daily bread

remote recording project 

30' (variable) , 2020

​

A remote recording project in collaboration with Maria Bulla and Brian Griffith.

 

Separately isolated due to the pandemic, we decided that we would record every day for a month. Beginning in April we recorded for one minute every evening at 20:20, simply keeping in mind the fact that we were mutually engaged in this daily activity. No coordination was made beyond this simple prompt: no preconceived idea of what we would record, how it might relate to each other's recordings, nor how these would develop over the course of the month.

​

At the end of the project, we made several versions: one which renders every day's recordings, layered together, on after the next; another which was generated with a max patch. The latter is heard below.
