about

The result of a commission by Harvard's Carpenter Center for the Arts & resident artist Damon Krukowski, an attempt to sonify the "unplayable record" of Ezra Pound reading one of his Cantos in 1939 turned into a performance of all of the "incorrect" mappings of polar point-to-coordinate data as a themed "Redaction"

Here is a recording of the concert, followed by a selection of the sonifications used as source material, which synthesize & spectrally map Pound's cadence via a series of sustained & iterative engines. This was very early on in the "Redactions" lifespan & was the first of the commissioned, focused takes.

Electronic musician and composer Keith Fullerton Whitman performs Ezra Pound Redactions, as part of Damon Krukowski: NOT TO BE PLAYED. The exhibition includes enlarged digital scans from the delaminated master disc of Pound’s 1939 readings. Fullerton processes data from the scans through his analog-modular system to create complex sounds and real-time sonorizations.

Keith Fullerton Whitman is a musician currently based in Cambridge, MA. Fullerton’s work continues to develop truly “live electronic music," that incorporates an ever-changing hardware-based modular system that allows for a complexity of sounds that had previously only been available via software-solutions. Starting in the mid-1990's while working on a "Music Synthesis" Degree at Boston's Berklee College of Music, Keith began exploring electronic music's many facets, eventually yielding dozens of full length albums, singles, remixes, and compilation appearances for influential labels such as Kranky, Editions Mego,PAN, Planet µ, Carpark, Room40, Amethyst Sunset, Amish, NNA Tapes, No Fun Productions, Agents of Chaos, Arbor, Digitalis Limited, Ekhein, Heavy Tapes, Rare Youth, Root Strata, and many more.
