SONIC FORMS

edited October 2019 in Electronic
Brand new Dynamic Synthesis album is here:



Sonic environments for public and private spaces
Roland Kuit - KYMA

Dynamic synthesis is used to create information streams.
Lissajous orbits on van der Pol oscillator.
A system of parametric equations: {\displaystyle x=A\sin(at+\delta ),\quad y=B\sin(bt),} x=A\sin(at+\delta ),\quad y=B\sin(bt)
Design principles: balance, harmony, gradation, repetition, contrast, dominance.
Design elements: line, shape, size, direction, texture, hue/tone
This concept deals with how much information is needed in nano timbre / time to get meaning. The information comes from so-called transients. The duration varies between a small part of a period, from 1 usec to 3 or 4 milliseconds. The meaning of this 'articulation' is identity. This onset as impulse makes it possible to distinguish the identities of these sonic forms and transforming them to autonomous audio sculptures.

    SONIC FORMS - Roland Emile Kuit - Worldpremiere

    Sonic environments | Orbits for public and private spaces 

    In the tradition of Takehiha Kosugi and Alvin Lucier, Kuit needs to explore the fundamental physics of acoustics whereby the concept of time and space as a vital continuum is morphed with its surroundings. 

    In his lab, Kuit explored the behavior of orbiting Lissajous figures:

    Dynamic synthesis is used to create information streams on a van der Pol oscillator.

    Design principles: balance, harmony, gradation, repetition, contrast, dominance.

    Design elements: line, shape, size, direction, texture, hue/tone 

    A mutual relationship exists between the elements and their structure. The structure provides the elements with their specific, perhaps changing, meaning in nano timbre/ time.

    This information comes from so-called transients whereby the duration varies between a small part of a period, from 1 usec to 3 or 4 milliseconds.

    'Articulation' functioning as identity.

    This onset as impulse makes it possible to distinguish the identities of these sonic forms and transforming them to autonomous audio sculptures.

    The structure works as a context.

    The elements determine which structural measures they can be subjected to in order for their identity to be enhanced, for their meaning to be differentiated and extended.

    Luciano Giambastiani makes use of clarinets in different registers to provide a sound world that is based on the broad spectrum of instrumental techniques associated with contemporary music, passing through materials defined by pitch, multiphonics, keyed percussion and the classic rough sonorities of the frullatos.

    Rodrigo Castellanos contributes the electroacoustics through digital processing, where the aural richness is not always easy to explain, but certain techniques may be recognized, such as sampling and transposition of the sound captured by the computer, synthesis, delay and reverb among others, all in real time.

    Luciano Giambastiani (1978): Luciano is an interdisciplinary artist, musician and Argentine composer from the province of Jujuy. He is trained as a clarinetist and composer at the ESM de Jujuy, Argentine Catholic University and Manuel de Falla Conservatory.

    Dante Tanzi (1951), graduated in Philosophy from Milan University and went on to study composition, electroacoustic music, musical informatics and musical analysis. Since 1985 he has been working at L.I.M., the Musical Informatics Laboratory of the Computer Science Department, University of Milan as audio and MIDI technical coordinator. Besides taking an active part in the many cultural and artistic initiatives of the laboratory, he has participated in research projects on the development of s/w tools for musical and multimedia performance and pilot projects for the recuperation of musical heritages. This variety of experiences has led him to explore the intersections between Humanities and Musical Informatics, while investigating the relationships between compositional activity and scientific experimentation. This investigation, in turn, has been influenced by a general reflection on the changes in the communicative processes brought about by digital technologies. The Institution Founded and directed by Goffredo Haus, the Musical Informatics Laboratory (L.I.M.) came into existence in The L.I.M. has carried out research projects for IEEE Computer Society of Washington, for the National Italian Research Council (CNR), and developed projects for the Scala Theatre of Milan and Bolshoi Theatre of Moscow. The research conducted at L.I.M. primarily concerns the study of methodologies for the analysis, the formal description and the synthesis of musical processes, and the development of s/w tools for multimedia performances.
    1981 University degree in Philosophy. Graduated with first class honors After harmony, studied electroacoustics music at CEDME, Milan, and musical informatics at EMIT, Milan Studied musical analysis and counterpoint at Sesto San Giovanni Civic Music School Studied musical analysis and composition techniques at Milan Civic Music School, Contemporary Music Section Participated in Gyorgy Ligeti s composition masterclass at the international Academy of Music in Novara (Italy) Studied Electronic Music at Como Conservatory.

