traces # 1 – a found and concrete sound work by roger mills

traces #1 is an interactive and indeterminate composition featuring improvised processed trumpet and found and concrete sound sourced from field recordings taken in China, Turkey, Germany, and UK in 2011. The work explores the juxtaposition of acousmatic and acoustic sound, as a temple gong beats out a rhythm, and locusts are diffused via an Internet stream for mobile phones/laptops.

listeners are invited to log onto the stream and amplify it during the performance as instructed.
