Receiver


Receiver is a multipurpose electroacoustic device intended for use as a musical instrument, divinatory medium, and interface for investigating Electronic Voice Phenomenon. As a project and platform for aural exploration, it is as equally inspired by the creative misuse of consumer electronics as it is by the magical worldview persisting around electromagnetism. Retuning, transistor realignment, general maintenance, and modifications in this spirit are encouraged. The device was created as part of a broader project during a residency at Elsewhere Artist Collaborative, where it remains. Updates on the full endeavor to follow. Thanks to Jessie Martin for these photos.

Dual Condenser Mic Amplifiers

Two high gain amplifiers for two condenser microphones built around the LM741 op-amp IC. One microphone is an unwieldy little electret element. The other is a higher grade condenser element borrowed from its former post as telephone mouth piece. Part of a device made for Elsewhere Artist Collaborative. Probably my most intentionally compact layout to date.

Based on an article and schematic provided by dxarts, with modifications made for optimal gain and selective feedback quality.

Dual Modified WSG/ Plexi Panel


This pair of WSGs has been in frequent transit between the studio and the workbench for the past few months. The machines are housed in a wooden speaker cabinet that a friend picked up off the street. Pots and switches are mounted  on  a Plexiglas top panel. Adding voltage control inputs, cleaning up the layout.
