Heather Lockie<\/a> (viola, voice, & electronics) and Clay Chaplin <\/a>(laptop) make electroacoustic experiments. Their sounds can include: tonally ambivalent layers in deep space \u2013 annoying, relentless patterns of noises and bleeps \u2013 somewhat formal electroacoustic compositional stylings influenced by analysis algorithms \u2013 sampled-based obliterations of field recordings or viola loops \u2013 the occasional blanket of noise with a hint of a song \u2013 and many other rogue rarefactions.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n

Clay Chaplin<\/h2>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n
\n

Clay Chaplin is an electronic musician, improviser, and audio engineer from Los Angeles who explores the realms of sampling, field recording, analog electronics, and computer synthesis for creative sonic expression. His solo performances often utilize custom electronics in combination with computer processing and stochastic code structures to create chaotic instruments for improvisation. Clay has been composer in residence at STEIM and the Center for Contemporary Music at Mills College among others. Clay is currently the Director of the Computer Music and Experimental Media studios at CalArts, teaches in the Composition-Experimental Sound Practices program, and is the Larry Levin Chair in Contemporary Music.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n

Heather Lockie<\/h2>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>\n\n
\n

Heather Lockie is an L.A.-based composer, performer, and painter who creates graphic score, soundscape, song, installation, improvisation, and through-composed works. Often using stringed instruments, voice, and found objects, Lockie\u2019s work stretches from ensemble and solo performances to formal string arrangements for herself and for others\u2019 music to realizing her own graphic scores in performance. Her inclination to sing and play long tones on the viola at the same time has propelled her toward making sounds in resonant spaces such as tunnels and underpasses. She earned an MFA (Performer\/Composer) from California Institute of the Arts, studying with Sara Roberts and Wolfgang Von Schweinitz.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
