A whistlestop tour of Burma for the headphone tourist. When I have the time, I will extend this into a full-length CD; in the meantime, a full-length version titlted 'Burmese Daze' is available which adds a second long teseelation track some thirty minutes long. | |

| ten | 22.1 MB | An exercise in tessellation: mosaic or juxtaposition in a coherent pattern. Many things in Burma are recycled, so isolated is the country from the world. So: I took ten moments of sound as my puzzle pieces. A few edges meet. This premiered as my contribution to Field Effects, a night of live field recording art I hosted on December 14, 2001. Some of the moments: circumambulating a Buddhist paya; my wife thumping a hollow stalagtite; swinging in Rangoon; within an irrigiation cistern in Bagan; a walk through the dusk in the Shan state hills. (Composed with crossfades only: no additional processing, splicing, or manipulation.) |
| one | 3.9 MB | One of the moments considered above, echoing its neighbors, toured and scoured and reconfigured from the inside out. An exercise in palindromic composition. |
