PS Quartet No. 2 – for electronic ensemble

PS Quartet No.2 is here! Five of EMEWS members recorded a version (Alex MacColl-Artrip, Sean Monaghan, Jacob Joslin, Ebony Swain, Gavin Langley), but four or more people can perform the piece. The only hardware needed besides the computer (either Mac or PC) is a Playstation DualShock controller. The interested ensemble can perform it with Logitech game controllers (F310 or similar on both Mac and PC) or XBox controller (Mac only). The piece runs on SuperCollider, a multi-platform audio software.

The links below contain score and SuperCollider patches. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Seven Bird Watchers – for electronic ensemble

Seven Bird Watchers (2019) for a drum machine ensemble.  For a performance, three or more drum machine players change parameters of the machine according to the score. The pulse of the drum machines is synced to a customized sync track that fluctuates seven times between slow and fast. Three percussive instruments make bird-like chirping when they are on speedy tempo.

The score is available at the following link.

The sync signals are downloadable in the following link in three formats: mp3, SuperCollider file (.scd), and mp4 (video).
