yo. just finished the dvd for the installation im doing in a giant white cube as of next monday. the audio + video is way too huge to put up, but i put the 35 minute audio file up on my website for download + some video screenshots... the music is very disorientating, so if your into a mind fuck... ...im really really happy with the sound, would love some people to check it out, esp those into dark ambient. i know its 35 minutes long, i wouldnt have posted this and wasted your time if i didnt think it was some of my best work. the sound is composed entirely from field recordings... yet doesnt necessarily sound that way. |
||||||||

|
|
oh and yes i do plan on releasing this as a 5.1 dvd... it will have to wait until 2005 tho when i will have the funds from my room40 lp... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
d/loading any chance u can upload the video? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
downloading...and looking forward to that dvd :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
its being rendered to dvd as we speak at uni, will take a day at least to render... then i will try and compress it to quicktime... maybe make 5 minute excerpts or something... depends on how much i can fit on my site :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice 1, how do u convert movies to Quicktime? And what did u shoot film with |
||||||||
|

I'd be more interested to see it with the visuals, as that's what it's made for. |
||||||||
|

|
|
using Adobe Premiere, for example. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah it is designed as a physical experience, 6 speakers, 4 walls, and its a shame i cant share this work with you guys... i do think the audio stands up well in its own context however... yeah all editing and conversion has been done on macs at uni using premier... its been a bitch to put on dvd... |

holy crap. come to adelaide! should have done something like that for the fringe. this looks awesome, downloading now. if you need anything encoded, can sort it out - i've currently got a video encoding/producing rig on loan from apple australia for some other work i'm undertaking. of course, i'm guessing you're perfectly competent in doing this yourself, but the offer's there. :-) |

nice mysterious sounds. The installation is one show or does it continue on and on? maybe can you take some pics to.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, teapot, give us more of a background. installation, what you doing exactly? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks, the installation runs on loop for about 5 days for this really wierd art festival... i wish i could stay in there for the entire time to see peoples reactions to this, i think it will disturb a lot of people... the space is awesome... literally i giant white cube with a capacity of about 100 people... thanks xf, i will be doing the rounds of oz late 04 early 05 launching my lp, so i will come to adelaide and hopefully i will get an opportunity to show this piece :) |

take a video of the setup, walk around it with a camera or something. it'll give us a taste of the feel you've intended. |

I really would like to do a 5.1 surround sound DVD album at some point as well (although that'd require me getting a soundcard with surround sound support and some proper speakers). Downloading the music now, I'm a fan of your work so I'm looking forward to hearing this. |
||||||||

basically its 34 minutes of smoggy industrial wasteland, factories, brown rivers, decaying trees people gambling, jet planes, trucks and lots of smog, moves into these industrial kellidoscopes with mashing up machinery *admittedly this is slightly reminiscent of geogaddi art, but not in a huge way* ends with a little child playing with a music box (my lil sister) to contrast the whole depressing, miserable video... i dont know why we did that but it has a nice effect esp when you hear the final minute of audio. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep, i definatly will film it, im also filming the opening when myself and noah are playing a live av set, which will be more fun & more song based... |
||||||||
|
|

Enjoying it so far. Are the field recordings processed in any way (aside from things like EQ/slight reverb), re-pitched, delayed, flanged, filtered, etc.? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the amount of processing on the fields is insane, i pretty much always had 2 or 3 things being spat out by the granuliser at all times... it was free reign, but i recall mostly granulisation, delay, reverb and pitch shifting... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

It's quite mad, I'm listening to it on a surround system (I know only stereo, but sounds are coming from speakers behind me too) and I've got the windows open, so extra "environment" noises are coming in from either side and it's hard to tell what's on the track and what's real (although I know the lawnmower is real) :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...if it doesnt confuse people then i failed in my goal :) |
||||||||

heading to bed now, if anyone else does listen it would be great to hear comments! please post!! peace :D -james. |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
great stuff! so many differents things going on in such a minimalistic recording...covers everything from calm to intense stuff...how long did it take you to record this? i mean, how long were you collecting the sounds? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Finished listening to it. Good work, different to your usual output. Listening to the finished Fourier Transfer now too... liking it, that brief clip didn't do it justice. |
||||||||
|
|

|
ill wait till i get home from work to DL and listen. but so far, this thread odoesn't deserve the [spam] tags :( |

Bump and now listening. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Those screenshots look delicious. I would very much like to see this! Its a shame I'm on the other side of the globe... I'm listening to the audio right now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its extremely impressive that it is a halfhour long. To maintain the quality (referring to the audio) for such a long time, and keep things flowing is quite an accomplishment. PS: I see you disposed of your Joe Madueira avatars :) |
||||||||
|

thanks guys! :) appreciate y'all listening |

sorry tolstoyed, i forgot to answer your question... all the fields were recorded on 3 seperate days... day 1 was at the port and industral wastelands, where we were escorted off a total of 4 properties, one of which was very unsettling due to the acres of dead lands and a horrible sludge covering everything. day 2 was in the city where we recorded people talking, arcade machines and we were escorted from the casino for recording in there... day 3 we followed the side of the brisbane river as far as it went, recording factories, ferries, boats and general 'river' sounds... :) |

thats just my baby sister, nothing to be concerned about there :) |
||||||||

well i was all relaxed with the drones washing back and forth and then it came out of nowhere really loudly, very nice touch ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
@ 22 mins and onward i swear i can hear a star trek sound. btw, really great track im gonna see this one all the way through |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very nice. reminds me a bit of some of mouse on mouse more tendril drifting moments like from glam. How is it projected, 4 simultaneous projectors? I'm learning dvd authoring at school at the moment MPEG2 excita!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

It's excellent. If you do the DVD with the video I will definitely (genuinely) buy it. Seriously, words cannot describe how good I think this is. For a 35 minute track it is amazing that it never gets dull. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
wow thanks for the kind comments bro heres your portrait based on spanish description ;) |
||||||||

haha, If I was high society I could certainly look like that. :D |
||||||||
|

|

huh, i'd expect you were recording this for a much longer time...but i guess that's how it's done...to be prepared, and to know exactly what to record before you actually go out and start recording...it reminds me of what scanner and some video artist are doing - they made an album out of it as well. they were touring around the world in some well known cities (london, new york, tokyo, paris...), and when they arrived scanner went out recording "city sounds", and the video artist was recording traffic, buildings, people...they would then make an presentation in each of the cities in the evening...and that album sounds fantastic...im sure you know of it though :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i havent ever heard of that actually... i have never really been into scanner and 'found sound' noise artists etc, i might check it out.. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
umm, is a nice review from the milk factory about the album... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks, that doesnt look too bad :) |
