Maturtine from TRACE by Karl Leisky

'Matutine' was comprised of a series of short recordings sampled from live-performances staged throughout 2017. Harking back to the chance operations of Cage, or the serial strategies that inspired them, these fragments are fed through a set of randomising systems manipulate the material to a point inaccessible by what Leisky describes as ‘direct human-input based methods’. They are traces of intentionality, obliterated by chance-based, algorithmic modification.
