Ken Paoli: "Three VignettesOne Turbulent Night The Temple Garden Drum Dance". This electronic work was algorithmically generated using the hypermetric theories of Edward T. Cone as a method to organize rhythm motivically. Time spans measured with a real-world clock set the duration for musical phrase length, which holds rhythmic values in arrays. The same rhythmic values are supplied to each array, but the ordering of the rhythm elements are varied. The work makes use of samples that have been submitted to an AI genetic process using Synthplant 2. Samples generate genetic strands which are variants of the original sample. Automation of the synth parameters, in turn, effect the attributes of the sampled “patch.” The output of the algorithmically generated material is input to a DAW and recorded for compositional processing and editing.

這部電子作品是透過愛德華·T·科恩(Edward T. Cone)的超度量理論進行演算法生成,該理論用於動機性地組織節奏。樂句長度的時間跨度以真實世界的時鐘測量,並設定音樂樂句的持續時間,將節奏數值存儲於陣列中。相同的節奏數值提供給每個陣列,但節奏元素的順序有所變化。
作品使用提交至 Synthplant 2 的 AI 遺傳過程所產生的樣本。樣本生成遺傳鏈,這些鏈是原始
樣本的變體。合成器參數的自動化則進一步影響這些取樣「音色片段」的屬性。經演算法生成的素材輸入至數位音頻工作站(DAW)並進行錄音,之後進行作曲處理與編輯。

Leigh Landy: "Qing + Cha 磬 + 镲 Old / New 舊 / 新 Leigh Landy" (2023, 6 minutes)
East Asian bowls and cymbals + 8-channel recording Programme note: This is the fourth work in Landy’s Old/New series that commenced with the commissioned festival composition for the 2013 Musicacoustica Festival, China/Music 中國/音樂 Old/New 舊/新. In that work samples taken from recordings of a wide variety of forms of Chinese traditional music were captured and recomposed. In this work, created ten years later at the request of the percussionist, Thierry Miroglio, Chinese and other East Asian bowls and cymbals have been sampled and recomposed in surround sound providing an atmospheric sonic immersive environment in which the live performance involving only those instruments completes the composition. The version performed on this occasion is a fixed-medium version based on observations made of Miroglio’s performance. It is interesting to note how acoustic sounds become electroacoustic through recomposition. The series and this composition’s goal is to demonstrate how music and instruments with rich traditions can represent profound histories while remaining dynamic and thus eternally modern. In the case of this work, the dynamic can also be found in the fact that a French percussionist has become virtuosic performing East Asian instruments. Technical notes: The eight channels are placed in the form of an octagon, ideally equidistant, with the left front loudspeaker as channel 1, the right front loudspeaker as 2 and the odd numbered speakers all on the left and even ones on the right with 7 (rear left) and 8 (rear right). The work is quite meditative, but this does not mean it has to be very quiet at all times. In fact, the dynamic range is quite large, but the piece should never sound very loud.
Leigh Landy:《Qing + Cha 磬 + 镲 Old / New 舊 / 新 Leigh Landy》
(2023年,時長6分鐘)
東亞鐘磬與鈸 + 八聲道錄音
這是Landy的*「舊/新」*系列的第四部作品,該系列始於2013年Musicacoustica中國音樂節委託的作品《中國/音樂 舊/新》。在那部作品中,Landy錄製並重新編曲了來自各種形式的中國傳統音樂樣本。而在這部十年後、應打擊樂演奏家Thierry Miroglio之請創作的作品中,中國及其他東亞地區的鐘磬和鈸被錄製取樣,並以環繞音重新編曲,創造出一個具有沉浸感的聲音氛圍環境,這個環境通過僅使用這些樂器的現場演奏完成整部作品。本次演出的是一個固定媒介的版本,基於對Miroglio演奏的觀察而製作。
值得注意的是,通過重新編曲,聲音如何從原本的聲學聲響轉化為電聲音樂。而這個系列以及本作品的目標,是展示具有豐富傳統的音樂與樂器如何在承載深厚歷史的同時,保持動態,並因此永遠具有現代性。在本作品的案例中,這種動態還體現在一位法國打擊樂演奏家如何在東亞樂器上展現出精湛的技藝。
技術說明:
八個聲道呈正八邊形擺放,理想狀態下相距相等,1號聲道為左前方揚聲器,2號聲道為右前方揚聲器,奇數聲道皆在左側,偶數聲道皆在右側,7號(左後)和8號(右後)。
這部作品具有冥想的特質,但這並不意味著它必須始終保持非常安靜。事實上,作品的動態範圍相當大,但整首作品不應該聽起來過於響亮。

