Inspired by work in Australian Indigenous communities over
the last 25 years and European microtonal harmonic systems,
as well as explorations
in Pythagorean Harmonics and Just Intonation combined with concepts of time
and place borrowed from the Indian classical raga system.
The slowly evolving work builds on natural harmonies and
subtracted or interpolated fundamentals, it flows between
sublime and challenging sonorities at an almost imperceptible rate.
DRONESCAPES combines live composition and orchestration with granular
and spectral manipulation technologies and binaural placement
to create an immersive experience that attempts to challenge concepts
of time, harmony and resonance, responding musically, emotively and intuitively to
the immediate natural environment.
