MONDAY NOVEMBER 20th at 9PM EST
ALMOST LiVE iN THE STUDiO . naw
http://www.ambientpingradio.com
Tune in for a very special ALMOST LiVE iN THE STUDiO
performance by naw! Specially created for AMBiENT PiNG RADiO,
this performance is a stunning and evocative work that fully
demonstrates the artistry and wonder that is naw.
The following press release from Neil Wiernik of naw
elaborates on this performance.
10pm on a dark rainy November evening 13 stories high
This work was generated, composed and recorded in real time by
naw (neil wiernik), 13 stories above Toronto overlooking the city.
The composition is based on a series of real time improvisations,
based on my interpretation of the cityscape I was looking out on,
at the time, creating a real time soundtrack to the city.
This work is part of my ongoing research into generative
soundtrack composition. Having worked with various different
kinds of languages to try to create generative aural landscapes
over the years I have realized that the language used to create
self-evolving work has as much to do with the results as the
source data. What I tried to do with this work was create a
series of data circumstances that would interact with the
software environment I created. I wanted to explore the
various algorithmic changes that the data would serve
to this software environment and, in turn, the results
of the different interactions between inputs, similarly
to how we as people interact with various stimuli
in our daily routines.
I created a space where audio data and numeric data could
interact and play off each other to create the final result, which
is one such landscape soundtrack, where field recordings and
generated sounds can all co-exist as they might or might not in any
given environment.The main premise of these soundtracks are to
explore how these aural landscapes, even when created by a
digital mediator are natural, organic occurrences, much like
walking down the street or driving down a highway we piece
together the sounds around us to create a soundtrack.
This work was created exclusively for AMBiENT PiNG RADiO,
November 10th 2006.
