Context: This piece comes from the sound source of Piano, which
is also constructed by many subtle parts. The title
"Horology" means "Art of designing and constructing
clocks." By using the internal sound of the piano as the
sound material. Like the components in the watch parts,
the original sound is re-edited, designed and transmitted.
The pitch change and particle synthesis techniques
process the sound into small pieces for manipulation, and
the process of design creation and the final product
become the “Horology”.
