| Building musical robots has been an ongoing activity in the Logos Labs since the very beginning in the late sixties. It is a logical outflow of our investigations into the development of new tools for musical expression. A mere consequence of the laboratory research into experimental instrument building. The automats documented individually on this CD are all pure acoustical: drums, organpipes, metal tubing, strings, bells, wood… However, these sound sources are exclusively activated by electromechanical means.
Next to compositions by Sebastian Bradt, Barbara Buchowiec, Moniek Darge, Kris De Baerdemacker and Godfried-Willem Raes, this CD contains my piece for SPHK, for automated saxophone and an improvisation i did on a robot called <Thunderwood'> >> ordering information |
