Rosetta Landing
2015
'Rosetta Landing' is an homage to the European Space Agency's historic launch of the Philae module onto Comet 67P. This piece was completed as the spacecraft landed, and is composed entirely from one live recording of the composer playing a Hammarlund HQ-180A shortwave radio receiver as an instrument, and layered with resynthesized and processed parts made only from the original recording.
