Baritone Uke and glimmer of Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring but merely a glimmer in mind or lost as a goose after the golden egg of the moment! For Sound-In Apr 1-8, 2021

I've been musically idle for about 3 months having been focusing on another muse from the past, photography in the 'film' sense. This week I had several things leading me to want to give time to an improv the current Sound-In Facebook group…

Pure Data creation, 4 loops somewhat composed and each loop captured real time.

Fell from the sky drony Fahey blues on mountain dulcimer.

Inspired by a work by composer David Beardsley titled Pause. This is in that influence and is more thought out composed than improvised and using the oscillator waves more Enoesque. For the new year.

Experiments with a new pedal I got for Christmas, dulcimer and live cassette looping on the latter part. The pedal called Meltdown is by creator Nicky Fuzzbox (https://timebox.ca).

This is a piece that I did recently for documentary put together by my son for a friend's art installation on care maps. Solo dulcimer.

Pure Data oscillator and [vline~] envelope played live and looped using 4 track cassette with endless loop tape. Two takes were done and remixed together. Created for Sound-In Event Dec 5, 2020

Dulcimer, cassette tape loops, analog delay (tape/reverse). Created for Sound-In Event Cassette Album.

Cassette tape loops, mixed and manipulated to digital.

4 track cassette tape loops of live dulcimer processed and manipulated in Pure Data. For Sound-In Cassette Event.

Mountain dulcimer response of jubilance in dark times.

3 independent dulcimer improvs done beside my cat Nellie. Remixed in-line afterwards with efx.

Acoustic improv on a hacked 12-string dreadnought I set up several years ago for slide stuff. Recording for this weekend's Sound-In Halloween Blue event.

Inspired with a cymbal sample created by Chris Vaisvil. I looped and layered his sample and improvised live dulcimer and layered that. Created for Sound-In Metal

Hanging in the air version of the traditional ghost story with a brass pipe slide on mountain dulcimer. Created for Sound-In.

4 recorded real time played 7 second dulcimer looped cells, mixed down and manipulated in Pure Data as a form of composition. Created for Sound-In.

Improv on an idea on mountain dulcimer with current times in mind. Created for Sound-In A Moment Captured event. The title is in the positive of the word and not in the flame thrower use by the the idiot in the White House, if anything liberty…

Sort of a Celtic haunt improvisation on mountain dulcimer. Created for Sound-In Harvest Moon Oct 3-4, 2020

Heavily processed dulcimer shadowing a bit of a koto.
