To: Thomas Gardner

There might be a place where two worlds can meet and co-exist.
A sound world of permanent relationships and independent behaviours.
The piece won a Honorary Mention at the 2000 Luigi Russolo prize.


Description:
Tolerance seeks to explore different simultaneous approaches to mixing a live instrument and tape. The piece has frequencial and gestural links between both mediums, and a somehow "human" presence together with a Cello part that sometimes is difficult to identify as an independent source of musical information.
Tolerance wants to be considered as a process of experimentation within the almost impossible to define borders of mixed electroacoutic pieces.


Abstract:
The concept of Perception and Interaction in Electronic arts brings to mind the limitless possibilities of Art when we talk. "Tolerance" is a piece for Cello and tape based in many different but simultaneous explorations.
The piece has frequencial and gestural links between both mediums, and a somehow "human" presence together with a Cello part that sometimes is difficult to identify as an independent source of musical information.
Tolerance wants to be considered as a process of experimentation within the almost impossible to define borders of mixed electroacoutic pieces.
Perception in "Tolerance" would be the process of selecting and defining a "position" as listener. One that gives you the option to decide the musical importance of each sound source and their relation to what the live instrument is actually performing.
Interaction would be the process of receiving the information from a live performance which includes much more than we, as audience, can actually see. The ears receive much more information than our eyes, therefore a process of linking materials, perceiving structures and relations could easily become a process of interaction where definitive parts of the music need to be filtered through the audience.

Acerca de la obra :

A: Thomas Gardner

Puede existir un lugar en donde dos mundos puedan encontrarse y coexistir.
Un mundo sonoro de relaciones permanentes y de comportamientos independientes.
Esta obra recibió la Mención Honorífica en el concurso Lugi Russolo del 2000.

Descripción:
Tolerance busca explorar diferentes aproximaciones simultáneas al hecho de mezclar instrumentos y cinta. La obra tiene uniones en el ámbito frecuencial y gestual entre ambos medios. De alguna manera una presencia "humana" junto con una parte de cello que en ocasiones es complicada de distinguir de manera independiente.
Tolerance quiere ser considerada como un proceso de experimentación dentro del casi indefinible mundo de la música electroacústica mixta.
