Abstract
Compose/Decompose is a live-performed computer music work which exclusively uses sounds from Jonty Harrison's acousmatic piece Pair/Impair from 1978 (Harrison 1996). The work uses machine learning and music information retrieval to organise sounds according to their spectral properties. In this way Compose/Decompose seeks to add value to the acousmatic principle of a discourse guided by intrinsic properties of sounds, and investigate how electroacoustic composition craft can be reconstituted in the context of 21st century technology.
