Recently I have been working on a new piece in collaboration with Jasio Stefanski for an upcoming exhibition of his work. Photosounder alternative series#Part music, part visual art, and part sound design, the collaborative series Spectral Tablature is something I’ve been doing in various forms since 2013. When sonified the plotted design singles out the portamento, isolating it from the context of the sustained frequencies. The output visually reinterprets the angles informed by the gliding notes without connecting them in the composition. The visuals were composed to place emphasis on the “transitions” or portamento. Jasio’s Reprise is based on form and color values as opposed to acoustic accuracy. The video shows the plotter rendering Jasio’s Reprise of the work shown/heard in the image/audio below. Jasio requested that we included diagonal lines in the piece so I used linear portamento on the Moog Sub 37 to create the “transitions” he was interested in seeing. To create the work I started by composing a simple sequence of notes that speed up and then slow down. The second piece is a new work in the series titled Synthetic Transitions. The first piece is Synthetic Skyline previously exhibited for the Audible Edge sound art exhibition at the Katherine Nash Gallery in Minneapolis. Jasio is showing a variety of his work including two pieces that we collaborated on together fron the series Spectral Tablature. I am pleased to be participating in an exhibition of work by Jasio Stefanski at Print Gallery in Tokyo, Japan.
