Music from the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA,
said "karma") at Stanford University.  CCRMA is a multi-disciplinary facility
where composers and researchers work together using computer-based technology
both as an artistic medium and as a research tool.  This event features mostly
experimental music by composers, researchers, musicians and technologists from
CCRMA working with their hand rolled systems.  All pieces will be performed
live, many in native 8 channel speaker diffusion format.

Performers (not necessarily in this order):

Ge Wang : "TBD" : Live coding with the Chuck programming language. (8 channel
piece)

Fernando Lopez-Lezcano : "El Dinosaurio Speaks" : Looped and layered live
analog electronics. (8 channel piece)

Juan-Pablo Caceres : "Give a man an orchestra and he doesn't become us" :
Laptop : A real-time improvisational distillation of a previous project,
'orquesta', where I "pieced together zillion little orchestral instrument
samples." This time I am using the same idea, but real-time and sound
processing (forbidden ingredients of the previous project) are
permitted and most welcome.

Michael Gurevich : Dolphin sythesis : Laptop

Maladies Sexuellement Transmissibles : "Collage" : Ensemble

Bruno Ruviaro : "Malleable" : “Able to be hammered or pressed permanently out
of shape without breaking or cracking”. Malleare means “to hammer”, and that
may remind of the word “mallet”; the composer, this charlatan percussionist,
works in a forge, hammering old sounds at high temperatures, beating them
gently into new shapes, and sweating. Music, in the end, is all forgery. (8
channel piece)

Luke Dahl : Live beat-based electronic music

DJ interludes:
steinunn (Iceland)
jeffcoop (Texas)
skizzy (SF)
