ESB Catalogue

Here's the catalogue for the open lab I'm involved in...

Mandible

A few tweaks, and I was able to get a good signal out of the jawbone mic, and get something recorded. Unfortunately, my effects unit isn't keen on non balanced signal it seems, so buzzed a bit (removed in most of the track below). Will tweak things and bit and try and find a decent housing for the thing. The slightly distorted signals added all kinds of worthwhile extraneous noise once overlayed. Definitely worth further investigation.

Jawbone mic?

I've yet to check this works - electret microphone fitted into jawbone. I quite like the filling of broken sections with modelling putty, which is something to look into. Sounds tomorrow. Potentially.

Labs and sounds

Here's the next thing I'm up to...

And here's some recent noises:

UnTongues

I did a little performance on Saturday in Hoult's Yard...

For some reason I can't upload it, so here's the link:

Keeper

Here' some images of what I let lurk in Whistle Art Stop's roof space in Haltwhistle for a bit (I'm woefully late at updating with this, but I'm trying....)

A Profound Encounter

I recently had a sound piece in Basic.fm and The Newbridge Project's 'reuse aloud' broadcast. Here's what I said about it:

“Perception of the profound experience has changed over time. What could at one point have been described as angelic visitation, at another time is attributed to different sources. Using altered audio from calls made to the Nuforc UFO hotline, I aim to capture a profound experience that is beyond context, shedding light on the happening itself, rather than its cause.”



Now it's been broadcast, I've put it up on a bandcamp page for free download if you're so inclined. Full info on the Reuse Aloud project available here: www.basic.fm?page_id=2516
