Winter 2023 by Dan Senn |
Three Disguised for Fixed Stereo 7 minutes and 45 seconds |
|
Winter Three Disguised was
completed on December 21,
2023 at Gasworks Studio in Holešovice,
Prague, Czechia. It was improvised live with Dan Senn
performing a Behringer K2 Synthesizer, a clone of a Korg MS-20
synthesizer, and
is for stereo fixed media. It was further processed using Ableton Live.
The
work takes one sound file copied to three files, "identical triplets",
developing these to a
point of individuation over the duration of the piece. This Korg was issued in 1978 and first used by Senn to compose Lilly Lane in his Jefferson Street Studio, Chicago, an early venue for Roulette Intermedium now in Brooklyn, NY. |
The playback setup should include two
large speakers with 12" or larger woofers. Listen to Winter Three Disguised using headphones.
