Time, Rupture and Memory

Time, Rupture and Memory is a radiophonic piece I made in 2007.  I asked a series of sound designers and composers what they thought about Musique Concrète.  Musique Concrète is music made from recorded sounds, and it arose once sound could be recorded on things like turntables and magnetic tape.  The techniques of Musique Concrète underlie most contemporary audio production, and I was interested in how similar they seemed to the techniques of film sound design. Time, Rupture and Memory is a composition made from recorded interviews and music.
