Lead Lozenges LL4
My good friend Michael Toepfer owns and runs the Lead Lozenges music label. He has done me a great favor and released my tape on his label.
http://lead-lozenges.format.com/ll4
It’s called Clipped Bus because I analyzed a bunch of popular noise music signals and concluded they were mostly suffering from clipping so I cobbled together a fun noise supercollider program to make loud granular synthesized tracks.
Here’s a sample to listen to https://archive.org/details/clipped-bus-sample
Cultural Deprivation Tank
Finally after a year-long disappearance the Edmontonian album “Dispatches from the Cultural Deprivation Tank” reappears. Originally released on Digital Dizzy records until bandcamp unceremoniously dumped their entire label, killing off an estimated 500 to 2000 albums.
Here’s the album: https://suddenmomentrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/dispatches-from-the-cultural-deprivation-tank

Mapping kinect to space to midi. Basically the spiral goes from low midi notes to high midi notes. Then if you are close enough to the kinect it will trigger that sound.
