Metaphone Sounding (excerpt) by s o n o c e r n . o r g published on 2012-06-11T02:59:20Z This is an excerpt from a 14 member ensemble piece using metaphones (see http://sonocern.org/metaphone for more description of the instrument). The piece was written as a tribute to Matthew Sperry, a friend, fellow improvisor and supporter of both the metaphone and other of my homemade instruments and performed by a diverse group of musicians on a wide range of string instruments. The original piece was recorded at Jack Straw Studios in Seattle by Doug Haire and broadcast during a Sonarchy radio show on the evening of a memorial concert in 2005. The 28 minute piece remains unpublished but I circulated copies to participants and friends in the weeks following the concert. A version appeared some time later with a different title: Muzik for Qliphotic Meditation. Unsure exactly how that happened..the mysteries of the internet. dk Genre 1 bit noise meditation Comment by s o n o c e r n . o r g @john-knott-1: John, I like to think of it as richly rugged foreground music. This was a 14 member string ensemble. Each had the metaphone attached to their instrument and they were given 2 instructions: find a tone and sustain it. 2014-05-28T03:18:22Z
