Hi all,

I want to share with the community a recent large scale work realized principally with PD.

In The Shade is an interactive sound installation and performance piece for 3 custom metal sculptures and solo cello.  In January of 2017 I had the pleasure of collaborating with Cellist Geoff Gartner on a premier of the piece in New Orleans, USA.  The cellist performs from an open score consisting of pitch collections taken from the resonant frequencies of the sound sculptures.  The installation listens to the frequency content from the solo cello and creates its own sonic content through processes of stochastic harmonization and other modes of material generation.

We were very lucky to have video artist Malcolm Smith create both a document of the entire performance (55 minutes) and an excerpts video.

I hope some of you enjoy this!  

Full version:

We of course hope to present the piece or a new version of the piece again.  If you have interest in presenting the piece feel free to get in touch.

Cheers,

Rick
