CRAIG SCOTT'S LOBOTOMY
SOLO GUITAR DUO
November 2019
2 guitars , 8 speakers & 4 amplifiers midi automated with mains relays
No. 1
No. 2
No. 3
As a professional performing guitarist this work is a reflection on how digital technology has transformed the role of the instrumental performer in modern music making.
The thumps of the guitar amps being turned on and off create a cyclical rhythm while the guitar adds harmonic and melodic accompaniment as it sits on the threshold of self oscillation between the 4 output sources.
The result is an exposition of the dualism of the strict repetition of digital automation and organic growth of the acoustic feedback loops.
