Works for electronics inspired variously by John Cage, computer code, a troubadour poem and a 1920s poster, plus the stifled sounds of a harpsichord.
New Music Show: works for electronics inspired variously by John Cage, 'Tidal cycles' computer code, a troubadour poem about distant love and a life-sized 1926 poster,' Man as Industrial Palace.' Also tonight, music inspired by a Petrarch sonnet and a sketch of a human hand by Hans Durer which essays the stifled sounds of a harpsichord and small ensemble. And soon after 11pm, Robert Worby talks to Ann Cleare who creates: "highly psychological and corporeal sonic spaces that encourage a listener to contemplate the complexity of the lives we exist within."
