Listening, breaking down, and speaking up is a stochastic algorithmic sound composition that weaves recordings of digestive sounds, including bowel movements and chewing, with improvisational expressions of the transversal flute, sax tenor and soprano. The audio was composed using a call-and-response method whereby I produced a collage of digestive sounds, to which Brazilian musician Jota P freely responded using the three wind instruments. The audio layers were then sent to a generative algorithm that randomized the intervals of each recording’s playback, dispersing the fragments unpredictably across eight output channels wired to speakers embedded within each horn.
