It serves to breakdown our cells and tissues for the bodies return to the earth's organic matrix. From birth to closure we are carriers of its inert state. The recordings of Cathepsin are inspired by the deconstruction of organic matter. The works are based on complex modulation schemes that deconstruct themselves into textural forms writhing and decaying as if they are being reduced to carbon ash. The modulation schemes used include: Intermodulation, which is multiple laying of ring modulation schemes and free running feedback hubs. The concept of Intermodulation was first described by Karlheinz Stockhausen in his work, "Telemusik". Cathepsin was realized and recorded at the Laboratory of Hearing by, Marc McNulty. The tracks were first used as a soundtrack to a live presentation of Aurora Borealis video and test results in the, Physics Department of the University of South Florida, Tampa. Cathepsin, released on CD by Isomorphic Records 7/23/95. Available from: Soleilmoon, Staalplaat, Anomolous, and RRR. Contact: mcnulty@arts.usf.edu
