Alcuni concetti sono ricorrenti perché affascinano numerosi artisti. David Lee Myers ne riapre uno spesso frequentato di recente, grazie alle continue conferme dalla fisica quantistica: il tempo non esiste. Noi siamo organismi che crescono e cambiano, in un prima e in un dopo. Ma quello che misuriamo è un continuum. Giorno e notte li consideriamo …

Sound is everywhere. It exists on so many scales at times it is difficult to grasp. Its energies intertwine with the wider systems of a city, bleeding beyond borders and passing through our perceived boundaries. Many of these intersecting energies are imperceptible to humans. Even spaces we consider quiet are, in fact, extremely busy, full …

Strange Attractors ist ein Beispiel für das, was man Zeitverschiebungsmusik nennen könnte. Eine wechselnde Mischung aus Rückkopplungen, anderen Geräuschquellen und gefundenen Klängen wird in eine Reihe von digitalen Stereo-Verzögerungseinheiten eingespeist, deren Parameter (Verzögerungszeit, Reverse, Freeze usw.) in Echtzeit über LFOs, Sample- und Hold-Regler usw. sowie durch manuelle Live-Anpassungen manipuliert werden, um ein sich ständig weiterentwickelndes …

Strange Attractors to przykład tego, co można nazwać muzyką Time Displacement. Zmienna mieszanka sprzężeń zwrotnych, innych źródeł hałasu i znalezionych dźwięków jest podawana do serii stereofonicznych cyfrowych delayów, których parametrami manipuluje się w czasie rzeczywistym za pomocą LFO, kontrolerów sampli, a także ręcznych zmian na żywo, aby stworzyć stale ewoluujący pastisz dźwięków. Siedzenie w ciszy (zwłaszcza późno w nocy) i słuchanie tych kompozycji może być dziwnie ekscytujące. …
