Morning Ragas by Steve Peters
Exhibited June 2005 as part of Art Outside VI, curated by Jake Seniuk at Port Angeles Fine Arts Center in Port Angeles, WA.
All of the sounds in this site-specific work were recorded during one weekend in early May, 2005 in Webster's Woods, the five-acre outdoor sculpture park at PAFAC: environmental sound (birds, ship's horn, etc.), natural objects, and some of the many sculptures encountered in the park. The raw field recordings were edited and electronically processed, resulting in a series of birdsong "solos" over gradually shifting loops and drones. The piece is intended to be heard at low volume through headphones on a personal audio player while wandering the trails, mixing with the live sounds.
