Alveromancy; the act of conjuring using sound

1) Calabi Yau (G2 manifold) is a massive, droning, striated solo electric guitar improvisation with it's title is taken from string theory;

2) Deep Blue Dreaming is an electronic improvisation using audiomulch. Deep Blue was the IBM computer that defeated the human chess champion Gary Kasparov in 1997. now, with the growing sentience of AI computers, programmers are hoping to give them the ability to actually dream. "Commerce is our goal... 'more human than human' is our motto." - Eldon Tyrell in Blade Runner

3) Morpheus Descending free falls into the subconcious underworld as it rises up to meet you, leading you through a topography of shadowed memories and cleansing enigmas. skin drum, erhu, conch, melting ice, shortwave, flute, Tibetan bowl, electronics.

4) Beneath the City the darkness weaves together the muffled rumble of traffic, the diffused keening of subway trains on the rails, the rush of ghostly air streams you hear but never feel, the threatening hum and crackle of electric mainlines and the shaking of the earth itself. shortwave, electronics, sax.

5) Ariel, the magical air spirit in Shakespeare's The Tempest appears here clad in white noise and glass

6) Aurora (Daughter of Heaven) is an improvised electric guitar duet named for both the mythology of the dawn as well as the shifting, pulsing curtains of light dancing in the night sky.

7) The Visitation is processed harmonics and percussion with an orchestral character and Pandia on voice. in the middle of the night, in the dark, amidst the echoes, in the solitude... revelation.

Dedicated to Arie van Schutterhoef