The aim of the study was to design innovative software tools for musical and multimedia performance, based on audio and video elaboration systems. During this period the problems linked to the implementation of automatic functions for the manipulation of musical texts were studied Three-year research project entitled Software tools for the analysis/synthesis of musical and multimedia processes. Aim of the study: to design, create and test innovative software tools for the analysis/synthesis of musical and multimedia processes based on systems of automatic elaboration of video and audio signals.

    About Tea Trip:
    Many years ago Dante Tanzi was for some days in Salerno, south Italy, with friends musicians who were having rehearsals. One day, while they were around a table drinking a tea, the singer (who was from Senegal) started to sing a song imitating the Senegal women when they call each other. Some of these moments were recorded; some fragments are scattered in the piece. (First Performance on acousmonium Motus: August 22, 2013, – Festival Futura, Crest, France).

    About the music:
    Estalactitas (Stalactites) – 2002.
    This piece, created in 2002, can be understood as a rhythm-based study. It is composed of eight sounds of different processed percussion instruments, organized in order to respond to the formal scheme «A-B-A´».
    Revelaciones del ensueño de un mate (Revelations of the dream of a mate) – 2008
    Revelations of the dream of a mate, is elaborated from mate´s sounds.
    The mate is a South-American infusion prepared by steeping dry leaves of yerba mate in hot water. Drinking mate in a hollow gourd with a metal straw is a social practice in Argentina. The flavor of brewed yerba mate is strongly vegetal and herbal.
    At the beginning, when you start drinking, it plays a noisy and long sound ―similar, but not equal, to the white noise―. After that, when you finish drinking, you can hear little sounds formed by short bubbles, which have determined pitches. Only those two types of sounds, were chosen to compose the present piece.
    Revelations of the dream of a mate has a «A-B-A´-B´-coda» structure.
    Some parts of the piece were written on paper ―like instrumental music― in order to get counterpoints that you can hear as clear notes or as filtered sounds.

    Ricardo de Armas. (1957).
    The musical work of Ricardo de Armas is based on different kinds of procedures like intervention, appropriation, citation, and redefinition.
    He is a composer, sound artist and at the same time he is cellist of the Symphonic Orchestra in Bahía Blanca since 1988.

    About the music:
    The world premiere of Tactile Utterance took place on 23 June 2017 in the Kampa Museum – The Jan and Meda Mládek Foundation in Prague (CZ) for the opening of a special Tomas Rajlich retrospective: Zcela abstraktní retrospektiva. Composed especially for the occasion, Kuit’s three part work Tactile Utterance, expresses 50 years of painting by Tomas Rajlich.
    Kuit’s recent research into new compositional methods, algorithms, and spectral music came together in this work. His aim was to capture the process of painting: how can we relate acrylate polymers on canvas to sound? BRUSH: using bowing without ‘tone’ as a metaphor for brushing a tangible thickness of color; pointing out the secants with very short percussive sounds on the string instruments as grid; dense multi-phonics as palet knifes — broadened textures smeared out and dissolving into light.

    @rolandkuit , I came across this on Twitter and thought that this thread was a good place to "dump" it:
     
    A night in memory of all the victims who died as a result of epidemics worldwide ...
    Humanity has known many epidemics that have led to a pandemic. For the 40 most important composer Roland Emile Kuit has created formulas that give the different epidemics a “sound”. Kuit developed models to create micro sounds, as a reflection on, for example, the COVID-19 pandemic. Audio taken as a virus can only exist in the symbolic dimension of evolution until they find a host. As we can be the hosts for these 40 works of sound art, resonating with our collective history as a sonic memorial.
    This sonic memorial, Monumentum, had its world premiere at RADIOARTE ITALIA in September 2020. With Monumentum, Kuit takes us through the 40 most important epidemics and pandemics in human history. Monumentum can be heard in The Night of Contemporary Music on December 16, 2020 from 02:00 to 07:00 in the early morning of December 17. And then listen back forever via broadcast missed. The composition was in the hands of Kees van de Wiel and the program is presented by Gerard Meulenberg.
