Eustress
A piece by Alex Keller

At the Austin New Music Coops
Electrons and Phonons IV
Curated by William Meadows
Systems behave weirdly under stress. A government, a partnership, an individual, and a musical instrument are all systems that can be used to illustrate this phenomenon. Psychologists use the term "eustress" to describe the circumstance in which stress, by presenting it a new challenge to adapt to, makes an individual more highly functioning than normal.
In my piece Eustress, a prepared bass guitar is subjected to unusual mechanical stress by tuning it much higher than it normally could be. The performer is instructed to use his or her judgement as to how much stress to subject the bass guitar to, up to and including its destruction.
The analysis of any system under stress is usually stressful to the observer, because he or she is watching something that might be irrevocably lost. Do not consider the instrument so preciously during Eustress. Cracking under stress might be the finest sound a bass guitar can make.
