2006

  • Premiere: SCI Student Chapter concert, Atlanta, GA, 12.8.2006 – Kopleff Recital Hall

Shadowed Moon,  for 2-channel electronic playback – draws both structural and programmatic inspiration from Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon. In a loose sense Shadowed Moon is a condensed commentary on Dark Side…, there is a section inspired by each track of the album, and as an arbitrary structural scheme every section of Shadowed Moon is proportional to it associate track on Pink Floyd’s album. Shadowed Moon is meant to convey a ominous mood toward the non-musical themes of money, greed, time, etc.

This work was used as a laboratory for exploration of time scale expansion, spectral enveloping, and frequency modulation. Shadowed Moon was produced with the Csound software synthesis system with the aid of CMask.
