Electronic Chamber Music

As this year's version of Electronic Chamber Music is about to kick off, here is a video excerpt from our final concert last year.


Composition by Brian Kelley. Performed by Conor Barry & Brian Kelley (electronics), Alex Huryk (violin), and Simon Alexander-Adams (piano). Two performers sample and loop live talk radio and rebroadcast it via an FM transmitter. By inserting themselves into the broadcast loop, they effectively subvert, co-opt, and mediate the medium. Two instrumentalists improvise with the rebroadcast signal, received on another FM radio receiver.
