about

Improvising to an erratic beat: the motion of a 6 magnet chaos pendulum blown by irregularly cycling electric fan, used to fire chords from a very old electric piano . Additionally the recording was made 16 years ago, and is somewhat the worse for wear. Courtesy of Freesound user klankbeeld, another stochastic input, the concert of two out of synch piledrivers. Improvising in a simple style on a guitaret over these.
