CYCOM: Acousmonium

Description

Acousmonium

Originally released in 2020 under the CYCOM moniker. Acousmonium would subsequently be reissued with a new catalog number and under the artist’s own name during the 9 Beet Stretch 2.0 fundraiser. Contains a single 1 hour track made up of three movements.

Acousmonium takes its name from the Acousmonium sound diffusion system designed in 1974 by François Bayle and used by the Groupe de Recherches Musicales at the Maison de Radio France. It consisted of 80 loudspeakers of different sizes and shapes designed for tape playback. The Acousmonium was defined by its originators as a
“listening and penetrable ‘projection area,’ arranged with a view with the immersion in sound, and spatialized polyphony, which is articulated and directed.”

Please Note: This is a CD-R release.
