I have applied to exhibit some visual art that I have been working on for a while now.
Here are some examples:

Next album
I have decided to create an album of some of the things I’m working on in Max.
Each track will be a simple recording of the output of each patch with minimal post-processing.
It is because of this that I have chosen the title…

One track is finished already, out of… I haven’t decided yet.
It is a first draft of an interdisciplinary performance idea I’m working on with some other Mandurians.
I will update when I have done the next track.

More grid art
tilde~ album release on Tone List
‘Composed with Max/MSP and Garrahand percussion instruments, Æsthēsis is a foray into glitch-and-noise-based electro-acoustic ambience. Tilde~’s compositional approach forgoes lush, synth-heavy soundscapes and opts instead for close-up electronic crackles and distant metallic arpeggios. Contemplative melodies peeking through the white noise.’

Noizemaschin!! Mandurah #4
Thursday the 27th of October saw the return of Noizemaschin!! to Mandurah for the fourth time. Along with being the MC for the evening I performed a piece exploring weather data in a musical context (unfortunately I forgot to press record until after my set).
Here are some photos from the night.

Studio – Day Four
Final day in the studio, fixing up minor issues, automating, and editing.
Last of my stuff packed up and ready to go.
Leaving the place looking tidy for the next person(s).
Listening to the final stereo bounced own before sending off for mastering…at least I hope so.

Studio – Day Three
It was a bit wetter today but the sun shone through a bit.
Great view with the glistening leaves.
I even had a tiny furry visitor.
After a little EQ and mixing I bounced out the tracks for cross-referencing. This meant I could start packing up.
Here’s the recording room at the end of day three.

Studio – Day One
I got to the Pillbox Studio after midday and had lunch before I got stuck into it. The band who were in the studio previously weren’t courteous enough to tidy up after themselves, so I spent a lot of my time tidying up cables and such. Eventually I got everything where it needed to go.
I arranged all of my own gear and cables before placing microphones.
Then I was finally ready to go into the control room and check the signals.
The patch leads are very colourful.
Happy with day one.
Days two and three will be recording tracks and starting the mixdown.

Studio – Day Two
Managed to get two full sets recorded today and began to realise how tiring the process is, especially when the music is so relaxing.
I’ll try and get to the studio early tomorrow and do another take before I start editing and mixing.
