Sunday Synth Jam: More of an electroacoustic avant garde jam – this video captures The Crank Ensemble performing String Theory:

For the Garden of Memory annual Solstice performance at Chapel of the Chimes in Oakland, June 21, 2009.

Excerpt features Bronwyn Ximm as “stimulator”, with Hugh Behm-Steinberg, Mark Brest van Kempen, Vicki Olds and Bodil Fox as “tuners”, with Mary Behm-Steinberg as “knitter”.

Sound is generated by placing piezo contact microphones on nylon string, and embedding them in knitting needles. Knitting concept by Bodil.

      something to think about

      It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony. — Benjamin Britten
