CC 1 Sem 2 Project "Eno in the Mist"

This electric/acoustic performance piece created a few problems, the major one being that just prior to the performance and recording date my performer had to pull out. This meant a totally new project had to be devised and another performer found. The original idea was conceived to involve the didgeridoo as the instrument so this piece which involves electric guitar meant a whole different approach. The piece, with Tristan Louth-Robins on guitar is my representation of what is happening in relation to the logging of the rain forests. Bar the sounds of the forest and the wind (which were generated using Plogue FFT bidules, spectral gates) the rest of the sounds are that of the guitar, both playing live and sampled loops that were recorded prior to performance. Below is a screen shot of the Plogue patch used plus a mp3 of the piece titled 'Eno in the Mist'.
