about

Blind Date is a structured improvisation created and performed by composer Scott L. Miller and pianist Taavi Kerikmäe. Kerikmäe performs an electro-magnetically prepared piano using a custom system built by Igor Zubkov. Miller's Kyma system is engaged in digital signal processing of the sound emanating from the piano, not (as expected) converted into sound we hear, but returned to the piano where the Zubkov system further modulates it into (out-of-)control signals, causing the piano to respond with acoustic sound. What the listener hears is produced solely by the piano and not over loudspeakers. This entire feedback process transforms the piano into a sonic ecosystem, where the many various sounds attempt to find a balance of existence with each other.
