about

What does it mean to 'carve' a sound? 'Tuskarve Roar' attempts to answer that question by creating a musical response to the Lion-man of the Hohlenstein-Stadel, a figurine carved from a Mammoth tusk over 35,000 years ago by prehistoric peoples. Tuskarve Roar utilizes subtractive synthesis to 'chip away' bits of sound from a lion's roar—much like the creators of the figurine chipped away pieces from a tusk to produce the Lion-Man. The tools used to chip away the sound however are not blades or chisels, but rather percussive instruments whose sonic 'imprints' cut away more and more of the lion's roar until it becomes a percussive instrument itself.
