Firing Squad 2.0 preview

new and improved live performance. just composing the final version still. performing this at Elektra 2011.

televisions were filmed in my studio and then cut up into clips. The clips are triggered via midi composition and improvisation in ableton live. what you see is what you hear.
more limited live though, can't layer more than 3 clips at a time and no fade in our out so getting maximum mileage out of straight cut and pasting, all driven by ableton live.

The performance @ Elektra was amazing! Thanks for putting this together.

@exoriven glad you liked it! Elektra had the best set up so it really came off the way I wanted there.

This is brilliant. How long have you been working on this?

[shinjiseiko]

@dudesons441 I made the first version of it (which was very different) for Electric Fields in Ottawa. Since then I've reshot everything and rewritten 3/4 of it. It's never going to be "finished" just performed in different ways... different revisions. So far though, it's been about 4 months. thanks!

@djredlink thanks, 5min more of material and it'll be ready to perform!
