORKS by Jessica Rylan (US) 02.2. BASTARD NATURES by Alejandra Nu?es Perez (CL) The series takes inspiration from and continues the development of the (semi)weekly xxxxx workshops held at the Pickled Feet space in Berlin over the last year. It is supported by Arduino. Theme: "...in the good old days of Shannon's mathematical theory of information, the maximum of information coincided strangely with maximal unpredictability or noise..." [Friedrich Kittler: There is no software] Engineers and scientists are concerned with prediction and thus predictability. Inside black-boxed apparatus the faint markings of tolerance, deviations from a predictable scenario towards the encryption of noise, can well be observed by the wily artist. Technology is thus exposed as a material expressing a certain chaos, pure noise of all voices. In return, materiality and an artistic concern with the matter of technology allows for the entry of the unpredictable, environmental noise within an otherwise closed circuit or economy. Registration: xxxxx-workshops is open to anyone, from novice to experienced electronic artist. The workshops will be held in English. You can register for single workshops or for the whole series. In addition to the actual daily workshops, a free open work-area gives everyone opportunity to pursue projects begun in one of the workshops over the course of five days. The registration fee for a single workshop is 10.- EUR, the fee for the series of all five workshops is 30.- EUR. For descriptions of the workshops and workshop leaders go to: http://www.clubtransmediale.de/club-transmediale/xxxxx-workshops.html You can register till January 14, 2008, by sending an email to: xxxxx at clubtransmediale.de Please don't forget to indicate which of the workshops you wish to attend. xxxxx-workshops: [in]tolerance is curated by Martin Howse and Derek Holzer, and produced by Jan Rolf and Anke Eckhardt for Club Transmediale. -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ::: http://blog.myspace.com/macumbista ---Oblique Strategy # 139: "Revaluation (a warm feeling)" From dwnewman at clara.co.uk Tue Dec 18 04:20:32 2007 From: dwnewman at clara.co.uk (David @ Audiobulb) Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2007 09:20:32 -0000 Subject: [Microsound-announce] RME & Midiman gear for sale References: Message-ID: <008601c84157$3e595060$ab877257@BEPPC> RME HDSPe PCI card (connects to multiface (I & II) & Digiface, RPM) - for a professional quality PCI Express Card - this card is as new and has not been used ?150 ono ------------------------------------------------ Selling due to upgrades....

"Urdoxa" is his second release after self-released Narodziny Nieboraka. In this work he attempts to recall the approach and soul of the early experiments of electroacoustic composers. Hitch-hiking back in time through the history of electronic music with a backpack of knowledge and theory, he uses old masters' techniques to gain his own original sound. And it works out quite well (which can be easily proved by the recording available here). Urdoxa - as Kozak describes it himself - is a "composition created with tools of old-school electroacoustics (tape-music) methods. It started from aleatoric score interpreted 24 times on different instruments (mostly custom ones) and recorded on tapes. Then, the sound was manipulated using pitch shifting, equalisation and mixed."

Each piece utilizes a devised frequential pattern with the intention of resonating a single Chakra and then moving onward to another, or resonating multiple Chakras simultaneously, for which I coined the term spinning wheel chord. The objective of this experiment was to determine if embedding certain frequency groups in music could enhance the human nervous system and invoke positive psychobiological alterations.

