Smaller distances and territories take on a new, and often highly individualised, significance, and the piece is intended as a broader reflection on boundaries and borders as interference effects between differing spaces, places and concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Microterritories: Lost and Found Borders <\/em>was premiered at ISSTA 2020: Sonic Practice Now (online), August 14th, 2020<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microterritories: Lost and Found Borders&nbsp;(2020): electronic\/electroacoustic Presented at ISSTA 2020: Sonic Practice Now (online), 14th August 2020 Microterritories: Lost and Found Borders\u00a0is a microtonal drone piece for modular synthesisers, a software microtonal synthesiser creating higher intervals from the harmonic series, and a brief soundscape element.\u00a0 The title plays on the idea of microtonality (the use &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/?page_id=2299\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Microterritories: Lost and Found Borders (2020)&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2299"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2299"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2299\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2304,"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2299\/revisions\/2304"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/brianbridges.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
