Demolition Spectra was realized using two field recordings. The primary one was a recording of the demolition of our old local Peel Memorial Hospital where one of my daughters was born and where my mother died. Walking by it regularly over a number of months, I watched it being demolished, wing by wing. Attracted by the sounds of the machinery—cranes, tractors, trucks—and bricks and metal, falling debris, I stood on the other side of railroad tracks, across from the site and recorded the main sound source for this piece. The other sound source is of a leap hopper from Ecuador. This was recorded using contact microphones, as the insect's 'sound' is only audible as vibrations through the material it is sitting on. The insect sound was processed through my Kyma system. The demolition audio was itself 'demolished' using IRCAM's concatenative synthesis software, CataRT. Both audio sources were disassembled according to descriptor-based analysis and then reassembled improvisationally, moving between sound points. For me, the demolition was personally meaningful, but the sounds' vibrations are indications of other dimensions of existence with a meaning wholly mysterious
