Expelling and Diffusing

'Expelling and Diffusing' was created as part of an assignment for a class studying sound composition. The piece seeks to reflect the nature of sound as having the ability to be plasticized, or sculpted as an art material. The work contains sound produced by computers, synthesizers, recorded sounds from the environment, and voice. The sound is filtered using EQ and manipulated digitally to create resonance and to give the listener a sense of stretching spatial qualities where sound is expelled from different locations in a plane, but also seems to diffuse from the air with no particular point of origin. Run Time: 7:09.

This rocks. Don't listen to it while you're trying to be zen, though. May make you fuzzy in a good way instead.

I just listened to this while at work with headphones on. I enjoy your placement - I love the feeling of sound moving from one end of my head to the other, and the sudden movement to the center, sudden appearance of something that sounded like office noise but then I realized it in your piece...I'm not being terribly articulate about this, so I'll just sum up - it's good stuff.
