Programme Note
censor
a design conception
based on accentuating the relative preaudibility
of specific variables
yielded a quasi-continuum of immutable objects and linear processes,
sculpted monoliths and clear transitions of state affecting, reconceiving
abstract traits of media music
- cycles, pulse, reiteration, repetition, stasis -
via a nascent cultural penchant
toward recontextualization,
respawning the immutable
objects evaporated, rusted, veneered,
not metaphorically reseen
nor propelled into desultory instance
yet unavoidably submitting to temporality,
forcing unmeant designating properties,
creating
the smokepuppet,
the breadfan,
the kittymuzzle…
