Sound source is The Crutch (gotta think up a better name, but that'll do for now), which is an old wooden crutch where the bottom part can swivel, and a guitar string is attached going from one of the height-adjustment screw holes up to the hand…

A muchly modified recording of a stringed device that may someday be made into a sort of aeolean harp if'n I can get the parts (tuners, mainly). At the moment, it's just four brass-wound strings hanging from the improvised bridge that was originally…

More EHX Voice Box vocoder controlled by a Gakken mini-synth into an EHX Stereo Memory Man. Submitted to Sound-In for 17-24/3/2022.

More EHX Voice Box manipulations, this time on vocoder setting with a Gakken SX-150 MkII as the modulating source. Submitted to Sound-In "What will Music be in the future" for 10-17/3/2022.

Thought I'd give this piece the same title as the Sound-In event (3-10/3/2022) to which it was submitted, since, entirely by accident, it came out sounding like that phrase being repeated continuously if you use your imagination enough.

Two EHX devices; Voice Box, and Stereo Memory Man. Original sound is voice only, with a loop created on the SMM and extra vocalisations on top. Submitted to Sound-In "Peace" for 24/2-3/3/2022.

Test recording of voice modified by a EHX Voice Box on vocoder setting; the modulating signal is the sound from a one-string instrument made from an old crutch. Post production involved adding two copies of the original mono track, panned slightly…

Title inspired by the symmetrical nature of the piece. The original recording was the sound of striking various parts of a gourd bowl (a round bowl-like thing made by cutting the bottom from a dried gourd of some sort - I don't know, it was given…

Two dings on a small bell for a bicycle, stretched then slowed in tempo. Submitted to Sound-In for 10-17/2/2022.

A recording from my installation The Piano Travels at the NAiSA North Media Arts Centre in South River, Ontario (https://naisa.ca/). An old upright piano, with micro-radio transmitters transmitting to various radios around the room. Sounds are…

Some noisy vocalisations stretched and reverbed. Submitted to a themeless Sound-In for 27/1 - 3/2/2022.

Attempt at playing a blues-style tune on harmonica, that occasionally goes a bit wobbly on the rails. Submitted to Sound-In "Wild Blue Yonder" for 20-26/1/2022.

A bit of audio plasticity here, in that I've taken the sounds from Not Just Dreaming and run them through various effects processes to give this little ditty. Also submitted to Sound-In “Dreaming About Plastic Noises” for 13-20/01/2022.

Percussing a bunch of plastic objects, destined for the recycling bin but making one more contribution before they go. Played with a pair of disposable wooden chopsticks, until the dropping of one brought the piece to a somewhat premature end…

Solo tenor sax. Originally I was going to leave it plain, but then thought that some reverb would give it more of a dream-like feel. Submitted to Sound-In "Dreaming of Music" 6-13/1/2022.

Unadulterated recording of an ABS pipe didjeridoo. Submitted to Sound-In "You say you want a resolution?" for 30/12/2021 - 6/1/2022.

Just straight-up acoustic guitar, with no trickery. Submitted to Sound-In Christmas event 23-30/12/2021.

A combination of two very different recordings. One is the sound of a very old console radio desperately trying to work, that has been sped up several times; the other is a collection of vocal noises run through effects. Submitted to Sound-In…

Two separate recordings layered on top of one another: a large metal tray being struck by a soft percussion mallet, and a window with wind blowing through the frame from a storm outside. No alteration was made to the tray recording; of the window…

From a little 4" reel of tape, this is the first attempt I made at using a Time Lag Accumulator set-up, where the tape is strung between two machines (in this case a Tandberg 3341X and a cheap Sears portable), with the initial sound recorded on…
