Salvage by Brian Gawlik
Salvage contains four selected recordings captured in 2024 — Live, improvised takes, captured digitally.
For me, 2024 was a year full of exploration and maturation in the Max/MSP environment. In particular, my effort was focused on building live sets that could be taken to the stage. With these sets, I wanted to create music that was as a full as a score, but also as improvisational and expressive as an instrument, using only my laptop and the interactive algorithms that I had coded. I built countless sets in that year, and hit the record button a dozen or so times.
These four recordings — which are, at times, rough around the edges — stood out. They capture what I was trying to achieve during that period of time — both in terms of technical achievement and sound.
In these tracks, you will hear loneliness, longing, and despair — a snapshot of my emotional state throughout my first year in New York.
