"experimental ambient. live performance for monome norns, piano, and juno 106 synthesizer.

a moment of stillness on the canyon floor. a bench just off the trail. the final minutes of autumn twilight. leaves rustling and crackling, a nuttall's woodpecker trilling, black phoebes chirping, the dwindling blur of traffic at the end of the day.

three piano melodies and juno 106 pads were recorded into norns and loaded into mlr, performed on the grid. the piano and synthesizer improvisations are played as-is, then layered, relooped, redirected, and reordered. in the background is the stereo field recording of that part of the canyon.
