Double Exposure Lathe Cutting

Double exposure lathe cutting is a method of record cutting that I developed for Lauren Bon and the Metabolic Studio. The method entails engraving sound into an already cut record, resulting in forcing one groove to hold two different sets of information. The two sets of information within one groove do not live in harmony; they manipulate each other and rearrange each other’s frequency spectrums.

Each track found on this page is a part of a sound experiment I composed while exploring the double exposure technique. The experiment investigated responses of various just intonation intervals to double exposure. The two sets of information within one groove reacted differently depending on the interval present.
