Toneburst: Maps and Fragments 1995 - 1996
David Tudor and Sophia Ogielska
The ideograms appear in various forms in the multi-layered, translucent panels (scores, or maps), which express the interactive assembly of sound, coming from a flow of operations on active circuit elements. There is no one way of performing the composition; in fact there is an infinity of performances encoded in the circuit, which are visualized in the panels. The performance begins with introduction of individual sounds, and so there will be clusters of ideograms in space which will introduce the visual components of the larger maps. The colors and shapes indicate different groups of operations on active circuit elements (frequency and phase, input/output switching, amplitude, source input). With this visual language we have been planning to work next on another David's composition, which was commissioned for Merce Cunningham's dance 'Enter'."
