Res, a matter.

Here we are!
On a kind invite of Yann Seznec, today I am performing and launching officially the Xth Sense at the Scotland Music Hack Day,… rather thrilling!
Other live acts and presentations include Matthew Herbert, FOUND, Yann and Patrick Bergel.
Now the staff is setting up, and people start coming.
Check the schedule at the Hack Day homepage.

So far I have been the only author and performer of biophysical music using the Xth Sense.
I am, therefore, rather excited to share this video below. It is the premiere of a piece for the Xth Sense, trombone and double bass by Japanese composer Shiori Usui with the Red Note Ensemble, Scotland’s contemporary music ensemble.
The concert was organized in occasion of Inventor Composer Coaction, “a novel project designed to facilitate collaboration between composers and developers of bespoke digital or electronic instruments, for the creation of new music. It will take place at the Department of Music, University of Edinburgh, during the first half of 2012.”
