Description:

[AUDIO ca. 25'] You are listening to a thin slice/rendering of a 3 CD spatial surround project (called "Froggus Housatonicus") done in conjunction with visual artist Joy Wulke for an exhibit at the Housatonic Museum in Bridgeport, CT. It uses frog sounds that have been manipulated, sculpted, and vastly digitally altered. The more "real" sounds of water, and bamboo ritual-flute plays in stark contrast above the digital-franken-frog soundworld- yet it all seems to meld in a hyper-real fashion. The three CDs were created so that their lengths are different, and when they were put on infinite loop, the whole work would not repeat for an enormous span of time. For me, Nature is the ultimate true "minimalist": same materials, different timings, different sonic interactions, different experience.
