hello. this might be of interest for all the MAX/MSP (glotch?) and/or maybe cremaster cycle enthusiasts among you... last year, i had the privilege to see the "fathers" of the MAX/MSP software, miller puckette (along with cort lippe, director of the lejaren hiller computer music studios at the university at buffalo, new york) and david zicarelli (cycling 74, along with composer jonathan bepler, who is inter alia responsible for the cremaster's soundtrack) perform live at the gare du nord in basel, switzerland (a rather rare occasion, up to that point mr. zicarelli e.g. hadn't performed live for several years, according to himself). an acquaintance of mine filmed parts of the festival ("real-time / non real-time") in which these "concerts" took place and i'm sharing them in soulseek at the moment (name's the same as here). he used a rather crappy digital camera, so the video and audio qualities aren't that great (the latter especially compared to the "real thing"... i think i counted about 50 speakers spread across the whole room (which is a rather small location anyway), some amidst the audience space) but well, better than nothing, i hope. |

short descriptions (for you to ascertain if this could be of interest, the files are rather big): first file features zicarelli/bepler. bepler starts off playing a bouzouki, with zicarelli processing the sounds in real-time, resulting in climactic, wide, beautifully but also suspenseful layers of sound. it ends with prerecorded audience reactions (laughing). mr bepler then moves on to a set of microphones and starts to mumble (seemingly vamping) incoherent, spontaneous thoughts, more and more blurring into umm "windlike" drones by dint of of mr. zicarelli's audio processing. these are soon joined in by musical fragments (heavy metal bits?) climating til bepler joins into the rock particles with an ukulele, intoning a rather silly, "love-songesque" tune. in the end: more mumbling action/onomatopoeia, this time mr zicarelli allocated the recorded sounds all over the place so one was downright engulfed with mr. bepler's dislocated streams of thought... or rather mindless babbling. of course this is not really traceable in the recording but oh well... it was really funny. loved the whole "show". |

second, there's puckette and lippe in a more multi-media based performance. they zap through the german tv programme (with mr puckette revealing a taste for lesbian porn? ;) ) soon to get stuck with the marketing channel bloomberg, in which the mayor of frankfurt was interviewd at that time. then they alter the voices of the mayor and the intervier in real-time with their own voices and an eggbeater on a chair (?!).later the images are affected, too. scenery gets deconstructed more and more, getting pretty noisy, with alot of the old people in the audience covering their ears (haha) until they are finally redeemed... pretty neat. |

final movie shows a piece by tommaso perego (milan) for violin and electronics, the latter being controlled by himself. the name of the young lady who performed the violin i sadly forgot, to be honest. her playing is sampled and shards of violin tones increasingly cover the piece, resulting once again in a rather cacophonic listening experience : ). like i said, none of the recordings do even roughly justice to the live experience, but well... hope some of you might enjoy it. if anyone is interested but doesn't have soulseek installed and doesn't want to i could also upload it to yousendit or something similar, but that would take it's time i think... |
