Entanglement
McCausland, Douglas Turnbull[Stanford, California] : [Stanford University], 2023ENTANGLEMENT (2023) is an intermedia work for live-electronics performer, higher order ambisonics audio, video projection, and programmed lights. The culmination of over a decade of research and creative practice in electronic music, this work is a paratactic collection of ten visceral and dynamic personal reflections. Aesthetically, ENTANGLEMENT demands us to experience the contrast of extremes, for example: tension and release, density and stasis, and -- sometimes -- discomfort and catharsis. These ten sections are structurally linked to one another by a network of interconnections in material, form, and theme; ENTANGLEMENT is: i. Terminus ii. Reclamation iii. why do you distort your face? iv. static / wake v. in situ vi. Wormwood vii. [REDACTED] viii. degrade.loop(16) ix. ENTANGLEMENT x. six lines Performance of this work is facilitated by a purpose-built electronic performance interface (MH / CH2) which, with the assistance of bespoke computer software, leverages the hands and movement of the performer to afford a high degree of control over an array of digital synthesis engines and spatial controls

Douglas McCausland
McCausland, DouglasStanford (Calif.), February 9, 2019All things strange and beautiful. Twenty-four hours straight of live experimentation and improvisation, featuring experimental/noise/drone bands and artists from the Bay Area and beyond. A KZSU tradition since the '90s.As the founder of Day of Noise, KZSU DJ Voice of Doom puts it:"Noise is the liberation of sound from the narrow rules of conventional music, calling a project noise frees you up to include any kind of sound in the artwork. The Day of Noise event has always been about the freedom of non-commercial radio to deviate from the standardized conceptions of what the audience wants or needs. It exploits the immediacy of the radio format with live performance (which really includes live DJing), there are always actual human beings in the loop making off-the-cuff decisions about what sounds should come next. The listener has the feeling that at any moment, anything might happen, because anything can. The point is to embrace all kinds of creative sounds, not to rule out some types of music for not being noisy enough."
