Field recording of an unknown vibration
01
After shaking for several minutes, my computer turned off (it was
running only on power supply) the vibrations just unplugged
it.
02 well, it's a stereo piezo transducers
sandwich !
03 ln the basement of my office burldind, some pipes are vibrating
because ot the heavy traffic surrounding the building. There is also a
heater running in the background.
04 Several
contact mics were placed on various spots of the mechanism of a
tumtable to catch all sorts of vibrations. the high-pitched sounds are
the noise made by the unplugged ground cable.
05 This an extract of a max/msp live performance at Espace Julien,
Marseille. 2004 (Iive stage recording). The subwoofer just
died.
06 Saliva sounds recorded in front of my
fridge. (the sounds from the fridge are recorded separately)
07 Live at Totally Intense Fractal Mindgaze Hut, Oakland. 2008. There
were no subwoofers, so I tried to emulate some floor
vibrations (it was a wooden floor) by
putting the
bass loudspeaker directly on the floor.
08 Recording done using broken
headphones at max volume as loudspeakers.
09 This live set (Paradox, Tilburg. 2006) was done uslng acoustic
sounds of an extemal hard drive. The sound done by this harddrive was
sa annoying at home thai it was kind of fun to use it for an artistic
purpose.
10 I can't remember where and when I
recorded this, I just know it was on one of my "field recordings"
minidiscs.
Assembled and mastered by Francisco
Meirino at Shiver Mobile in 2008."
