I give my complete attention
To a very good friend of mine
He's quadraphonic, he's a
He's got more channels
So hologramic, oh my TVC one five
I brought my baby home, she, she sat around forlorn
She saw my TVC one five, baby's gone, she
She crawled right in, oh my, she crawled right in my
So hologramic, oh my TVC one five
Oh, so demonic, oh my TVC one five

1978 Lincoln Radio with Quadrasonic Stereo.
Lincoln Town Coupe.
Still working fine with a suit case full of 8 track tapes to choose from.
Aka: Quadraphonic Stereo.
Quadraphonic Tape Recorder and Amplifier Receiver. Quadradial. Quadraphonic systems never caught on because of cost, complexity, the fact that there were rival systems, and that some of the recordings placed the listener in the middle of the orchestra, a very unnatural place to listen to music. The idea is being revived in 'Home Theatre Systems' where being placed in the centre of the action adds to the excitement. The tape recorder is Sony (Japan) and the receiver (not visible) is Harman Kardon (US). c1975.
“TORSO #1” is a sound sculpture that is visually reminiscent of a “Klopotec,” a windmill-like scarecrow. Like the wings of a windmill, four 100V loudspeakers rotate and generate sound signals plus feedback in the room. Static microphones simultaneously transmit the movement of the sculpture via a quadraphonic PA system. The sound movements can be perceived both horizontally and vertically, creating a completely unorthodox listening experience. All sounds were specially designed for this unique system and maximize its psychoacoustic effect.

The sounds of the Body is Big Place:
“Peta and Helen first approached me at the end of 2009. While I frequently work on collaborative projects in performance, I was intrigued that two visual artist with very defined oeuvres were choosing to come together to create a collaborative work—one that clearly pushed beyond their normal realms of practice with its bio-art implications. I found their personal works and their concept for this piece very evocative.
There are two aspects to the sound design that function in a modular fashion. The first is the quadraphonic soundscape that accompanies the video installation. For this I used material recorded with a hydrophone during the Melbourne Baths shoot. Interestingly the sound during the shoot did not yield much material of interest, as there were too many distracting noises such as the scuba equipment and chairs scraping on the bottom of the pool. In fact the hydrophone recordings were disappointingly sparse, not anywhere near as rich as what we imagined of submersion. To my understanding, any bass tones which we assume should be present, are not audible as the conduction of the water extends the sound waves to lengths/pitches below our hearing. I suspect any sub-frequencies we think we hear are the effect of pressure and blockage of our own faculties—the sounds of the fluids and workings of our own bodies. Thus the material from the hydrophone was multipli-manipulated using pitch and time shifting, and aggressive equalising to reach the state of our imagined immersion. As the intention was to create a sensual environment, actions on various screen are subtly accompanied by half heard, heavily disguised vocal material creating a sense of suspension and ascension.
The second aspect of the installation is the heart perfusion system. I attended a test experiment and made recordings with both condenser and contact mikes to see if I might be able to use and manipulate sounds from the system itself. However it was only really possible to ascertain the full extent to which this might work when final system was erected in the gallery as the materials—in the test plastic, in the gallery glass—offered different potentials. A lovely surprise is that the majority of the time, the water circulation creates an amazing, regular sucking sound, something I had been aiming for but which the machine creates perfectly, unaided. During installation times there is a pre-composed soundscape drawn from the system’s noises that plays through another two speakers. In the live performances of the heart perfusion system, I improvise with the machine, using two contact mikes extracting resonant frequencies to create a drone and focussing attention on the fluids in process in order to transmit its subtleties into the space.”

Institute of Musical Arts just off Crenshaw Blvd in the Park Mesa Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
The Institute of Musical Arts (IMA) was founded in 1922 as a music training facility by German immigrant Raymond G. Hand who operated a music school in the facility for almost 20 years.
As the demographics of the neighborhood shifted, the area soon reflected the rich culture of the significant number of Japanese Americans who resided and owned business in the area, which became known as the Angeles Mesa section of the general Crenshaw area.
Another demographic shift in the late 1950s and early 1960s brought larger numbers of Black Americans into the area, and in 1972, Ray G. Clark and Oliver P. Brown (both Howard University engineering graduates) built a Quantum Quadraphonic Audio Mixing console and completely remodeled the IMA, converting it into a state-of-the-art music recording studio. Clark and Brown applied their aerospace engineering knowledge and skills to develop innovative techniques to recording popular artists, campaign ads and corporate training materials.
Despite Ray Charles and Ike and Tina Turner running nearby studios, it was widely regarded as THE place to record, and was known for having the “best sound in town”. Its long list of recording alumni include, Marvin Gaye, Bobby Womack, Nancy Wilson, Ernie Watts, Billy Davis, Ndugu Chancler and Patrice Rushen.

In memory of David Bowie. This song is quite involved and intricate. Beautiful in sound. It's all about a girlfriend who climbs into her boyfriends TV, and is missing, and he then also goes in to find her.

Maybe if I pray every, each night I sit there pleading
"Send back my dream test baby, she's my main feature"
My T V C one five, he, he just stares back unblinking
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
One of these nights I may just
Jump down that rainbow way. Be with my baby, then
We'll spend some time together
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five
My baby's in there someplace, love's rating in the sky
So hologramic, oh my T V C one five

Pink Floyd Rock Legend Roger Waters at the American Airlines Center, Dallas, TX. Роджер Уотерс и Пинк Флойд в Далласе.
Roger Waters is coming back to Toronto! The state-of-the-art theatrical stagings, projections, a 3D quadraphonic sound system and 240-foot-wide and 35-foot-tall and tumbling walls are once again being set up inside the Rogers Center this June 2012 when Roger Waters returns to Toronto to perform the classic Pink Floyd album 'The Wall' in its entirety!!! This massive tour is on another leg around the world with stops in South Ameria and all across the US and Canada. The last time Roger Waters stopped in Toronto, in late 2010, it was the first time The Wall was performed in its entirety since the fall of the Berlin Wall, so Toronto is sure to be another special stop on the tour and definitely not one to miss out on, especially if you weren't able to make the last one.
