In this one-day workshop, Keith Fullerton Whitman  discusses the challenges one must face when approaching electronic instrumentation in an orchestral manner. His Redactions and Generators setups are on hand, and the choices made while designing and implementing their specific topologies over the course of a decade are demonstrated. While a familiarity with experimental electronic music and analogue synthesisers is helpful, the workshop is also centre on a broader discussion about how and why to implement chance and improvisational concepts within rigid compositional frameworks, and how to delineate risk and humanistic performance tendencies to simple, algorithmic systems.
