THE DOT AND THE LINE

2004
Out of Print

The Dot and the Line is a short run object based release with associative packaging. For this composition vintage player piano reels were altered by the artist and then played back on a foot pump driven player piano. The alteration of the reels consisted of a subtraction of notes, which produced the raw material for the final composition. The sound of the piano and the mechanism that drives it are both apparent in the piece. The packaging, which houses a 3 inch cdr, is directly inspired by the same materials that were used to create the music. A small, hand crafted resin box contains a cd wrapped in player piano paper.
