Metopia Data Dust is a composition part of the Metopia Series. This track was made from samples from the Buchla at the Elektronmusikstudion, EMS in Stockholm. It is using Music information retrieval, a non-linear spectrum-of-the-spectrum technique, to slice audio to remove the human from the composition process and instead trust algorithmic serendipity.
The World premiere was at the International Computer Music Conference, ICMC, at the
Daegu Concert House, the Great Hall, Daegu, South Korea in 2018.
It was also part of the Osaka Electroacoustic Festival in 2018, Osaka University of Arts, Japan
Many thanks to Elektronmusikstudion, EMS, in Stockholm, Sweden, and Ax:son Johnson Foundation, Sweden.
