Composer
This composition grew out of five short samples of note production on a harpsichord. These samples were then strung together to mimic the trajectory of a sounding note on that instrument: attack/articulation, sustain, and then the abrupt cut off release. Purchase the CD.
Bad Villager was inspired by a news story (and photographs) of a Bösendorfer piano falling off the back of a loading truck. Someone was quick enough with a camera to take pictures but I wish that someone would have been equally quick with a microphone. All of the samples come from the Freesound user batchku’s …
This work is derived from various paper, paper cutter, and fire sounds. Special thanks to the Freesound Project and David McIntire for providing most of the samples.
Almost Shiny was composed in the summer of 2008 and was a part of the 60×60 International Mix in 2009. The work’s extended counterpart, Shiny, was a finalist for VI Concurso Internacional de Miniaturas Electroacusticas that same year. The sound sources come from David McIntire’s wacky bag of magical noises. ]
