Jack Herscowitz

Soundscapes [audio tracks] On-site and online June 4th:
Outside Tatum
“Outside Tatum” is a piece in an ongoing series of improvisations using live electronics to process and loop field recordings. These improvisations treat environment sounds as artistic co-creators rather than sounds separate from “music,” aiming to improvise with the natural soundscape in which the composer finds himself. All of the electronic processing was performed by the composer using Max/MSP alongside the live field recordings with very little post-production. The title, like all pieces in this series, refers to the location where the piece was recorded: outside Tatum Café in Santa Clarita.
