Electronic quad surround-sound performance | Whitechapel Gallery London | Situation – Absolute Beach Man Rubble.

An orchestral environment of 14 or more simultaneous sound generators, each consisting of evolving waveforms – rapidly morphing from white-noise to complex sine.  Generators spread over 8 instruments, their location manipulated by 2 joysticks [2 x 4 discrete XY corner locations].  Joysticks also simultaneously modifying sound characteristics such as Frequency Modulation.

“Reminded me of Tangerine Dream ..and CAN!”

‘Very happy I heard Julian play ..he is a Rock! Situation came alive!
..the music he performed stands alone by itself, but also it was so beautiful to see Sarah’s objects around, it felt like being in your own space, …and we were intruders.’

The enhanced karplus-strong algorithm was recognised by at least two mutants, though many were in altered states / tripping.  Sustained maths, instruments swirling around four speakers, Video 1 minute by Bruno Brunnet, Contemporary Fine Arts / CFA, Berlin.
