Put On Your Tin Foil Hats

All sound processing of the EMF source material is done in Max/MSP, the patch uses four inputs from the electro-magnetic pickups. The patch is mainly incorporated to create rhythm in the source material and to create quasi-compositional events that usually last approximately 30 seconds to a minute, using granulators, distance simulating modules, samplers, sequencers, echo, reverb and comb filtering effects.

The patch also confines the performance to a 10 minute duration by literally switching off the [dac] when it hits that time limit.
