texturetextexturetextexturetextexturetext: April 2015
http://texturetext.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. Recently I had the intriguing, and in some ways unnerving, experience of giving a half-hour solo improvised performance live to the internet from my living room. It was part of a 24-hour round-the-world online music performance relay event called ToBeContinued. There were a number of aspects of the performance situation which were unfamiliar, adding up to a strong feeling of being more exposed than usual - out on a limb. That's what I want to write about in this blog. Four other c...

texturetextexturetextexturetextexturetext: Boundaries
http://texturetext.blogspot.com/2013/11/boundaries.html
Sunday, November 17, 2013. I find myself seeking beauty at the blurred boundaries where words lose their meanings or gain new ones, where performances may or may not have begun, and where voice, instrument, and the sounds of the environment merge. And by some laptop and lo-fi artists explorating the soundworlds of air-conditioning units and other ambient machine presences. Looking back I realise that a couple of key early adult performance experiences were characterised by this sense of gradual transitio...

texturetextexturetextexturetextexturetext: what is radiophonic?
http://texturetext.blogspot.com/2010/11/what-is-radiophonic.html
Monday, November 22, 2010. I'm going to take a break from my more navel-gazing obsession with reflecting on my own sound/musical work. Instead I want to write down some thoughts on radiophonic art that were first sparked three years ago by hearing six new, short 'radiophonic' works in three distinctly different listening contexts. The listening contexts in which I heard the six works were (in this order):. 1 alone on headphones connected to a computer;. The ways in which I experienced these works and the...

texturetextexturetextexturetextexturetext: January 2010
http://texturetext.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 1, 2010. Sounds of Izmir - car horns, music playing from numerous street and shopfront systems, muezzin calls from mosques near and far punctuating the day and leaving langorous vapour trails of blurred background polyphonies. It's all music, isn't it? And now from inside the hotel room the muffled sounds of voices and indistinct bass lines filtering down from the restaurant above. Is the plethora of overlapping sound systems or the solos and choruses of car horns the more musical?

http://texturetext.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 27, 2010. Text, sound and sentiment. My second 'essay' (attempt) in responding sonically to Jen Craig's Absurd Enticements. Blog began with a simple association of time and place. Jen was absorbed with her own responses to the site. She photographed the cliffs and water. Afterwards she wrote a micro-story, Furred Water. Focusing on the visual atmospheric resonances of the work of Arthur Boyd in the water, cliffs and bushland he painted so often in the last decades of his life. Jen's tex...

Wednesday, September 25, 2013. Just a brief note to remember that experiment in online creative communities that was Pool. It was the existence of Pool, along with the site's limitations as a space for juxtaposing sound, text and image (something I wanted to do but not what the site was designed for) that prompted me to start this blog. Has been too swift for an under-resourced project buried inside a large public corporation to keep up with. There's a bit of left-over Pool in an archive site.
