DESCRIPTION
I've been using contact microphones to manipulate gutted reel-to-reel machines in my live improvisations since about 1998. At first principally in the context of my work with Alexandre St-Onge in the duo undo, but also in all sorts of other configurations, with the groups: Set Fire to Flames, l'oreille à Vincent, Fly Pan Am, Klaxon Gueule, Mecha Fixes Clock; and with individuals: Tim Hecker, Martin Tétreault, Sam Shalabi, Magali Babin, etc.
The title Fingering encompasses the solo work with this setup.
finering is edited from a performance on Thursday August 9, 2007 at the Sala Rossa in Montreal.
figering is edited from a performance on Thursday October 28, 2004 at the Sala Rossa in Montreal as part of AlgoRythm(e)s organized by Perte de Signal.
