EMPAC, Theater
February 9, 2012 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Composer, improviser, and installation artist Jonathan Chen will perform three of his new compositions for electronics, amplified violin, and amplified viola during this concert. The electronic work consists of feedback produced through a cornet, altered by changing its position, pressing or releasing its valves, and through a Max/MSP patch. The composition for violin consists entirely of softly bowed harmonics and intermittent silences. The work for viola involves both plucked and bowed sounds. Thursday, February 9, 2012, 7PM - 8PM, EMPAC, Theater, Troy, NY.
Jonathan is a Ph.D. candidate in the Electronic Arts program at Rensselaer.
