The new year starts with a new and special free track of the month! Here.
In 2009 I plan to turn an idea into reality that is in my head since quite a while: Performing electronic dance music with multiple channels of audio. Everyone who heard Layering Buddha Live or any other of my surround performances will agree that this is an exciting perspective. Currently I work on the technical and musical aspects of that idea.
And there is a strong connection between working on new material for the performances in 2009 and my work on new Monolake tracks for releases.Next Atom performance will be in Berlin, on January 29th at Berghain. I have no idea how we will fit in the balloons and some audience, but we will see...
"Drives is a compilation of hundreds of 3-5 second shots edited from televised Professional Golf Association (PGA) footage. To create Drives I selected only those moments when the golf ball was floating in mid-air. The title incorporates the multiple meanings the word conveys: a long shot in golf, or a powerful need, emotion or instinct that motivates behavior. The movement of the ball is both graceful and erratic, seemingly random, yet structured by a system (the order in which the drives were made).
Drives, an installation by Lisa Young, Cue Art Foundation in Chelsea, New York from December 4th, 2008 till January 24th, 2009.
The music for Drives is the Robert Henke track "Signal to Noise II" .
