about

BATC concerns materials and technologies not yet completely available, perceivable, or comprehendible. I started working on this transmission of architectural materials in the early days of March 2020. I worked manically on the piece as I adjusted to the new temporal and mental shifts brought on in spring 2020. Laboring with the sonic mass I had accumulated in the DAW was more of an act of stress release than an enjoyable process of composing music. As much as I tried to manage the chaotic job site, I eventually abandoned the work. I found the dense material was unmanageable and unlistenable. I ran across the project folder 10 months later when I was looking for source material as input for a new audio processing technique. With this new system, I could modulate pitch in an idiosyncratic manner at the sample level. This method allowed me to stretch, modify, and transform an audio file in extremely subtle ways. With this type of processing, the mess I had walked away from slowly became the structure I had previously envisioned. The construction and transmission I was striving for could finally be achieved. 32 minutes of sample frame modulation and custom modal synthesis coalesce to form a dense yet simple aural glare.

Recorded March 2020-April 2021
Baltimore Maryland
Mastered by Giuseppe Lelasi.
