The basic sounds of the pieces were all created with a Buchla and some with a Serge analog modular synthesizer during my residency at EMS Stockholm, 2013. After this part of the sound creation (and with some files further digital processing), I played the results through different external loudspeakers, which I prepared with resonant objects such as tin cans, tubes, paper, metal plates, wooden boxes or small objects. This mixture of acoustic and electro-acoustic sounds was then re-recorded and assembled into the final compositions.

Many thanks to EMS for my residency and to the Goethe Institute for giving me a grant to work there.