Naotoshi Osaka: Uguisu Valley Trill and Water for Electronic Acoustics (2024) The Uguisu, a Japanese bush warbler, is known for its distinctive singing style, which includes three different ways of singing, one of which is the vigorous valley trill. Typically, this trill follows a duple rhythm, but I recently had the chance to hear a rare occurrence of a triple rhythm. This piece explores the various variations of the valley trill as its main theme. The recorded singing voices are extended musically, and virtual trills are introduced. The water stirring sound is also used more as a background sound. The combination of water, its processed sound effects, and bird singing adds another layer of interest to this piece.
小坂直敏:《鶯谷的顫音與電子音響之水》(2024)鶯,是一種日本的莺鸟,以其獨特的歌唱風格著稱,其中包括三種不同的鳴唱方式,其中之一便是強而有力的谷中顫音。通常,這種顫音以二拍節奏呈現,但我最近有幸聽到罕見的三拍節奏版本。這首作品以谷中顫音的各種變化為主要主題,將錄製的鳥鳴聲進行音樂性的延展,並引入虛擬顫音。此外,水流攪動的聲音更多地作為背景音使用。水聲、經過處理的音效與鳥鳴的結合,為這首作品增添了另一層次的趣味。

Yi-Cheng Lin: 3D Illusory Immersive Soundscape: "Lava's Roaring Dance"
林宜徵:3D 沈浸式魔幻聲景:《熔岩之舞》
"Lava's Roaring Dance" Molten lava flows beneath the earth, Winding like a fiery dragon, devouring land, Explosions of heat in the dark, Shining, roaring, Turning all in its path to ash and flame. Yet, as it advances, The glacier's cold confronts, Deep within ice and snow, Lava's heat bursts through the surface, But the frigid air gathers, Forming chimney-like ice pillars, Half fire, half ice— A battle where fire and ice entwine Frozen in place. Lava enters the icy tunnel, Each step carving marks on frozen walls, Steam and heat, Etching hollows on the ice, Like blooming frozen flowers, Breaths intertwined, Eroding solid ice into shifting forms, Shards of crystal shatter, In the clash, A silent symphony reverberates. At the tunnel’s end, A cavern dark and deep, Silent as death, Cold waters mirror the faint glow, Ripples whispering ancient secrets— Here, fire and ice meet their end, Yet a new beginning stirs. The lake flows into the abyss, Where the underwater world sleeps, There, a volcano stirs, In the deep, dark sea, Earthquakes disturb the stillness, Eruptions send molten rock, Scorching light in cold waters, Slowly solidifying, Rising to the surface— An island of life. This island, Born of ice and fire, Carries life and hope, Amid the boundless ocean.
炙熱的岩漿,在地底流淌,如⽕龍般蜿蜒,吞噬⼤地,迸發的熱浪,在⿊暗中閃耀,流動著,咆哮著,化為灰燼與⽕光。然⽽,隨著它的前⾏,冰川的寒冷迎⾯⽽來,在冰雪的深處,岩漿的熱氣衝破地表,嚴寒的天氣,在洞⼜堆積冰柱,⼀半是⽕,⼀半是冰,天地間的對峙,凝結於此。岩漿進入冰隧道,每⼀步,都在冰壁上刻下印記,⽔蒸氣與熱氣,在冰的表⾯,留下凹洞,如冰花般綻放,交錯的氣息,將冰侵蝕出千變萬化的形狀,⼀⽚⽚冰晶,碰撞中碎裂,隧道中,回響無聲的交響。隧道的盡頭,⼀個幽暗的洞穴展開,寂靜如死,冰冷的湖⽔,如鏡⾯般,倒映著隧道的幽光,漣漪粼粼,彷彿訴說著遠古的秘密,這裡是冰與⽕交融的終點,卻也是新的開始。湖⽔通往深處,隱藏著海底的世界,那裡,海底⽕山蠢動著,在⿊暗的深海中,地震的震動擾動了寧靜,⽕山的噴發,伴隨著熔岩與礦物,在海底散發出炙熱的光芒,熔岩在冰冷的海⽔中,慢慢凝固,⼀點⼀滴,浮上⽔⾯,形成了⽣命之島。這座島嶼,在冰與⽕的交融中誕⽣,如黎明之光,帶來了⽣命與希望,在無垠的海洋上靜靜漂浮。

