Here's
mine:
I was
swimming in a pool of mercury, and when I emerged I had silver snakes instead of
hair. And I shook off the snakes and revelled in the glory of sudden
hairlessness, and realized this was my destiny, to wander smiling and naked
through the world, reflecting.

Sure, I can post the descriptions of each
clip....I guess I need to make a sumission myself too! I am
behind.
Go ahead and send me your descriptions now. I go
yours, Per.

Subject: Re: EXPLAIN your 10th
Anniversary Birthday 30 second tune
I'm very partial to acapella vocal looping stuff, I
love what I hear from Rick (I wanna hear more from that show, Rick!) and
Rainer in the collection. I'm familiar with what Bjork and Imogen Heap have
done in this direction, if anyone has recommendations (your own music
included) I'd love to hear them.
It'd be nice to have the
explanations together on a page. Krispen, could we host a page on your site,
or on Box.net? Or LD, Kim?
About my own submission: I'm lucky in that
30 seconds is the normal length of the loops I make, since they're 30-second
cassettes. I did four tracks of improv nylon-string direct through a Studio
Projects tube mic pre, into a Yamaha four-track. Two tracks are clean, two
are fuzz (Effector13 TBD). I did a lot of pitch-shifting with the speed
control, which shoots the tracks up an octave with a bit of a "whoosh" which
I'm partial to. Overall, the low fidelity stands out compared to a lot of
the other tracks, but that's part of what I like about the
medium.
Two weeks left! C'mon, more submissions! We should aim for
100 loops.

I just went to Krispen's site for the 10th Anniversary 30
second looping project
and was really blown away at all the really
interesting and cutting edge music
I hear there.
I thought it
would be very educational for everyone to explain how they put their
particular piece together.
