Type A

stereo electroacoustic track
5 min. 35 sec.

Type A is a stereo electroacoustic sound-object piece, which was composed using only two sound sources: a long, hollow plastic tube and an old-fashioned typewriter. It was created using both analog and digital studio equipment. The sounds were processed in many different ways, including (analog) tape loops, pitch shifting, filtering, echo, reverb, and granulation.

Type A has been performed at various locations, including the Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver, Canada, 2003, the Sonic Boom Festival, at the Western Front, Vancouver, Canada, on March 10, 2005, and selected as part of the International Women’s Electroacoustic Listening Room Project, 8th Annual New Music Festival at California State University, Fullerton, California, USA, March 21, 2009.
