lung slag (2021) for string quartet

first page of score

lung slag is an experiment in information transmission and real time translation and is the 10th instalment in the Sonic Cartography series. Each performer has an individual fixed media audio track that plays in one other ear. Each performer interacts with the audio track as well as their colleagues.

Performers should listen to their respective tape track in one ear and have a way to track the time on a stand in front of them. Performers also read from score and must navigate two forms of information transmission simultaneously.

lung slag is 8 minutes long and was written for the JACK Quartet reading sessions at New Music on the Point, 2021.
