The title is taken from ‘Lives of a Student,’ a poem from 1946 by Northern Irish poet Padraic Fiacc (1924–2019) from Ruined Pages Selected Poems (The Blacksta Press, 1994). As someone raised in the Catholic faith—as was Fiacc—and now a practising Christian, the idea of a ‘sour morning crimson out of a long lent’ reverber- ates strongly with me. It is di cult to capture in words how one wrestles with aspects of the faith we choose to follow. The poem is, for me, a challenging and often ab- stract allusion to what our faith asks of us, personal struggle and religious doctrine.

Ben Hackbarth presents AudioGuide, a free program for concatenative synthesis that he collaboratively authored with researchers at IRCAM starting in 2011.

Ill speak broadly about concatenative synthesis as a tool, arguing that, while this type of software can be seen as radical, it can also be seen as building off of ideas present in the acoustic composition tradition. Ill go through how the program works technically and highlight certain innovative aspects as well as certain aesthetic choices that we made. Finally, Ill provide several examples which enumerate ways the software can be extended, including writing for instruments (écriture musicale), working with synthesis and real-time processing, and working with film.")
