History of the Auto-motive - for ohrenhoch
by Liz Allbee
Liz Allbee on "History of the Auto-motive":
Created for ohrenhoch out of tracks and material from my upcoming album, “Theseus vs.”, History of the Auto-motive is a piece about collisions, unspoken commands and the double meaning of certain codes. It contains a morse code section which repeats a phrase with two different meanings depending on where you enter the loop. The instrumentation is voice, prepared trumpet, short-wave radio, guzheng and various electronics.
