<p dir="ltr">The score for <i>Wormwood </i>is inspired by worm tracings in the bark of a tree, photographed in Tasmania in September 2022. It features coloured shapes which represent different overtone pitch sets within an animated graphic score. These are generated in real-time to create a dynamic, interactive performance environment. </p><p dir="ltr">I worked with programmer Ciaran Frame to create a custom MAX patch that would animate the shapes across the screen at varying speeds and in shifting combinations, creating an action notation with a focus on the physicality and fluid, gestural quality of the bowed overtone techniques. </p><p dir="ltr">This file is a demo, captured on a screen recording in 2022. Each performance generates shapes in different orders, prompting improvisation. </p><p dir="ltr">Composition, Design: Helen Svoboda<br>Score Programming: Ciaran Frame</p><p dir="ltr"><br></p>
