DIGITAL IMAGERY, AUDIO + TEXT - VERSION 1.0

Glenn Bach's Round Length of the Room continue's Bach's artistic mapping of his urban surroundings, presenting an image which is a second-generation spectrogram: sound is extracted from a photograph, then flipped back into the image in an indefinitely long process. The piece's title is a found poem derived from multiple BabelFish translations of the title of the original photograph, "Fourth Street and Redondo Boulevard, Long Beach."

Cardarelli Luigia's Fire, Water, Air, Earth uses MIDI audio and animated gifs to present an abstract representation of the four primary medieval elements.

AUDIO, TEXT + MIDI - VERSION 1.0

Trace Reddell's Machinery For Dreaming is an audio construct based on a textual source, Thomas De Quincey's "Suspiria de Profundis." The text is translated into raw MIDI data which is then processed using one of the artist's self-designed patches for Reaktor. The resulting audio, a series of clicks, beeps, static and synth, abstracts the original material while creating a new art surface; one level of its palimpsest has already been completed by its very composition.
