Abstract:

Program notes: This generative / improvisatory work uses an iPod Touch and a tactile sound transducer attached to the Overtone Fiddle's resonant body as a mobile system to lay out a variety of animated and transformed sound sources over time. About the performers: Dan Overholt: Associate Professor in the Department of Architecture, Design and Media Technology at Aalborg University, Denmark. He received a PhD in Media Arts and Technology from the University of California, Santa Barbara, a M.S. from the MIT Media Lab, and studied Music and Electronics Engineering and at CSU, Chico. As a musician, he composes and performs internationally with experimental human-computer interfaces and musical signal processing algorithms. Lars Graugaard: Free-lance composer, laptop performer and researcher. He holds a PhD in Artistic and Technological Challenges of Interactive Music from Oxford Brookes University and a MS in flute performance from the Royal Danish Academy of Music. His main interest is the systematic study of music's expressive capacity applied to score composing, realtime interactive performance, generative and emergent music.
