Data Noise
Kasper T. Toeplitz, live electronics, generative video, lights. Myriam Gourfink, stillness. Electronic composition played live by Kasper T. Toeplitz and Myriam Gourfink. Noise and stillness.

Almasty
Solo bass played and composed by Kasper T.

I found this recording on a blank CDr, at home. nothing written on - what is this? Yes, it is me, for sure and it was obviously a composed piece - the structure is quite unusual. I did not touch, edited or mixed it in any way. And not being able to remember what it was, I called it "mystery b…
