Sensitive spot : amplified piano and recordings / by Kate Moore

Work Overview
Sensitive Spot is
about tempo, in particular the slight
variations and gradations of one person's personal perception of
metric timing. Many takes of the same piece are recorded and
overlaid, pinpointing a musical phenomena that would normally be
associated with error - the inability of any human to have an
exact sense of metronomic timing. In this case it is used to
create something that aspires toward beauty resulting in an
intricate tapestry of interwoven rhythmic
patterns.
