Korean Electro- Acoustic
I went to a sound performance by the Music and Performing Arts Professions at Steinhart this past Tuesday. It was a performance by Doo-Jin Ahn and Donoung Lee. Mr Lee performed the piece, Alco XII. This was a performance of algorithm Composition and composition series by unique algorithm that the composer himself programs and controls with sensors.
The sounds of the materials are directly sampled in the concert hall and transformed in real-time. The piece was controlled with various sensors, such as the infrared and a multiple of potentiometers designed for this piece. The artitst used MAX.
All the sounds for thie piece was recorded and played real-time on stage by the artist. Mr. Lee recorded samples of his breath, water drops and pebbles in a bowl... etc. On stage, he was manipulating the sensors to produce different layers of the sounds that he had recorded. An interactive performance!
