Hi everyone! I'm a composer & audio developer. I also like fountain pens, mechanical keyboards, software-defined radio, leftist politics & learning new things.

My music tends toward the glitchy, noisy, microtonal side of things, and I like to use Max/MSP and incorporate audio samples from my software-defined radio hobby. You can find my music at my site, SoundCloud & YouTube:

I'm working on a large-scale for and with soloists.

What should I listen to for inspiration?

Any time period, any style -- I'm interested in seeing different ways of combining these forces, and studying the nuts and bolts of .

If you're a , director, or who has wrestled with this, what would you say are the key do's and don'ts of writing for this combination?

Hey folks!
Do you have suggestions on how to notate live electronics parts in a score? I'm looking for ideas to represent the volume mixer for each processing, which includes fading in/out and crossfading effects

in any case, boosts are appreciated ;)

botechiatales,

@celesteh @composers

Yes, I'm using 3 faders and the lack of automation is for performativity.

For now, I'm using staves with dashed lines to represent volume with a thicker line moving up and down for volume changing. The image show a crossfading part.

I was thinking whether there would be a solution that occupies less space on paper...

botechiatales,

@celesteh @composers

Speaking as someone who performs live electronics sometimes, I don't think DAW-like notation makes me think as a replacement to the computer nor makes me play less expressively. I think that performers who think like that have a more traditional approach to music, and most likely wouldn't perform such music in the first place.

Nonetheless, the percussion staff seems a very space saver solution. I'll try that out, thanks!

botechiatales,

@mosgaard @celesteh @composers

In the same staff of the vocal part could become ambiguous with the dynamics of the voice itself. For this, a new percussion staff as suggested would remove that ambiguity.

botechiatales,

@mcmullin @composers a friend showed me years ago a vst for choir that could sing spoken parts. You could write the lyrics in the IPA alphabet, and then they would sing. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the vst, but there is a solution indeed!

Indeed a very hard question. It's like trying to explain to a foreigner your own accent. When it comes to detailing the accent of someone else is much easier. Usually, I answer that question telling something about technical things that I worry about during writing music, and musical or extra-musical inspirations that I would like to put in my music (which is, again, speaking about someone else, I guess).

botechiatales,

@mcmullin @composers @contemporarymusic
I do agree w/ you, there's no need to find one's voice, since it comes to a composer at some point in his/her life as a way to reflect their concerns on art/society/etc. That said, I really don't know where to draw the line between one's own voice and a dependency of some compositional techniques. Perhaps reaching the same desired result w/ different techniques is a voice, and consciously repeating again and again the same techniques is dependency?

botechiatales, to experimentalmusic

Fellow composers, are there any music for solo piano from the late 50 or 40 years that sounds refreshing to you?
By refreshing, I mean from a technical and/or aesthetical standpoint, not resembling too much the more traditional repertoire

botechiatales,

@villares só agora vi tua apresentação... tá fazendo doutorado em qual instituto/faculdade?

botechiatales,

@villares se te interessar, depois dá uma procurada no Nics (Núcleo interdisciplinar de comunicação sonora). Tem vínculo com o IA, mas fica no prédio da reitoria

não sei se é tua praia, mas o pessoal lá curte juntar essas coisas de música com visual em processing

botechiatales,

@villares olha, devo dar uma passada pela Unicamp lá por outubro, qualquer coisa dá pra combinar alguma coisa pra te apresentar melhor o Nics

faz uns anos que não vou lá, mas acho que parte do pessoal que eu conhecia ainda trabalha lá

botechiatales,

@villares acho que vão curtir bastante!
