University of California San Diego professor and composer Lei Liang’s 'Six Seasons' makes music with Scripps Institution of Oceanography technology
If you attend a string quartet concert and the musicians are seated on platforms above you in the four corners of the hall, it’s a good bet that you are at the University of California San Diego.
You may not think that ice makes sounds, but the first two movements of “Six Seasons” use nothing but recorded ice. It crackles, crunches and hisses, the results of water freezing and ice plates breaking or rubbing against each other. These sounds were projected from speakers near each of the instrumentalists.
After a few minutes of ice crackling, violinist Maya Bennardo scraped her bow on her strings. What emerged was not a melody in any conventional sense, but short crunching sounds.
