TECTONIC: Pannotia [in progress] for large telematically connected variable instrumentation 

TECTONIC: Pannotia is a telematic work for networked realtime scores. In geology Pannotia is the name of a theorised Neoproterozoic supercontinent though to have existed at the end of the Precambrian period (650–500 Ma). Tectonic can mean both ‘the study of the earth's structural features’ and ‘the art of construction’ and this works reflects both aspects of the word’s meaning. The concept of slowly shifting plates that crush and reform each other’s placement is the central paradigm of the work. Pannotia is the third in a series that includes Tectonic: Vaalbara [2008], and Tectonic: Rodinia [2016]. In Pannotia, geographically distant performers read an interactive score that is networked to all other simultaneously open scores. The indeterminately selected texture represented in each score is communicated to all other scores and used to influence the selection, and parameters of the evolving music.

Aresti Diagrams [2020] for electric guitar and clarinet

Aresti Diagrams are a notation used in aircraft competitions to choreograph permitted aerobatic manoeuvers. The notation was developed by Spanish aviator Colonel José Luis Aresti Aguirre [1919-2003]. The notation is interpreted by two performers as a series of sonic gestures. In this version there are two recordings, each one combines 2 diagrams.

Mueller [2020] for turntable, bass clarinet, viola, cello, piano and percussion

Picture
This is an “extreme sightreading” work in which each of the 448 pages of the redacted Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, III appear in front of the ensemble on average for 270 milliseconds. Performers are asked to react the this “score” as quickly as possible, responding only to the redactions and colours. The brief 2 minute duration of the work, the reaction to what is hidden and moments of colour, reflects reaction to the real report, that is thought to have been read by about 3% of the US population.

Jingee [2020] for flute, bass clarinet, guitar and electronics

Picture
Performances
20200522 SHOCKOFTHENEW Sound Spectrum Festival
Picture
A collective "social distancing" work in which performers play a recording of honeyeaters (Noongar: Jingee) into an outdoor environment and then record three sounds at varying distances. The recordings were then arranged in chronological order by the time of day they were recorded.
A recording of honeyeaters slowed by about 20% and a recording of a clarinet multiphonic similarly stretched were they used as an underscore for the collected recordings. In the live performance, three instrumentalist perform with the final recording, using a pallet of its principal pitches.

 Iapetus Ocean [2020] for telematic ensemble

Picture
Work for telematic performance by Ecuatorial ensemble. The Iapetus Ocean formed when the Neoproterozoic supercontinent Pannotia broke apart. It is a sibling work to TECTONIC: Pannotia - but does not involve any realtime manipulation of musical materials.

Performances
​NoizeMachin!! #106 28 April 8PM AWST
Mannaitch is the Noongar word for “white cockatoo”, one of the two essential moieties of Noongar kinship. These Mannaitch were recorded on the South Perth foreshore in January. Dominant pitches from the recordings are reproduced electronically and by a solo clarinet.
