Composer of Electronic and Chamber Music, Freelance Programmer

Just a note that “RadioGamelan” is featured on the Projects section of Cycling74.com. Check it out here.

The show last night was a success, turnout was pretty good (lots of friends) and music seemed to be well received.

Set list:

1) Improvisation – drones juxtaposed against flurries of rhythm.

2) Fission - Performance premiere of this piece, very short middle section – fun!

3) Improvisation – Glitchy, sparse, and responsive.

4) Mediation (David Collins) – Good performance, solid cueing.

5) Radio Gamelan - Premiere also, small tech difficulties getting started, but got into some really weird and cool sonic areas.

6) Improvisation – Again, drones moving towards ambience w/ percussion.

On the eve of my second semester of grad school, I’ve created a page for the second of the pieces completed over break, RadioGamelan. The piece is for networked laptops, and is a blast to play. I plan on posting the software score (made in Max/MSP, using OSC to communicate over wi-fi), as well as a recording which will be released on Petcord in March, 2010.

The new release will be made up of improvisations and compositions performed by the trio of David Collins, Steve Schlei, and myself.
