Szkieve has performed live since 2003 with two to four personal digital assistants. The four PDA's are running different versions of Windows Pocket PC OS loaded with such programs as Pocket Griff and Pocket Clanger Theremin.
DESCRIPTION
"La recherche sonore du Québécois d’origine belge Szkieve est étendue, alliant silences et nappes sonores, errances et envolées lyriques, sons électroniques et synthétiques, le tout agréablement fusionné. Sa performance pour MUTEK 04 fait suite à une série de concerts donnés depuis plus d’un an, utilisant uniquement deux assistants personnels numériques (PDA) ; démontrera la diversité, la versatilité et la richesse des sons produits par les différents logiciels qui équipent ces deux PDA, des séquenceurs, des synthétiseurs et des échantillonneurs. Tous les paramètres et enfilades déclenchés en direct formeront un ensemble complexe de sons microscopiques, de moments mélodiques et de rythmes hypnotiques."
"The sonic spectrum of Quebec artist of Belgian origin Szkieve is vast, allying silences with far-reaching noises, wandering sound waves with lyrical themes, electronic and synthetic sounds. For his MUTEK 2004 performance, Szkieve will be using only two personal digital assistant (PDA) devices; he will demonstrate the diversity, the versatility and the richness of sound produced by the different software installed on these two PDA's the sequencers, the synthesizers and the samplers. All the parameters and the live activated sequences will form a complex ensemble of microcosmic sounds, acute melodic moments and hypnotic rhythms."
