MEDIUM is an open drone project started in 1997 by Brent Gutzeit, Doug Lussenhop and Todd Carter
MEDIUM is both the name of the piece and the group performing
MEDIUM’s score is simple:
DRONE
DO NOT DISTURB THE DRONE
DRONEthe mindset is this
everyone is contributing a small piece to a continually evolving drone
to that end, there should be no abrupt changes
fade slowly in from silence / drone / fade slowly out to silence / change / fade slowly in from silence / drone / fade slowly out to silence
think about simplicity in your contribution, you are but one part of a larger drone many may be playing at the same time
both electronic and acoustic instruments are welcome
but please save the harsh noise, distortion pedals, and beat machines for another day
think stillness
think slowness
as minimal as possible
come and go as you please
drone or just listen
