| artist: tomas phillips/dean king
title: á travers le bord
cat#: nvo_oo7
format: cd
release date: may 06
limited edition: 300
the product of a definite convergence of ideas as well as my own nascent french, the title á travers le bord can be interpreted as both a ‘crossing through’ a material edge or border and a liminal move from exterior to interior, or vice versa, in terms of, for example, flesh, or more generally, selfhood. a happy accident. though i would never presume to attribute any central meaning to music, such border crossings are a constant in my life and most likely inform my composition process as it unfolds in front of the laptop, moving or being still, listening, inside or out. it’s a delightful paradox, the ongoing flux that finds its faithful correlate in the pull towards a relative silence and calm. also delightful was my good friend and collaborator dean king’s willingness to contribute sound material for this piece, in addition to a much needed critical ear. after a few limited edition cd-r releases as eto ami, we were due a joint project. many of these sounds i processed further and set about composing – a long and sometimes arduous course that prompted its own numerous excursions through borders. most importantly, however, i was reminded of the pleasures of camaraderie, even at a distance.
