    She's not only an amazing and accomplished musician, but she is also a Master "Buchlist" as well as a Master sound designer. She doesn't stop at the musical or compositional aspect of her performance. She takes things all the way to the spatial acoustic envelope of the performance space / venue and carefully considers and designs the parameters for the audio playback system and audience listening experience. It's a huge confluence of skills and mastery from top to bottom. Awe inspiring !

    One of my all time favorites! So many textures. I have been studying your performances for nearly a year now and it never ceases to amaze me how you are able to pass through various movements and it all flows seamlessly. I remain, however, confused as to what you have tied "L" to on the 223e input port. At first I thought the master clock but now I think an arpeggiator. I realize this was four years ago, so I will try some different ideas. Anyway, thank you for the hours of entertainment..

    Nice. On my birthday. There's nothing more daunting than composing a work of music with a machine whose basic sound materials are primarily bleeps, bloops and swooshes driven by sequencers. Mort Subotnick did it. Compliments to Suzanne for a courageous followup :)

      "composing a work of music with a machine whose basic sound materials are primarily bleeps, bloops and swooshes "
      That's really not true, the Buchla and other modular synths have many rich timbres to work with, and something that seems continually lost on people is that what makes something "beep" vs a longer more developed sound primarily has to do with the shape of the envelope. You might as well say that there's nothing more daunting than composing a work of music with a device whose basic sounds are strings resonating against a stick of wood. In any case, it doesn't take any skill to make sounds that are not like these..really, I don't know why it seems people have such trouble with it..just sequence anything other than a pure square or sine wave with a short envelope and it probably wont' sound like that. What does take skill is putting sounds in a spectrum of composition that musically makes sense and fits together.

      some modular performers do that, to show the audience what they do 'live' and also it's about the music and not staring at the performer, who is locked in the moment not waving and bopping like a dj...

      Yes and I would love to hear it that way some day! SC always performs with quad audio. She famously turned down an invitation to perform at Lincoln Center because they would not provide quad audio. I believe that the sense that quad is an essential element of live performance came from Don Buchla, Ciani’s mentor, and designer of the synthesizers that have been at the heart of this part of her career.

      Is the sequencer part of the Buchla or something se added? Do you know its model? It's quite a lot of time I am wondering if the best option to work with many sequences is better from an app on iPad or Mac (maybe one of the DAW software I use) or find a good eurorack sequencer, but for this last one I saw time signatures like 6/8 and other composite measures are a problem...

    • @osc3947
      @osc3947 5 лет назад +2

      Daniele Sozzani Desperati there are two buchla sequencers: model 248 and model 251e. The 248 is a clone of a 70-80s buchla module and it’s the main sequencer (the big module with a lot of sliders). This module is actually not simply a sequencer but a multi segment function generator. The 251e is a 100 step 4 track sequencer kinda similar to the orthogonal devices ER-101. Comunque se parli italiano posso rispondere in italiano 🙃

    I know she ist a legend and the Buchla is legendary but somehow that sounds very similar to the spontaneous noodling i (and 100000 others) do in my living room with "lesser" equipment.
    (And did about 30 years ago with some of the old instruments i had back then), not sure if this is really "big art".

      This has been her instrument since the 60’s
      She did get into “modern” equipment in the 80’s and 90’s when composing for film, television, computer games and arcade games and also doing sound design for major synth manufacturers like Yamaha, Roland and Korg. She had returned to her roots, namely the buchla, in only the past 10 or 15 years
