I've uploaded some recordings from the Converging Objects workshop at Call & Response to Soundcloud. You can listen here.

Another succesful Converging Objects workshop by Shackle, now at Call & Response in London.

The workshop was part of a 5-day visit to the city PJ Harvey was very glad to return to ;) We started with a lecture/concert at Brunel University, invited by Bob Gilmore and Sarah Nicolls. Despite the small audience it was a nice event, with very enthousiastic students and staff. The day after Shackle played at Cafe Oto. Again it started out with a small audience, but more came in during the first set. I started out with a solo, playing Stranger for 10 minutes, then Anne played a piece by Michael Young. After the break it was Shackle'ing all the way. Fun!

The workshop at Call & Response ran for two days. Lots of acoustic musicians, as opposed to the computer people at Edinburgh in December. Also more girls than boys! Good atmosphere, and I think everyone got something out of it. There are more pictures here. Audio will follow soon.

This is Dick Raaijmakers duplicating sinetone pitch sweeps, all 'of course on indication of the composer', the man with the moustache, Tom Dissevelt. I like the thoughtful frown at 0:57, you can almost hear the producer say 'at that moment you look up, as if you have this great idea'.
