Waiting: The Jitter Patch
On 5 August 2009, the culmination of six weeks of Max programming took form as final performances in room 447 of ITP. I was the last performer, presenting a Jitter patch for a piece I wrote under my artist moniker, Noise Floor Music. The piece is called Waiting. The audio (sans video) is available here, and the PDF score (originally written for mezzo–soprano and tenor) is here.
Between 5 August 2009 and 26 September 2009, I organized and tweaked the patch for a performance with my composers collective 4 Acts @. The version on this Web site is the version I use live.