Doors open at 7 p.m. Music starts promptly at 8 p.m. Admission is $5 at the door. The concert was developed around the theme of transition - into the new year, into a new life - and the atmosphere will be mediative as well as festive. Following the wild parties of New Year's Eve, people are invited to bring blankets, cushions, sleeping bags or any other items of comfort and let the soundscapes take them where they will. NAW is the alter-ego of Neil Wiernik, a Montrealer currently living in Toronto who has been composing electronic music since 1988. Neil has recently entered remission after a year-long battle with cancer. "Now that the battle is over," he says, "it's time to heal. And what better way to kick off my healing process than with a live set of all the music I had been writing through my battle with cancer!" NAW will be joined by local electronic acts Darcin and Le Peuplier de Simon, from labels Le Son 666 and Natacha's Recordings, respectively. The evening will start with a debut performance by Eudroma, a new sonic project by members of lab.synthse. The performances will be accompanied by video projections from various collaborators. lab.synthse is an art collective with members from Montreal, Vancouver, London and Mexico City. Their headquarters, where this event will be held, are at 435 Beaubien Ouest, loft 200, Montreal. More than a simple venue, the loft is a creative space where artists from different disciplines are invited to freely engage in experimentation and play. lab.synthse is: Yan Basque, Alex Cowan, Sebastian Cowan, Ingemar, Brekex Kox, David Peet info at labsynthese.com www.labsynthese.com 514-279-5841 From neil at phoniq.net Mon Dec 24 12:08:28 2007 From: neil at phoniq.net (Neil Wiernik) Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2007 12:08:28 -0500 (EST) Subject: [Microsound-announce] binary soundstripe JAN 4th 2008 with NAW and Dennis J Message-ID: <20071224120754.X55124@dormir> Friday, January 4th, 2008, Immersed Perspective and PPP go all in with a worldly showcase of music and graphics traversing the world of electronic music and art. naw (Toronto) . Live Montreal ex-pat naw (Neil Wiernik) who currently calls Toronto his home, began composing electronic music in 1988 with explorations in audio art and experimental music. Neil's interest in sound and technology has lead him to a continued questioning and refinement of audio tools and modes of production resulting in experimentation with altered instruments, modified devices, and custom software environments. Neil's music could be described as warm, atmospheric, and cinematic electronic music. The sound design of naw is firmly grounded in the rich traditions of dub studio culture but can also be weighed alongside formal contemporary composition. His music was recently described in "The Wire" as having "...the kind of sharpness and clarity usually lost amid the murk and decay of clicks and cuts and digital delays." Neil has released music on various labels including Noise Factory and Sentient Sound. www.phoniq.net dennisj (Detroit) . Live Styled analogue and digital treachery straight out of the back of machines. Expect dub techno, Detroit techno and ambient pulsating electronic wizardry from the stateside genius. Mike Bishop (Toronto) . DJ Originally hailing from Australia, Mike is now residing in Toronto. His antics are one step beyond. Expect deephouse, minimal and dub-tech flavours. Visuals by PPP (Australia) - VJ and Graphic Artist For your enjoyment, PPP.s visual interpretations and computer graphics will be synched up with the music and projected throughout the venue all night long. 10pm till Late - No Cover Tangerine Lounge 647 King Street West Toronto, ON M5V 1M5 Stay tuned for more events. website coming soon. flyer: http://dreaming.org/~neil/naw/untitled.JPG From neil at phoniq.net Wed Dec 26 00:32:38 2007 From: neil at phoniq.net (Neil Wiernik) Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2007 00:32:38 -0500 (EST) Subject: [Microsound-announce] naw winter news Message-ID: <20071226003224.P24531@dormir> Hi, I hope this email finds every well and enjoying the the time of year, I think it has been since the summer that I have sent out any naw updates so since there is a bunch of good news I figured that this would be as good a time as ever. First off I have kicked cancers ass and Im officially in remission. Now that Im done cancer treatment and recovering, I will slowly begin to play shows again. I cant promise that I will be back in the saddle again playing live multiple times a month right away, as I need to heal and recover but at least I will be playing out more often then I have been since the spring when I began being treated for cancer. I have been booked for a few dates towards the end of this year and into early next, which I will list at the bottom of this message so in case you want to attend one of the shows you can. As for new releases being put out I recently released a new track on the changes compilation put out by the nice people at pertin_nce, I will also be releasing another new track on a second compilation they are putting out in the early new year tentatively called trial. You can find all the information about these releases at http://www.pertin-nce.com and best of all they are free to download. As for more material I have written a lot of new material over the last year that equates to more then one full length release, so over over the next while you should see more new music released in the form of full lengths, eps and compilation tracks when they will see the light of day I cant tell that is up to the labels I am working with but I promise you all that they will be released. below is a listing of up coming show between now and early Jan as more shows get announced after that you can simply check out www.phoniq.net the official naw website which has recently been updated.

You can even find a parking space these days! I moved here myself at exactly this time of the year a while back, and it took me more than a week (of empty clubs and bars) to finally figure out what all the fuss about Berlin was for. Don't worry, it picks back up after New Years.

On the other hand, a few very good venues have shut their doors forever here in Berlin in the last year: the Zentrale Randlage, Tesla, Scherer8 and Alt Stralau all called it quits. RIP. The Ballhaus Naunystrasse and the Volksbuhne will soon change their artistic leadership and/or profiles as well, quite possibly getting rid of the kind of concerts people like us dig in the process, and the Bastard will also close in 2008.
