We Are Sitting In A Room

Inspired by Alvin Lucier's "I Am Sitting In A Room," this composition was created collaboratively by 12 students in my Production as Composition class at CalArts, currently "sheltering in place" at locations all around the globe.
It started with a room tone...Then each student contributed a harmonic of 60 Hz and a B flat.
I mixed everything together at my home studio, and then we sent that mix around and passed it from student to student, who each re-amplified and re-recorded it in the space that they were currently occupying and sent it to the next student (picking up environmental noise and resonant frequencies with each iteration).
Performed and Recorded By:
Scott Cohen
Danielle Dahl
Kion Heidari-Bateni
Tal Katz
Zaq Kenefick
Dylan Marx
Lani Guerrero
Jasmine Stade
Jacob Sucher
Adam Zuckerman

14 days in the lockdown April, I was locked up in a central quarantine accommodation. 14 days with the extraction of fresh air and the earth, the only approach for me to connect with the loving world is the peephole in my room door and a locked up window. As I stay, I start to […]

A collection of melodies. Embedded like a small light in the corner. This piece engages themes and processes of transparency/translucence, copying/covering, and distance/absence: the traces of a thing not there. Melody fragments expand and contract. Here, melody crystallizes into harmony and harmony unfolds as melody. Like a constellation of stars; or in the direction of […]
