APOD0031 Ben Kudler. Computer Music for Dorks. Episode Nineteen

This episode we dive into the simple but far reach wild world of FM synthesis, we are talking frequency modulation. When you swat that radio dial to FM you are utilizing this fine process of modulation. FM was tinkered out in the synth jerrkshops of the 70s, later commercialized and sold world wide, becoming an unforgettable and unignorable sound of pop and experimental music alike. The synthesis style is special to the CMD crew because, while it can be crafted using analog parts, it’s extremely difficult and this process is nearly always used with digital machines, like computers, and it’s computers that really helped FM find its’ way into the world’s heart.

APOD0029 Ben Kudler. Computer Music for Dorks. Episode Eighteen

Poetry is read and spoken –blathered– but the actual sounds that splunk off of the tongue to roof of mouth contact filtered through the lips is rarely seen as nice onto themselves. UNTIL RIGHT NOW. Computer Music For Dorks explores the repetitive and guttural world of computer-y poetry. Computer-y? Well not all of this stuff was created using a computer, some of these poems were even made before the first computers were being built at Bell Labs. The commonality is that they all could have been generated using a computer, but instead these writers had to slog it out and manually see the realization of the algorithms out. The results are both visually confusing and auditorily bizarre, as for a reading experience, they are just plain fun. Poems read by me and John Cage. For all you non-believers praying for my downfall.

APOD0023 Ben Kudler, Bhob Rainey. Computer Music for Dorks. Episode Sixteen

Computer Music For Dorks wrangles with improv, computer, harsher, noise polyglot Bhob Rainey. The crew gets into some slip sliding adventures on what it was like to go to music school in the late 90s, tour the country DIY style in the 2000s and, how being wildly creative inventive and adroit with whatever tool had been placed in front of him has challenged and served Bhob in his multiple decades of genre inventing music. We talk Nmperign, some BSC, Christian Wolff, making computer games on early home computers, being in a duo with two soprano instruments, writing code that now ships with SuperCollider and so much god damn more.

I owe the cursory commentary of “Intelligence & Spirit” specifically that Negarestani “takes no prisoners” in I&S… to Alexander Boland. My own engagement with Negarestani’s work has been mostly “The Labor of the Inhuman” and “Where is the Concept?” The Merlin Carpenter text mentioned is “The Outside Can’t Go Outside” www.merlincarpenter.com/outside.pdf The David Joselit “Painting Beside Itself” essay is here: www.reenaspaulings.com/images3/0911djoselit.pdf The older artists I mentioned were Michael Krebber, Merlin Carpenter, Jutta Koether and Cosima von Bonin. The younger artists that I mentioned were Ben Schumacher, Julien Nguyen, Robert Bittenbender and Zoe Barcza. Kippenberger had a stint in Stuttgart, not Dusseldorf. Miguel’s paper can be found here: link.springer.com/article/10.1007/…1569-020-00366-4 The Mattin texts discussed are here: www.mattin.org/essays/14-Mattin-…tual_Art_fin.html www.mattin.org/recordings/IDIOMS_AND_IDIOTS.html The Ray Brassier text here: www.mattin.org/essays/unfree_imp…sive_freedom.html The “Saint” series with Sean McCann can be found here: www.recitalprogram.com/valentinus/ The text Mattin mentioned can be found here: www.textezurkunst.de/116/ein-kurzes…alen-sadismus/ Coincidentally, I interned at Real Fine Arts for the summer in 2011 which was the gallery behind the Jerry Magoo blog. I would like to thank Mattin & Miguel Prado for coming on the podcast.

APOD0019 E.S. Edition Erich Schmid. Episode One

Mix including compositions by Herbert Eimart, Florian Hecker, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Luc Ferrari, Farmers Manual and Jean-Claude Risset “The Musical Model. Pierre Boulez was the first to develop a set of simple oppositions and complex differences, as well as reciprocal nonsymmetrical correlations, between smooth and striated space. He created these concepts and words in the field of music, defining them on several levels precisely in order to account for the abstract distinction at the same time as the concrete mixes. In the simplest terms, Boulez says that in a smooth space-time one occupies without counting, whereas in a striated space-time one counts in order to occupy. He makes palpable or perceptible the difference between nonmetric and metric multiplicities, directional and dimensional spaces. He renders them sonorous or musical. Undoubtedly, his personal work is composed of these relations, created or recreated musically. At a second level, it can be said that space is susceptible to two kinds of breaks: one is defined by a standard, whereas the other is irregular and undetermined, and can be made wherever one wishes to place it. At yet another level, it can be said that frequencies can be distributed either in the intervals between breaks, or statistically without breaks. In the first case, the principle behind the distribution of breaks and intervals is called a “module”; it may be constant and fixed (a straight striated space), or regularly or irregularly variable (curved striated spaces, termed focalized if the variation of the module is regular, nonfocalized if it is irregular). When there is no module, the distribution of frequencies is without break: it is “statistical,” however small the segment of space may be; it still has two aspects, however, depending on whether the distribution is equal (nondirected smooth space), or more or less rare or dense (directed smooth space). Can we say that in the kind of smooth space that is without break or module there is no interval? Or, on the contrary, has everything become interval, intermezzo? The smooth is a nomos, whereas the striated always has a logos, the octave, for example. Boulez is concerned with the communication between the two kinds of space, their alternations and superpositions: how “a strongly directed smooth space tends to meld with a striated space,” how “a striated space in which the statistical distribution of the pitches used is in fact equal tends to meld with a smooth space”;5 how the octave can be replaced by “non-octave-forming scales” that reproduce themselves through a principle of spiraling; how “texture” can be crafted in such a way as to lose fixed and homogeneous values, becoming a support for slips in tempo, displacements of intervals, and son art transformations comparable to the transformations of op art. Returning to the simple opposition, the striated is that which intertwines fixed and variable elements, produces an order and succession of distinct forms, and organizes horizontal melodic lines and vertical harmonic planes. The smooth is the continuous variation, continuous development of form; it is the fusion of harmony and melody in favor of the production of properly rhythmic values, the pure act of the drawing of a diagonal across the vertical and the horizontal.” -Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari

