[ale] Using Open Source for Electronic Music: Artist Talk and Concert, Sept. 13th at Eyedrum

[arxaaron]

Just a reminder:
==============
Monday, Sept. 13th, Eyedrum is featuring Nathaniel
Bartlett, a modern classical composer and musician
whose performances mix the rich, natural sounds of his
5 octave marimba with sophisticated digital effects
processing and triggered electronic soundscapes
presented within the rich spacial environment of
8 speakers in cubic surround sound configuration.

Nathaniel has a sense of ethos about the accessibility
of his electronic music compositions and performance,
so he exclusively uses Free, Open Source software
and Operating Systems for generating the electronic
effects, soundscapes and spacial manipulations he
uses to enrich his virtuoso talents as a percussionist.

His 5 octave marimba is a unique instrument to
experience in concert  by itself, but his custom built
Linux computer system (dubbed "Atlas"), and his
software controlled surround sound system are
equally impressive.

FREE ARTIST TALK / Q&A == 7:30 - 8:30pm
where Mr. Bartlett will share the details of his
instruments, software, music and performance
style.

CONCERT will follow at 9:00pm

I had the pleasure of enjoying Nathaniel Bartlett
in concert when he performend at Eyedrum in
July, 2009.  It was an exceptional experience,
one I highly recommend to all music lovers
with any level of appreciation for classical or
electronic genres.
