COMPOSING IN AN ECOSYSTEMIC PERSPECTIVE

Inhalt:

Analysis and discussion of various compositional examples (with a focus on"live electronics" and sound installations), including a focus on technical set-ups, signal processing, the relationship to space, timbre, noise, and environment (feedback, nonlinear dynamics, emergent properties). Examples drawn from various authors, and of course from my own practical work as a composer. Programming examples in Kyma and Pure Data.
