about

"YCAL Mix" (1990-1995) was part of a long-term collaboration with Yeast Culture, from Seattle. For our project, we had a rule that we had to be a material exchange as well as a sound exchange. The material consisted of an article of clothing to produce sound with. When I moved to a new house, I somehow lost the box that contained that article of clothing, but I still have the reel to reel tapes. In 1990, I recorded "YCAL", which stands for Yeast Culture Assemblage Loops because it uses sound material recorded by Yeast Culture for his track on the "Assemblage" compilation 7" from 1989, after I wrote a very long score for it on a computer. That score is lost too, but I recall that it had to do with the length of loops and the time that each was to be on the four-track. The project was shelved until April 1995, when I had access to a four-track again and mixed the tape down onto DAT, which is the version on this CD. Regard it as my version of Cage's "Mozart Mix".
