After our performance on Friday night, I was offered a Sunday night time slot cancellation to orchestrate another musical experiment. Now Introducing...

The Electro-Music Sonic Orchestra v 1.0

(L-R) Ge Wang, Rebecca Fiebrink, Tim Lofgren, Lynn Bechtold, Brian Dunn, Kevin Kissinger

The piece was started by building an abstract ambient rhythm with glitch sounds and white noise. Concert violinist, Lynn Bechtold led with violin.
As the piece developed, I played the low end registers with the Cosmotron emulating a cello while Lynn Bechtold played electric violin and Rebecca Fiebrink played her flute through "the Mungenator" a custom program written by Ge Wang the day of the performance.
Kevin Kissinger played the theremin. During the piece he danced in and out of the violin and flute while often copying the their notes to the very key. He is amazing.
The video mix was done by members of Project Ruori.

The music moved from subtle glitched avant garde into a melancholy of flowing synthetic orchestral melodies.

Brian Dunn held down lead laptop and dropped in highly effected samples of Thax Douglas' poetry I recorded along with a short abstract IDM style beat effecting all of the above with Ableton Live.
