Program Note: |
Are you ripe at last, / my slim pale double-breasted turd? consists, for most of its duration, of a single monophonic melody clumsily sputtering between the loudspeakers, like a confused tourist or a caged weasel. It was created using a digital FM synthesizer the composer inadvertently built incorrectly (an unnecessary sample-and-hold placed in the signal path where it didn't belong), leading it to create glitchy, rarely-predictable sounds.
