Something Like Images

For piano and sine waves. The piece is uses a Max/MSP patch. Electronic cues can be triggered by the performer using a USB footswitch, or by an engineer, simply pressing spacebar.

Program Note:

“sound opens sound

shank of globe             strings floating out

                something like images are here

                opening up avenues to view a dome

       a distant clang reaches the edifice.”

-Barbara Guest, from Dissonance Royal Traveler 

 

Something Like Images is dedicated to pianist Ricardo Descalzo and was premiered by the dedicatee at the Ppianissimo Festival, Sophia, Bulgaria.
