Electronic Jam || No-input mixer + Empress Zoia
A quick jam to break out a new mixer I got for the purpose of no-input play (i.e., using feedback loops within the mixer itself as sole sound sources). I also use the Empress Zoia as my effect chain (low-pass filter, ping-pong delay, plate reverb).
The video includes everything, from the moment I turn on the gear to the moment I turned it off. I did speed up some of the setup at the beginning. If you are impatient, the real fun begins around 3:30, when I bring in a second feedback loop.

My first official foray into the world of multimedia art. Realized using Cecilia5, Ableton Live 10 and VDMX5. Enjoy!
"It's lovely to live on a raft. We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made or only just happened. Jim he allowed they was made, but I allowed they happened; I judged it would have took too long to make so many. Jim said the moon could 'a' laid them; well, that looked kind of …

La vie dans les plis - Karen Rostron, violin; Mirna Lekic, piano
Recorded live on 07/21/2018 at the church of Saint Merri, Paris, France.
"La vie dans les plis (“life in the folds,” a title borrowed from Henri Michaux eponymous collection of poems) was commissioned by violinist Karen Rostron and pianist Mirna Lekić. In this duo, the piano and violin are treated as equal partners in a conversation at cross purposes, with only a few passing moments of true communication. Yet, echoes among their respective parts suggests the possibility of a deeper, more …
Sept caprices pour flûte seule - Roberta Michel, flute
"I was delighted when Roberta asked me to write this piece for flute solo. I knew that I was dealing with a remarkable performer who could handle pretty much anything with grace, and I was also excited by the availability of piccolo, alto, and bass flute, in addition to the standard instrument. I quickly decided to write a series of short movements of various tempi and styles, a little bit in the manner of a Baroque suite. The movements also alternate instruments, and each one is based on a …
