Thieves

for cello and interactive computer (max/msp/jitter)
composed 2006; duration app. 12 minutes
world premiere may 18 2006
Reykjavik Arts Festival 2006, Reykjavik (Iceland)
premiered by Sigurdur Haldorsson and Lars Graugaard

This is essentially an improvised work with a development based on an instruction set. It is the result of collaborations with Sigurdur Haldorsson at earlier occasions, and the playing of the cello is used to transform both the realtime processing of the instrument as well as the computer accompaniment in various ways. The instruction set – the score – is not available until a formal notation is required for external performance.
