Day 2 - Friday the 13th 
8pm Densité - Concert
 Benjamin O'Brien » Location: CCRMA Stage
"Densité" was written in the audio software languages of SuperCollider and Paul Koonce's PVC. "Densité" documents the interactions between the density of samples being selected and the dimensions of the space in which they are realized. Depending on particular sets of heuristics, different exponential models and soundscape audio files determine percussion sample playback parameters which are, in turn, recorded. These audio segments are then convolved with varying types of impulses responses, resulting in different sonic spaces. "Densité?" focuses on subverting the inherent sonic qualities of percussion instruments as a result of temporal sequence and their individual placement within particular spaces.

Diptiq
 Benjamin O'Brien » Location: Listening Room
"Diptiq" for computer playback "Diptiq" is a documented solo improvisation with instruments written in the computer music language SuperCollider. The audio output signal of a variety of synthesizers is directed to specific audio busses to be read and shared by selected synthesizers. While these selections are unique to the human performer's musical aesthetic, the fluctuating frequency and amplitude values influence synthesis parameters, creating sonic instability. "Diptiq" explores how the unpredictability of common audio signals combined with human intention can yield moments of chaos and cohesion.

The schedule is a major guideline. There is no guarantee events will take place at the announced timeslot.
