about

The Whitemud is a freeway here in Edmonton connecting neighborhoods on the south side to suburbia in the southwest. It's always humming with traffic -- except for "rush" hour when the traffic slows to a crawl because it's so jammed. In the mix of this track is a recording of the Whitemud that I did one weekday afternoon. Although I enjoy the sounds of nature, it's also interesting to listen to the sounds of traffic sometimes (I find) for the varieties of noise textures overlapping in intensity -- often a big band but occasionally a soloist takes the stage.

My mom passed away awhile ago now, but she was my piano teacher from age 5 until high school -- classical music, which I had a difficult time connecting to sometimes -- okay, often. The (what do they call it) "treated" piano is a way to dig into the compost of memories and just have some fun.

Creating atmospheres and soundscapes to support live theatre led Wayne to collaboration and involvement in the local experimental music and sound art scene. He has been a board member of the Boreal Electroacoustic Music Society in Edmonton, Canada for several years, and frequently contributes performances to events in galleries, theatres, and out door festivals
