RUPT

The low groan of compressed rock (marble, gneiss, gabbro, granite) stretched to audible roar, strata on a continuum of deep time – a spectrum as close to eternity as appreciable. Boundaries collapse beneath the colossal trudge of geological time. Apparent fixity is merely movement at a slower rate. Rupture, rend, collide, collapse. Four compositions for piano, synthesis and processing. Listen loud. - - - - - - - - - - These compositions utilise DAXA, a translator/catalyst for the Yamaha DX7, designed and implemented by Dennis McNulty in collaboration with David Donohoe. - - - - - - - - - - Special thanks to Dennis McNulty.
