Adlez | for guitar and fixed media (2021)

The idea of this work is from a video game poster behind my work desk which is called Zelda. Every time I have a zoom meeting and observe myself from the camera, I always see the poster showing adleZ instead of Zelda. This work is my first exploration and practice of the music programming language RTcmix, which I used to generate and process sounds. I asked myself to apply as many as possible in timbres and textures. As such, the piece is something of a shapeshifter. The piece was composed in late 2020, when I was moving to Cincinnati at the time. Adlez is 3 minutes in duration.
