“My relationship with Dr. Moog and Moog Music goes back to the late 1990’s. I first saw a theremin at UNCA music department, thanks to Dr. Wayne Kirby, and was immediately fascinated with it. Soon after that, I began working part-time at Dr.Moog’s factory building theremins. In the year so follow, I must have built, tested and played a few thousand Etherwave Theremins for Moog Music, as well as demonstrating the instrument at NAMM shows and conventions. This is where I honed my technique on the instrument and became familiar with many of its possibilities and quirks.”

Darren Ziesing (Stalker)...
Darren Ziesing is currently based in Canberra performing as an experimental electronic musician,escaping to write the majority of his work up in the Snowy Mountains. He has worked on numerous collaborative albums and now releases under the project names stalker and liife (GEO records).
Darren is most popularly known as stalker which is his analogue dance music project. Stalker has played at The Big Day Out, Frigid at the Opera house, The National Portrait Gallery Opening, Satellite and many other such events. The style is of repetitive minimalism where the individual parts in the music subtly change but the overall sequence stays the same. Although primarily dance music, the stalker project also includes Darren's amazingly beautiful ambient work and open air sound sculptures. He says that with these, "I am trying to capture...mimmic the thick atmospheres and sounds of nature using the organic and changeable nature of analogue synthesisers."
Liife is his new side project soon for release which is influenced by Indian classical music, particularly the rhythmical construction, Involving constant change of pace and melody. This work is primarily digital computer music and is a lot more intensive and complex than stalker.

YouTube via turunda. sent my way via muratkonarfan "loopqoob is a physical performance system consisting of one or more sensor-equipped cubes connected to a computer based music generation/synthesis system. The orientation of the cubes determines an aspect of the music to be played.
In the implementation presented, there are three cubes. Each face of each cube is mapped to a musical motif or loop. The 'cubist' controls which motifs are played by orienting the cubes so that the face corresponding to the desired motif faces up.

"Just like modular synthesizers, people connect with each other in order to achieve diverse objectives. In Voltage, robots, half-human and half-synthesizer, powered by a huge amount of energy, connect to each other in an electric and chaotic trance.
