A few years ago I started using wood boards from mill waste to build both resonators and touch interfaces. I find the touchboards to be a great tool to allow a certain kind of flow,… or maybe ’embodied resonance’. gesti e figure con mani L’ornamento è attributo della creativitá, gesto e figura / gesture and figure Within the ornament, its own origin becomes infinitely...

This one is for all my friends, everywhere. It’s so nice to breathe with some Holy Basil’s energy tonight, while discretely aging a bit more. The thing is that while the modules just reveal fluctuations of micro-voltages, you are immediately brought into a different sentient state of being and playing. The same state we can be when within a forest. The sound though, is...

One day in the early Spring 1998, an anonymous Japanese man encountered on the Chiyoda Line in Tokyo, told me out of the blue these exact words: “Those who recognize that imagination is the arbiter of reality we call them ‘wise’, those who then put this knowledge into practice in life we call them ‘artists’ “. After that he disappeared in a large crowd...
Noise is the alter ego, Ianus Bifrons. The philosopher’s stone: a golden stone is still a stone. This work is a short ode to things I hold dear in my life: our beautiful planet, friendship, love and imagination. Musical communication only exists on a purely emotional level. Emotionality is immanent; expression is definitely linked to the instant, instant is unpredictably transcendent. Dedicated to...
Testing a prototype floor/touch board, to use with dancers in a future project I’ll expand this to a 5’x8′ floor with at least 2 piezos to drive Max/MSP, and possibly run multichannel audio out in 8 wood resonators. It should be pretty fun and engaging both to use and watch/listen. …hopefully sometime in a not too distant future : ) …with the blippoo box...

Five of Janice Wong‘s drawings inspired these resonant electronic miniatures. I worked on these images using various readings to generate counterpoints of sinewaves and resonant textures that follow and embody the transparent and spacious structures of Janice’s work. The sound was captured live in the room with 4 microphones. No speakers have been used as my setup includes only metal and wood resonators. – May...
