& Eric Cordier).<BR><BR>This release summarises what was initially a 6 hour
performance / installation / <BR soft>radio broadcast that occurred at the TNT
cultural centre in Bordeaux, France.<BR>The TNT centre is situated inside a
former shoe manufacturing building.<BR>With several hundred meters of cables,
the exterior and interior of the building were <BR soft>recorded using several
different condenser and contact microphones, modified <BR soft>and mixed in real
time on a 32 channel mixing desk. Simultaneously, the live mix <BR soft>was
played into the concert hall / space using 8 channels for 8 loudspeakers. <BR
soft>While the improvisers were on the upper level, the audience was listening
and <BR soft>walking around on the lower level.<BR><BR>The final mix for the CD
was edited by Eric La Casa.</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>VARIOUS ARTISTS: Overheard And Rendered (1)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=text><FONT size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12px; LINE-HEIGHT: 15px">What?<BR>The first of a new series of
limited edition sound work collections that illustrate the <BR soft>various
utilization of field / environmental recordings.<BR>This is intended to be
an ongoing curatorial invitation-only project that might expand <BR soft>into
becoming more than just a disc release in the future.<BR>Maybe a multi-media
disc-zine? Who knows where it may lead?<BR><BR>Why?<BR>Partially because the
and/OAR schedule is usually booked up well in advance and <BR soft>there
is only so much time in a year to release new work, and since there are so
<BR soft>many interesting and talented sound artists in the world
flying within range of the a/O <BR soft>radar, that one solution was to
create a vehicle which would enable the presentation <BR soft>of many different
artists' work at one time, and yet still be able to present pieces of <BR
soft>longer duration than compilations normally do. This would also help
alleviate the time <BR soft>it would take to issue countless 3" releases
as well.<BR>And while the main focus of the series is to help get lesser known
artists work heard,<BR>occasionally a track by a more known artist might appear
as well.<BR><BR>Who?<BR>This time the works featured are by American composer
Maggi Payne, American <BR soft>sound installation artist / phonographer Perri
Lynch, and French sound artists Pali <BR soft>Meursault, Christophe Havard, and
Emmanuel Mieville.</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
