THE OTOLITH GROUP & RADICANT_EDITIONS PRESENT TYLER FRIEDMAN + SETH AYYAZ
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]The Otolith Collective’s Department of Xenogenesis and Radicant_Editions present a concert celebrating the release of the LP METLASR by Tyler Friedman.
METLASR is an album for microtonal idiophone ensemble and modular synthesizer. It draws on the legacies of downtown minimalism, connecting avant-garde composition, aspects of global traditional musics and advanced synthesis techniques into an endless cascade of pirouetting geometric melodics in 24 note per octave Just Intonation.
Friedman’s performance will be a structured improvisation in the style of the album: spectrally fusing the virtual pitched percussion (Gamelan, Vibraphone, Mbira, Tingklik, Marimba) with analogue electronics – accumulating into a glowing harmonic mass and immersive hypnotic whorl.
Returning to Café Oto, Seth Ayyaz will present a new configuration of hQi.LIVE, his long-term SuperCollider system. Working with nay and tonbak, electroacoustic transformation, machine listening, and generative processes, the live improvisation unfolds over 8-channel surround.
Drawing on the melodic and rhythmic logics of Middle Eastern musics, the performance is in tension with maqām and iqā‘āt traditions, using algorithms, micro-tuning, and generative synthesis to produce asymmetric pulses, cyclical forms, and destabilised time.
