about

This is a live mix tape piece that was composed for a dance by Evangel King called CROSSES AND VEILS. It uses two main sound sources: the sound of a steel foundry I recorded in Oakland, California and just-tuned harmonies produced on digital oscillators. The focus of the piece moves from the foundry sound to the just-tuned chords; sections within that motion are formed by radical shifts in mixing and filtering of the materials. The two sound sources represent the "crosses" and "veils" in the title of the dance, while my title refers to an imaginary horizon line that I envisioned as a setting upon which the motions of the dance could be traced.
