250 Multicolored Birds Contained Within a Small Space, A Catalog of Levitating Saints, and Navarropissen
by Feyertag, Paul Rudolph, M.A., UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO, 2011, 58 pages; 1494537

Abstract:

The pieces contained within explore and revolve around themes of the collision of bodies, both sonic and (potentially) otherwise, intelligibility and coherence, sonic experience as construed through emergent behaviors, the idea of the polywork, and historical referentiality. More broadly, these pieces are largely concerned with exploring the musical possibilities of extreme saturation, as well as the positing of different methods by which this saturation can be constructed and presented to form, hopefully, strangely coherent and beautiful sonic experiences.
