Here is what I had written earlier about my part in this episode:
The show is centered on the Duluth harbor, and my segment focuses on my recording of sounds in Canal Park and then modifying and composing music with those sounds… I was video-taped and interviewed while playing with some sounds in my studio. The resulting music I used for one of my Sonic Sculptures:

“Overall, [The-Novus-Arcadia's] an immensely enjoyable experience,
and it could well become a piece of electronic art that may
be a required listen in the near future.”

Here’s the fourth Sonic Scultpure of April, 2008:
2008: 53 Sonic Sculptures – 16. April IV [2 min 0 sec, 1.83mb mp3]
This composition was created quite simply. I tuned my TV Tuner on my computer to a station that did not have much of a signal (staic with occasional blurps of voices, etc.). I recorded this sound into Adobe Audition for about 10 minutes, then I sped it up and began sculpting it. I gradually eliminated some of the harshness of the clip by gradually doing more noise reduction as well as adding reverb to smooth the sounds out toward the end.
Thoughts?

Igloo Magazine just posted a new review of the Erratik release The-Novus-Arcadia here: Rewound: Volume 6 by Jericho Maxim. Here is an excerpt:
[The-Novus-Arcadia] is, if nothing else, an urgent record, filled with a sublime, anxious expectation and a rewarding, glorious release in each track. Building up tension through clever drum programming and a heightened sense of atmosphere, each track ups the ante for the album as a whole, while being complete in and of themselves.
Be sure to check out the free music and video downloads from the album: The-Novus-Arcadia
Also, thank you to all those who attended the screening of Footprints and a Flower at the Bearded Child Film Festival. It was a great time!