APOD0018 Ben Kudler. Computer Music for Dorks. Episode Fourteen

Global shut in. Whatever continent you read this on, run through a translation application, or not, you are shut in. How many people get global events in their lifetime? Truly global. Hard to know, hard to say anything. The idea of reissue culture wrecking the somehow idealized perfect state of music seems like an arrogant joke at this juncture. I originally wrote out a year end list and made this mix as a companion. Things got delayed, for pandemic and non pandemic reasons. I figured it would be fun to look at the much more innocent time of four months. Here’s the year end list for 2019 with a slightly altered intro. All the lives shows seem much more precious now. Excited to see live music again, that shit is hard.

Computer Music For Dorks: The Charle Dodge Episode Charles Dodge was making computer music pretty much since the jump. Working with computers at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center and then later at his own studio out in Brooklyn, Dodge saw the possibilities of the computer for the realization of Cagean and new music concepts to great affect. Dodge was also ahead of the game in putting computer music, and experimental music in general, on record bringing sounds that were reserved for academic and scientific institutions to any record store peruser. Dodge’s record Earth’s Magnetic Field still sounds fresh and amazing to these ears. The concept that lived unnamed until very recently, sonification, was a child of Dodge’s and we look at some of the people who used that idea to ends not possible when Dodge first stepped in the game. For all you non-believers praying for my downfall.

Larry Austin was a composer of computer musics, electronic work, and, really, a bit of everything. Larry left this world 12/30/2018, but his memory lives on in both salient and important ways. Austin edited and helped to found Source: Music Of The Avant-Garde where basically every cool western musical composition idea, a lot of cool ideas about improvisation –don’t tell daddy, they even said they were influenced by… uh,oh, JAZZ!– and a whole smattering of moments on electronic circuits, design, politics, spirituality, and relationships were laid out in the back part of the 60s. Later Mr.Austin started the CDCM label to release lots of cool computer music from the inception of the form to present day. I learned a lot of what I know and what I use to make this podcast from the series, so check it out and steal my job! Austin’s Accidents remains a favorite of mine, and, to me, is every bit as interesting and generally, dare I say, good, as Cage’s and anyone else’s similar explorations from the time.

APOD0014 Jack Callahan & Alec Sturgis. Agave Expressionist Mix For Neo-Pastiche Festival

Podcast to support — Neo-Pastiche: Changes in American Music April 25th - April 28th, 2019 | Asheville, NC SEM Ensemble, Jeff Witscher, Sarah Louise, DeForrest Brown Jr., Eugene Chadbourne, Nick James Scavo, Petr Kotik, Shane Parish, Voice Training, Theodore Cale Schafer, Motown Willie, Phenoma, Anka, and more! In Partnership with the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center neo-pastiche.us/ Neo-Pastiche: Changes in American Music is a critical musical gathering featuring presentations by living American composers and performers whose work comes from outside standard academic or popular music contexts. Bringing in a diverse group of musicians from around the country, focusing particularly on New York City and local Asheville artists, the festival will take place over the course of four days in April 2019 (April 25th -28th) at the Black Mountain College Museum and Arts Center. Neo-Pastiche: Changes in American Music will create a space for considering the work of living American musicians on the basis of shared sensibilities and methodologies across discursive and social boundaries of style, institutional affiliation, race, sex and age. Beyond positing what these shared sensibilities and methods might be, our mission is to provide an opportunity for inspiring musical experience outside of standard institutionalized discourse; our hope is that the festival encourages a consideration of American non-institutional musics propelled by those performers and audience-members participating in this event in a spirit of fun and criticality. The program will feature musicians working under the headings of experimental music, both improvised and composed, electronic and computer musics, contemporary dance music, Appalachian string music, honky-tonk, speech and text based musics, video art, and more. The festival will take place in partnership with Western North Carolina non-profit organizations the Black Mountain College Museum and Arts Center and the Media Arts Project and UNC Asheville to provide public educational outreach surrounding our programming. In addition to musical offerings, panel discussions will be held by participants, food will be available and parties will follow our formal programming. In the spirit of Western North Carolina’s longstanding history as a point of inspiration and creative and collective self-determination, Neo-Pastiche: Changes in American Music hopes to invite a refreshed sense of what contemporary American music can be - where music can be engaged not only in terms of gallery art or popular culture, but also as a discursive field in its own right.