Chien-Wen Cheng: "Echoes of Serenity " for audiovisual work that integrates electronic music with interactive visuals
鄭建文:《寧靜的回聲 》結合電子音樂與互動影像的影音作品
Echo of Serenity is an audiovisual work that integrates electronic music with interactive visuals, centered on the theme of meditation. Using the pure and ethereal tones of the handpan as its foundational material, the piece employs digital audio techniques such as granular synthesis, spectral delay, and reverb to transform and reconstruct the sound elements. This process vividly depicts the inner journey experienced during meditation—from the chaos of scattered thoughts to tranquility, gradually focusing attention until reaching a state of profound serenity and peace.
The visual component incorporates interactive features that respond to the pitch and volume of the electronic music. By dynamically adjusting parameters of fluid effects, it creates visual expressions synchronized with the sound, enriching the overall visual depth.
The structure of the composition, including its texture, soundscapes, and dynamic tension, mirrors the different stages of meditation, unfolding layer by layer to portray the progressive transformation of the inner self. From initial immersion to the emergence of thoughts, followed by a phase of mental turbulence, and finally arriving at pure serenity, the work seeks to capture the gradual emotional and spiritual transitions that occur during meditation.
《寧靜的回聲》(Echoes of Serenity)是一部結合電子音樂與互動影像的影音作品,以冥想為主題,運用手碟(Handpan)純淨而空靈的音色作為基礎素材,透過數位音訊技術包括粒子化合成、頻譜延遲與殘響等手法,進行的聲音素材的變形與重塑,藉以描繪了人們在冥想過程中所經歷的內心旅程——從思緒的混亂到平靜,由注意力的分散逐漸集中,最終達至深層的寧靜與平和。影像部分則結合音樂的互動特性,透過偵測電子音樂中的音高與音量,動態調控流體特效的參數變化,創造出與聲音同步的視覺藝術表現,也藉此豐富整體的視覺層次。全曲的織體、音響與張力的結構設計與冥想過程的不同階段相呼應,逐層展開,展現內心逐漸轉化的歷程。從初步沉浸到思緒浮現,再到思緒紛亂,最後邁向純然平靜,作品嘗試捕捉冥想中情緒與心靈的漸變過程。

Jeff (Chih-Fang) Huang: “Image IV” for Erhu Improvisation, Violin Improvisation, Dance Imporvisation, and Electroacoustic Music
黃志方:《映象IV》(給二胡即興、小提琴即興 [黃志方]、舞蹈即興與電聲音樂)
"Image IV" borrows the Taoist spiritual image from chaos, to make the listeners' hearing from simple to complex; from stillness to motion; to enter the world of unconsciousness, and eventually fuses the electroacoustic music with nature inside our mind. A cadenza is performed by Erhu and Dance improvisation before the last part of the piece. This piece predecessor "Image I" was performed at ZEPERNICK - XIX. Randspiele, Berlin, on July 3 2011, and Alte Feuerwache Köln New Music Festival on July 21, 2011.
《映象IV》借用了道家“混沌”中的靈性意象,將聽眾的聽覺從簡單引向複雜,從靜止走向運動,進入無意識的世界,最終將電子音樂與內心的自然融合。在作品的最後一部分之前,二胡即興演奏與舞蹈即興演出了一段華彩樂段。這首作品的前身《映象I》於2011年7月3日在柏林第十九屆蘭德斯皮勒音樂節(ZEPERNICK - XIX. Randspiele)及2011年7月21日在科隆新音樂節(Alte Feuerwache Köln New Music Festival)上演出。

Hsin-Lei Chen: "Komm, sel'ge Ruh" for Electronic Music
陳欣蕾:《Komm, sel'ge Ruh》給電聲音樂
This piece incorporates J. S. Bach's chorale "Komm, süßer Tod" (Come, Sweet Death) as its central theme, creating a solemn and profound musical atmosphere. Originally a meditative work imbued with a serene prayer for the end of life, the chorale is presented here through the sound of the organ, highlighting its majestic yet introspective qualities. In the structure of the music, the organ serves as the main voice, interwoven with the rising and falling of bell tones, evoking a sense of overlapping time and space. This composition is not only a tribute to Bach’s original work but also an attempt to reinterpret its longing for spiritual redemption through modern musical techniques. The piece begins with a gentle introduction by the organ, gradually layered with the resonance of bells. As the melody unfolds, the organ chords and the rhythmic tolling of the bells intertwine, creating a prayer-like musical tableau. The piece concludes with a moment of silence and lingering echoes, leaving the audience with an endless aftertaste and deep reflection.
本曲採用了巴赫(J. S. Bach)的合唱曲《Komm, süßer Tod》(來吧,甜蜜的死亡)為核心素材。這首合唱曲原本是一首沉思性的作品,帶有對生命終點的寧靜祈願,而在本曲中,透過管風琴的音色,展現了其既莊嚴又令人內省的一面。 在音樂的結構中,管風琴的聲音作為主體,結合此起彼落的鐘聲,形成一種時間與空間交錯的感受。 本曲不僅是對巴赫原曲的致敬,更試圖以現代音樂的手法重新詮釋那種對靈魂救贖的渴望。音樂由柔和的管風琴引導進入,逐漸加入鐘聲的層次,隨著旋律的推進,管風琴的和弦與鐘聲的節奏彼此交織,形成如同禱告般的音樂場景,最終以靜默與低回作為結尾,留給聽眾無盡的餘韻與省思。
