7/29/04
is a prototype indeterminate composition designed for the
online environment. Consisting only of spare piano chords and
silence,
the piece is indeterminate in composition (it will be different
on each listening, through use of chance procedures) and
indefinite in duration (it will play continuously for as long
as the listener
wishes, and thus can be of any possible length). When the
button above is pressed, 7/29/04 will begin playing and continue
until
the listener hits stop, continually rearranging its components
into new patterns. 7/29/04
requires Flash and
a fast Internet connection. This is the first in a series
of indeterminate compositions created in collaboration with
programmer
Craig Swann of CRASH!MEDIA.
