you might have interest in Ryoji Ikeda's release "+/-" (on Touch) which among other things has tracks that showcase certain acoustic phenomenon as tones sounding very different depending on how your head is oriented to the speakers. think panasonic but ultra polished/clean... There is also an artist I am as of late very much into by the name of Toshiya Tsunoda who is recording what he calls "standing waves"-my understanding is this the acoustic phenomenon of the exact point in an environment where a sound souce meets its echo within that environment...this particular "sound point" is what he is after recording in different environments with different sound sources. Excellent subtle ambience, available through Anomalous Records (no affiliation). those are starting points :) -Thad --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
