CARL STONE :: HAN BAT INSTALLATION :: C-Square Gallery, Chukyo University :: 101-2 Yagoto Honmachi Showa-ku :: NAGOYA JP :: June 30 at 6:30 pm.

HAN BAT is a multi-channel sound installation work by Carl Stone that builds from slow juxtapositions of various acoustic dimensions and spatializations that were enregistered using a special 8-channel portable recording system, The Octaphone, in 2007 and 2008. The Octaphone was developed by Carl Stone in collaboration with Professor Oizumi Kazufumi, of Chukyo University, and features 8 separate microphone capsules connected to two four-channel recorders, mounted on a specially designed transport bar that is light and small enough for portability.

In this installation version, processing and spatialization of the sounds is achieved using Max/MSP and based on algorithmic software program that proceeds largely without human intervention, In live performances, Stone intercedes and guides the processing, plus adds additional elements.

After a live performance June 30th at 6:30 p.m., the installation portion of the exhibition will continue until July 26 2008.
