I am will be working with Protein Dance on their new piece ‘L.O.L.’ which will premiere in January, 2011. We are still at the early stages of negotiations so I can’t say much more at this stage except it is all quite exciting.

In other news, I’m taking delivery of a Capybara 320 and KymaX, made by Symbolic Sound Corporation. If this means anything to you you will know how excited I am! The Capybara 320 hardware is the power behind the KymaX software, a language for creating, processing and combining sound and in short it is the holy grail of sound manipulation.
I first came across KymaX many years ago when I wanted to morph two sounds together, so that the ‘crossfade’ from one sound to another was imperceptible. This is actually incredibly difficult to achieve with sound, as opposed to light. All I could do was listen to the convincing examples on the SSC website and dream- it was, and still is, a major financial investment.

Kyma does many many more things besides morphing. It is deep. Very deep.

So next week I will hopefully take delivery of this fabulous beast.
