DESCRIPTION:
BREATHING is a movement from Carbon Song Cycle (a inter-media chamber work by composer/performer Pamela Z and visual artist Christina McPhee). The work was originally written for voice & electronics, bassoon, viola, cello, percussion, and tape. This is a solo version performed by the composer (with just voice, processing, and tape). This is a recording of one of Pamela's solo works on a 3/13/2014 duo concert with Joan La Barbara as part of the 2014 ROOM Series at Royce Gallery in San Francisco.
Pamela Z is using a gesture controller (designed and built by Donald Swearingen) to manipulate the processing on her live voice.
