The fifth episode in the series continues to explore the idea of time in
music practice, particularly in relation to duration. The show looks at how
music is measured in terms of both micro and macroscopic intervals: through
granular synthesis, where sound is constructed from microscopic sonic
'grains', to extended works whose duration is measured not in minutes and
seconds, but years. Bringing together ideas and theories of the engineer
Denis Gabor and composers Iannis Xenakis and Curtis Roads, this episode
examines early tape and computer music works using granular and pulsar
synthesis. The show closes with a focus on two recent treatments of time in
music: by the German artist Hanne Darboven and media producer Terre
Thaemlitz.
