Program Notes: |
While traveling - and wanting to remember the experience - photographs are usually taken of people and places. Not being the most diligent about getting photos developed, several trips usually get mixed together. Snapshots on a Circle is an aural collage of the moods and interactions of the people and places where they occurred in the photographs.
The title, Snapshots on a Circle, has a double meaning. The first is more literal in the sense that several of the photographs were taken during an extended lunch at a cafe on a plaza. The second is more universal in that most travels, no matter how long or how far, eventually wind their way back to their point of origin.
This piece was realized through the use of granular synthesis, spectral reshaping, and resampling of vocal samples and computerized instruments.
