This way Tipler by Oliver Scott
A generative pattern for three classical rave sounds. These noises have been used in the way they would expect: pitched, panned, delayed, etc - however I have provided all functions with the ability to travel through time in a forever changing, never repeating, endless piece.
I occasionally perform semi-generative pieces during live sets at the participatory events I co-curate for Kunst...

Larking by Robot Mother (monochord mix)
This drone was created by sampling tiny snippets of sound
and processing them with extreme timestretching software.
Timothy Crowley - 3 Bells - Interactive sound...
Please pick up the bell and swing it.
Two imac computers speak and respond to each other, through the use of their individual speakers and microphone. Each of their voices is one unique synthesised bell sound, and their response is to interact with each other, using ‘change ringing’ techniques, contained within their programs.
This installation depends on interaction from the audience.
The...
Andrea Flaminì - Macbeth Morse (To the last...
A passage from Shakespeare‘s Macbeth is translated to Morse code. The work is part of an ongoing series investigating private spaces and the smallest units of language.

Miles Bowe - Coastal Path
A precursory piece to a short film.
Recordings were made using hydrophones, exploring bodies of water in various states and locations.
Beginning with areas of ice at the bottom of a cliff, melting in the morning sun; moving underneath the sand as the tide approaches, to a stream originating from deep within a cave. Then below the waters of a sheltered harbour, until finally emerging where the...
Robert Curgenven - Silent Landscapes No.2
Nightfall by a riverside camp near Wollumbin (Mt Warning), walking in dry grass, the sharp call of a single insect emerges. Above the nearby road, power lines catch the breeze – an echo finding resonance over 3000 kilometres west at Karlu Karlu (Devil’s Marbles) in Central Australia, where the wind strikes a parallel rhythm some years before. Further north, other winds blow in grevilleas lining...
Sally Rodgers - nano
A sound work and micro sculpture by Sally Rodgers that considers the diachronic miniaturisation of computing technologies. Using sonic archeology techniques and oral testimony from three generations of the same family ‘nano’ recreates the rattle and hum of obsolete computers and couples these sounds with a meditative oral narrative. Charting the life-span of computing, the story begins...
Thaniel Ion Lee - Things We Choose To Ignore -...
In this work i attempted to make a sonic metaphor for Americas’ ignorance of and its attempt to forget its own history of eugenics . i took a found radio program about the history of california’s eugenic program, and edited out all the information that was given and left only the dead air, microphone pops, vocal ticks, breaths and other sonic debris that we usually try to ignore.
