Just wanted to share this....
.... if you're interested....
Using a 45 year old recording, an old Akai quarter-track, some nifty restoration with iZotope RX - some sampling, manipulation and processing with favourites MachFive and Evolution - all wrapped up in DP.
Put that together with haunting images from New College Chapel, Oxford, and it feels like a kind of exorcism.
'The Boy Who Said Yes'

Oh, and that's my voice, taken from a performance of 'Der Jasager' by Kurt Weill.
That statue terrified me.
Cheers!!
Stephen
ps - it helps to up the video resolution

Re: Just wanted to share this....
I like it. What part is the old recording, the voice or piano?

Re: Just wanted to share this....
It's both the piano and the voice - I had to reinforce the piano a little bit.
'The Boy' is responding to questions from 'The Teacher' (not heard here)
long story short - Boy travels with Teacher across the mountains to fetch medicine for sick Mother - falls ill on journey, and tradition dictates that the one who falls ill should decide whether the travellers should turn back, or if he should be thrown into the abyss so that the group can continue.
By answering 'Yes' the Boy sacrifices himself to save his Mother.
Pretty heavy stuff for a thirteen year old!!
Cheers!

*sorry beautiful reference is to overall imagery and sound, not yer ugly mug!
(was that you right near the end, standing, looking up and to the left?)

…string theory says that all subatomic particles of the universe are nothing but musical notes. A, B-flat, C-sharp, correspond to electrons, neutrinos, quarks, and what have you. Therefore, physics is nothing but the laws of harmony of these strings. Chemistry is nothing but the melodies we can play on these strings. The universe is a symphony of strings and the mind of God… it is cosmic music resonating through 11 dimensional hyperspace.
