2Northern Symphony (Movement 4, 2001) Composed by Paul Walde. Performed by the Jordan Mann Ensemble. Recorded live at Malaspina Printmakers Gallery, Vancouver as part of the Northern Symphony installation. In 2001 I composed a five-movement work to accompany my multi-component installation Northern Symphony. The score was derived from markings made by beavers on a tree felled in front of my studio at Rock Lake, Ontario. The markings were transcribed to manuscript paper and then input into a Macintosh computer using music notation software (IGOR engraver). Seven segments of the gnawed tree trunk provided seven musical sketches that were subsequently edited into the five movements. The resulting score was intended for use both as a point of departure and interpretation by DJs and musicians/sound artists, but also for performance by a modified string quartet. © 2001, 2010 Paul Walde 1:48
3Northern Symphony - Movement 4 Time Stretch (2010) Live remix of Northern Symphony movement 4 by Paul Walde at Malaspina Printmakers Gallery, Vancouver, 2010. Over the past nine years Northern Symphony has been re-presented in various permutations. During this time, I have amassed a large collection of remixes, mashes, improvisations, reconstructions, and interpretations of this work. Endless remixing provides an audio equivalent of the process that takes place in the mind of the spectator in the reception of any work of art. Recently I have started creating my own remixes and performances that contribute to this process. © 2010 Paul Walde 10:55
4Composition for Light, Percussion and Ultrasound (Excerpt, 2010) Composed by Paul Walde. Recorded live at Electric Eclectics 5, Meaford, 2010. In Composition for Light, Percussion and Ultrasound seven drums with clear drum heads are set up in a field at night with high powered lights and microphones placed in each. Throughout the evening, insects—including moths—attracted by the light congregate on and above the drums. The sound of the landing insects is amplified through a sound system placed around the drums. At intervals, ultrasonic recordings of bats are piped through the sound system triggering an evasive response from the moths who fall from the sky landing on the drums in groups. © 2010 Paul Walde 1:41
5Diatonic Guitars (Audio study for sound installation, 2011) Composed by Matt Rogalsky. This is an example of the kind of sound that will form my guitar installation. This study has seven guitars’ strings tuned to the single notes of a major scale. The strings are driven by sine wave impulses that occur in a semi-random fashion creating an ambient sound environment. In the soon to be realized installation, the strings of twelve guitars will be driven by sine wave impulses tracking the frequencies of the broadcasted sound from a classic rock radio station, thus the harmonies that occur amongst the guitars will be directly related to the broadcast content. © 2011 Matt Rogalsky 4:48
6Hadavar (The Word) (2008-2010) Audio available on CD only. Composed by Dániel Péter Bíro. Text based on the Book of Jeremiah, Chapter 34:8-12.

Recorded at the Experimental Studio during the Mehrklang Festival. Hadavar was commissioned by Vancouver New Music and the German Radio (SWR) with help from the Canada Council for the Arts and the BC Arts Council, and was awarded the 2010 Gigahertz Prize from the ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany and the Experimental studio in Freiburg, Germany. © 2008–2010 Dániel Péter Bíro -
7Triptyque (2010) Audio available on CD only. Composed and realized by Émilie Payeur. Triptych: “A picture or carving in three compartments side by side, the lateral ones being usually hinged so as to fold over the central one.” This piece is an attempt at exploring architecture, structure, and textures within my music. It has a classical ABA structure. The first movement of Triptyque was composed in Montreal and the two subsequent ones were done at the University of North Texas during a composition residency. Triptyque won at the 36th Concours Internationaux de Musique Electroacoustique de Bourges, 2009 edition and received third place at JTTP Competition 2010. © 2010 Émilie Payeur -
