What Is An Outline? w/ Hydro Majestic & Caterina Barbieri 24.5.2016

What Is An Outline? is a monthly radio missive, tracing an damaged line where borders between musical styles glide and collide with one another: noise, ambient, experimental electronics, concrete, outsider manipulations.

This month: guest mix by Caterina Barbieri begins @ 1:01:00

Caterina Barbieri an Italian composer and performer of electronic music. A focus on minimalism in composition arises from a meditation on primary waveforms and exploration of the polyphonic and polyrhythmic potential of sequencers. By means of synthesis, pattern-based operations and subtractive/additive composition, her music draws severe geometries in time and space. Her work explores themes of machine intelligence and object-oriented perception in sound through approaching music practice as an integrative cognitive feedback between humans and technology. She has researched and produced music at the renowned EMS in Stockholm, where she has mostly composed for the Buchla 200 system.
