Friday, January 30	Installation from 4:45 p.m. until 6 p.m. Live performance at 8 p.m.	CNMAT	composer/artist/instrument builder Jean-François Laporte	sound installation and live performance	free and open to the public	Khôra Scattered accross the site, the vibrations of twenty or so invented instruments bathe the public in their movements. Unaltered sounds of surprising depth, without amplification nor processing, of a hyper-real character that borders on the unreal. No speaker nor microphone are hidden behind the vibrating membrane of the instruments. Music of mass and of movements, it has for motif the fluctuating evolution of similar timbres organizing themselves by accumulation and proliferation, fostering the birth of an extremely organic sound universe. Polyphony becomes one global harmony, a total timbre, and behind its quasi-static globality hide extremely lively units. BIOGRAPHY Jean-François Laporte takes an intuitive approach to creating music, learning through concrete experimentation with sound. By actively listening to each sound, he strives to understand its reality and its underlying structure. His music is the result of working closely with the raw materials of sound. These sounds come from the everyday environment or from both traditional and invented instruments, with no form of hierarchy. Drawing on this diversity of sound sources, Jean-François works in multiple musical languages from instrumental to electroacoustic and also ventures at times into the exploration of random and improvised sounds. In November 2002, he received several Opus awards, which honor excellence in the Québec music community. These included Composer of the year, Discovery of the year, with his piece Tribal being named Composition of the year. Last year, his work Prana received first prize in the mixed music category of the 23rd International Luigi Russolo electroacoustic music competition. Along with his activities as a composer, Jean-François has been developing and making musical instruments that produce unconventional sounds. The composer recently added robotic and computerized controls to some of his invented instruments , giving them new autonomy and increasing their possibilities Increasingly, these inventions are attracting attention in theatre and visual arts circles.

Monday, January 26	4PM	3210 Tolman Hall	Berkeley Ear Club - Dan Levitin Department of Psychology McGill University	Lecture	free	"Adventures in Pitch and Melody Perception" I will review recent work from my laboratory on the nature of the perception of auditory sequences, in most cases, musical melodies. Study 1 investigates the role of spectral-temporal properties of melody and reveals that people can be trained to have absolute memory for timbre. Study 2 investigates the role of rythmic cues, and melody identification when pitch is absent. Study 3 extends our earlier work on memory for pitch by degrading the pitch cues in a melody by replacing them with band-passed white noise. Band-passed white noise yields an indefinite pitch when played in isolation, yet two or more different noise bursts of this type reveal a strong sense of pitch. We argue this is because relative cues kick in to create a retrospective sense of pitch in a stimulus that is at first heard as ambiguous. As a demonstration of the effect, individual noise bursts are heard simply as noise, but sequences of them can be strung together to reveal familiar songs, played with "noise." The work has implications for theories of absolute versus relative memory and tonal recognition.
Friday, January 23	3PM	CNMAT	Manfred Schroeder Two Lectures: Concert Hall Acoustics and Number Sequences to Generate Melodies	Lecture	free and open to the public	Together the two talks will last a bit over an hour. Manfred Schroeder served as a distinguished member of the research staff of AT&T Bell Laboratories for 33 years. From 1958 to 1969 he was Director of Acoustic and Speech Research at the labs. Since 1969, he has divided his time between the US and the Univerity of Goettigen, Germany, where he is Professor of Physics. Dr. Schroeder is also a founding member of the Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustic/Musique (IRCAM) of the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Dr. Schroeder is noted for his fundamental research in concert hall acoustics. He is holder of 45 US patents for inventions in various fields. He won the Gold Medal of the Audio Engineering Society and the Lord Rayleigh Medal in 1972 and 1987 respectively. Among his most notable inventions are concert hall diffusers that employ reflection phase gratings based on number theoretic principles. In addition to numerous papers, Dr. Schroeder has authored the following three books: Computer Speech: Recognition, Compression, Synthesis (Springer Series in Information Sciences, 35 Springer-Verlag 1999 Fractals, Chaos, Power Laws: Minutes from an Infinite Paradise W. H.

Bertram Turetzky
Bert Turetzky is well known as a virtuoso contrabassist, and is one of the few performers in the history of Western music to have an entire library of music written specifically for him. He is thus considered to be one of the most important string players in the second half of the last century. As a performer, he has appeared in the music capitals of the world, always to the highest praise. His many recordings are well known and influential, and, in 1974, he was commissioned to write a book about his instrument. "The Contemporary Contrabass" outlined his research and extensions of technique that he developed. This book, combined with his performances and recordings, have literally changed the way that composers write for the instrument and people play it. In a sense, Bert Turetzky reinvented the contrabass. This volume was so well-written and successful, the UC Press asked him to coedit a series called "The New Instrumentation," for which he has arranged seven books to date (with the eighth one in the oven, so to speak). His introduction to the autobiography of "Pops" Foster has been acclaimed by some as the best writing in English on the early development of jazz bass playing. He has been commissioned and published as a composer here and abroad, and his arrangements and editions are also published and in wide use today.

Drawing heavily on their diverse musical and generational influences they are an atypical jazz trio. Musical roles are mixed and reversed. Drums become melodic, guitars become percussive; they all become interchangeable. The music's improvisational chamber like approach contrasts the ever-changing exploration of time signatures and polyphony. While the breadth of their musical experiences is great the sum of their collaboration is even greater.

Widely recognized as one of the most creative and innovative guitarists, improvisers, and producers in the fields of rock, jazz and experimental music, California-based musician Henry Kaiser is one of the most extensively recorded as well, having appeared on more than 140 different albums.

Chris Muir has been embroiled in computers and music for over twenty years. He has been heavily involved in creating interactive music environments for much of that time. An accomplished musician and composer, he has been involved with many projects, in many genres. Current projects include projects with "Yo Miles!", "Lunar Asylum" and "Zen Disaster".

David Wessel directs UC Berkeley's Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT). He has worked in the computer-based electroacoustic music field since the late 60's. His primary focus continues to be live-performance practice where improvisation plays a central role.

That Situated Trio

John Schott, guitar
Matthew Wright, interactive electronics
David Wessel, interactive electronics

John Schott moved to the Bay Area in 1988 from his hometown Seattle, where
he studied with jazz legends Julian Priester and Gary Peacock and classical
composer Bun-Ching Lam. John is a member of the groove-jazz band T. J. Kirk,
nominated for a Grammy for their 1997 release "If Four Was One." Among many
other recordings, he has four CDs under his own leadership, most recently
"Shuffle Play: Elegies For The Recording Angel." His avant folk-jazz-blues
band, The Typical Orchestra, plays frequently around the Bay Area. He lives
in Berkeley with his partner Naomi and their son Ezra.

David Wessel is the director of the UC Berkeley Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT), and an expert on music perception and cognition and on the use of computer-based instruments for live improvised performance. He is particularly interested in live-performance computer music where improvisation plays an essential role.

Matthew Wright is CNMAT's Music Systems Designer and has over ten years' experience creating and playing custom computer-based musical instruments. He puts together hardware and software, and writes a lot of software, to make music. His research interests mostly have to do with interactive live performance.
