Program Notes: Ritual (2001) 7:11
In terms of material and process I decided the concept of less is more would be the focus of this composition. A tam-tam, basin of water and the human voice provided the sound palette. As a painter mixes colours, my goal was to combine the materials in various ways, such as submerging the tam-tam in the water, to provide variation in the timbre.
Would You Like Fries With That? (2002) 20'
It was a dark and cold evening and the snow was falling hard. Dressed incognito as a naive SFU communications student, I set out into the night. My mission? Codename: McCulture - to tackle the fast food industry and reveal its true face. Armed only with a portable DAT recorder it was to be like David vs Goliath. With the industry cloaked in a blanket of secrecy, a sinister villain hiding behind toys-of-the-month, this was to be no easy task. Had anyone ever attempted an aural documentation of this corporate cash cow, I did not know. This is my story, and one tale I barely lived to tell.
