Stereo

From the center of a vast continent, land stretching out endlessly in every direction, the waves and depths appear both menacing and enticing… an inexplicable fear of things submerged… of what lies below the surface… the water lies so far away… or so it seems…

Laurie Radford [xi-90]


Landlocked was created using the Synclavier II at McGill University and the UPIC system (designed by Iannis Xenakis) at Les Ateliers UPIC (known as CCMIX since 2000) in Paris. The work was subsequently mixed at McGill University in July of 1990.
