Music, etc.: Future Returns (2005)
http://musetc.blogspot.com/2008/06/future-returns-2005.html
Short pieces, student compositions, rock, techno-gizmos, and other sonic endeavors. All of the sounds heard in this piece come from only a piano. Crescendos, misty, bell-like sounds, and even a human voice emanate solely from the vibration of the piano's strings. Although this work seems wholly acoustic, the piano's strings are driven by a custom built electrical interface that utilizes a Max/MSP. The future is ever a misted landscape, no man foreknows it, but at cyclical turns. Recorded at The Knoll.
