Tom Mudd makes music with computers. Central themes are the relationships between software and music, software as material, and the histories and cultural lives of synthesis processes. Recent work has revolved around physical models: digital synthesis processes based on physical simulations of acoustic objects and instruments. Brass Cultures (Fancyyyyy) used massed brass synthesis; Guitar Cultures explored the guitar in similar fashion. Previous work, Gutter Synthesis, released on the Entr’acte label, explored similar themes with his own synthesis processes.
