Abyss - at the Zoloft (2011-12-19)
Live from the Zoloft (New Ipswitch, NH) on December 29, 2011. Performance photos from Kathleen Seidel and Lou Eastman.
I used the setup shown here, expect that at the show I had the reverb unit between the mixer output and the amp. The underlying drone comes from the self-oscillating Grunge distortion pedal and the other pedals that follow it. I played the Deluxe Memory Man (which was in the mixer’s effects loop, and which was itself patched in a partial feedback loop) as the “lead” instrument, mainly using the Filter and Delay knobs to control pitch. I used the 300ms/reverb setting and had Feedback at the maximum setting.
The Zoloft is a small and intimate venue, and the audience was invited to paint a mural while I played, so there is a bit of crowd noise, mostly in the first minute or so but here and there throughout. I edited out a spot where someone accidentally bumped into the tripod on which my Zoom H4 recorder was mounted.

Seems like I did a fair amount of music stuff this year.

A Csound rendering of La Monte Young’s “The Base 9:7:4 Symmetry in Prime Time When Centered above and below The Lowest Term Primes in The Range 288 to 224 with The Addition of 279 and 261 in Which The Half of The Symmetric Division Mapped above and Including 288 Consists of The Powers of 2 Multiplied by The Primes within The Ranges of 144 to 128, 72 to 64 and 36 to 32 Which Are Symmetrical to Those Primes in Lowest Terms in The Half of The Symmetric Division Mapped below and Including 224 within The Ranges 126 to 112, 63 to 56 and 31.5 to 28 with The Addition of 119.”
You need Csound (which is free: http://csounds.com) to run this.
Revised 2011-12-29 to separate all harmonics that are twin primes to opposite sides of the stereo image. The base 4, 7 and 9, and all higher harmonics that are not twins, are in the center. Also corrected a harmonic that was wrong in the initial version. The download link has changed.
