Contains three electronic works:
1. Saturations III-A
2. Saturations III-B
3. Saturations III-C

The Saturations series of pieces all focus on a very narrow "subject" and, similar to photography, saturates it with as much of the subject as possible. In Saturations III-A for example, I took a very short sample of a choir (singing an earlier piece of mine). The original sample was only a few seconds long, but through a number of software processes this complete work was made entirely from that original sample.

Listen to an excerpt:

These pieces have been prorgrammed widely, including being featuring at the Society of Electro-Acoustic Music annual conference, International Computer Music Conferences, and at the Spark Festival of Electronic Music and Arts.

Please Note:
