Here’s part 1 of 2 of our set from Radio Integrated… the first portion of the recording is a nice DJ set from Alixr, so check it out as well. Our portion begins with an interview with Sean Ocean, so check the waveform for the low part about 2/3 in..

Welp, we had a blast at our live set in Alameda at Radio Integrated, as usual. They’re awesome. We really appreciate them inviting us out to play and so generously giving us some time for an interview, too. Here’s part 2 of 2. Part 1 should be showing up soon.

Joel is an old friend of mine from back when I lived in southern California and was going out with friends to listen to excellent DJs and stay up all night. Joel was one of those DJs. He was a trusted guide during an age of exploration of both music and mind. That was in the early 90’s and we’d lost touch until fairly recently. The internet makes it easy to reconnect, so I was really excited to see that he’s produced an awesome project for expressive musical performance that he’s calling AirDeck. Check out his website for all of the details: http://mojosdojo.com/
Behold:
What I love about this project is that he’s taken the concept beyond an initial first step of a direct manipulation input for tone control to being an abstract control for arbitrary expression. As you can see in the video, he starts off doing a lovely Star Trek theme excerpt, and then moves on to using the controls to manipulate the forward and reverse velocity of an audio sample for a DJ scratch type of control. It’s not hard to imagine a system like this being used by dancers, for instance, to collaborate with sound artists to create new types of hybrid performance art.
It’s the kind of thing science fiction movies told us the future would be like, but realized now.
exhibits 1 and 2: William Gibson’s Johnny Mnemonic (1995)

and Philip K. Dick’s Minority Report (2002)

The only difference being that the versions in the movies is fake, an Joel’s version is very real.
Bravo, man!
Haptic Synapses will be performing live on Radio Integrated tonight! Check it out at 9pm PST.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are very happy to announce the long awaited return of Qorser who brings us a sizzling new release to start off the new year and a new decade. Although the theme of ‘Sol Goes Nova’ is about the imminent destruction of our beloved sun sometime in the very distant future, the sounds of these five tracks will keep your spirits up and your body moving. If there were a dancefloor in outer space, these beats would be what should be pumping out of the speakers. We invite you all to come and download yourself a healthy dose of other-worldly funk.
