14 DISPERSION OF SEEDS - Processed 1 (2003)
Composed in March 2003, "The Dispersion Of Seeds" takes its title 
from the recently-discovered natural history work by Henry David 
Thoreau dealing with the mechanism of reforestation and the 
propagation of plant tree species, a ripe metaphor for the 
possibility of positive memes thriving and spreading in a time of 
crass stupidity, fear,  and militarism.  In this recording, the 
16-minute score as performed by the quartet is first presented in an 
acoustic version and then in two versions each representing different 
software processing strategies.    The three versions may be listened 
to separately or serially as one longer composition.
