About This Project

“A Landscape of Events” is a piece heavily influenced by Paul Virilio’s homonymous book. Is a sonic reflection on how the perception of time is distorted by the pacing of life portrayed in contemporary media, always in constant acceleration. The piece, like the book, presents an amalgam of seemingly disjointed content, or “sets of contradictions in an accelerated and miniaturized world” (Moran, 2004)

This piece was composed at the Virginia Center for Computer Music using ambisonics microphones and Ville Pulkki’s Vector Based Amplitude Panning for the multichannel spatialization.
