#4 Batuhan Bozkurt - Laconicism
This collection of sound entities are presented to you with a simple idea i=
n mind: =91Organized Sound=92, once realized by its creator for distributio=
n, does not necessarily have to be locked to definite micro or macro event =
sequences in the time domain.
The works presented in this software are compositions and/or designs of =91=
sound processes=92, which provide a recipe for computers to generate sounds=
utilizing various sound synthesis techniques on the fly. These are not des=
igns of =91exactness and perfection=92, instead, the artist merely defines =
limits for a sound-event space.
1st edition of 123 cd-roms ---> 5euros
(containing both a standard standalone application that will run on Mac Os=
X >10.5 machines and a folder containing all the supercollider source code=

#3 Marinos Koutsomichalis - Malfunctions
Obscured or unwanted sounds one usually does not pay attention to, or even =
tries to eliminate as annoying are the focus of this album. Koutsomichalis =
tries to interfere with various systems and trigger hidden mechanisms - mec=
hanisms that were not meant to be, so he could acquire on purpose all sorts=
of malfunctions and explore arbitrary ways of interaction between them. Th=
ose parasitic innovations, as consequences of an unpredictable and totally =
ambiguous side-being, erode the system' s functionality to transform it int=
o something completely different (most of the times considered undesired, t=
oo) but definitely present and not less genuine. Using found electronic dev=
ices, coils, custom electromagnetic and ultrasonic transducers along with v=
arious hardware hacks and feedback techniques, he meditates on all those so=
unds-that-were-not-meant-to-be.
1st edition of 72 cdr copies ----> 5euros

#1 Marinos Koutsomichalis - Trevor Jones Studio Session vol I
A series of generative pieces hat were performed in the control room of the=
Trevor Jones Studio in York, UK, in four improvised sessions (02,03,18 and=
20 of March).
The focus was on how sound alters the aesthetic and physical qualities of t=
he site and how it challenges its functionality. It was an attempt to estab=
lish a sonorous architecture within the room.
All these efforts were scholastically recorded, so one could end up with br=
and new stand-alone fixed media works.
THIS ALBUM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ORIGINAL TREVOR JONES STUDIO SESSIONS=
!
