Air Waves

Air Waves is an interactive sound piece and a work in progress. A few bugs need to be fixed, some changes made, and more functionality will be added in the coming weeks. The table above describes the actions of the various keys.

Based on John Cage's piece Imaginary Landscape No. 4 in which he used twelve radios, Air Waves takes four stations with random loops of segments of television commercials. You now become the conductor, chosing which ones you want to play as well. The pitch and volume can be controlled in increments, but this soon will be done so that the change is continuous by holding down the appropriate key.

Variations on the piece will be done in collaboration with a few composers/musicians over the coming months.
