UnTwelve 2018 composition winner Brian Riordan talks about his fascinating use of piano transducers and just intonation in "Recorded Ruins." Indonesian slendro tunings, human interactions with technology, DIY instrument tricks, and the purpose of notation and microtonality permeate this conversation. Why is real-time processing an essential performance tool for the modern age? How many millions of people saw Mr. Riordan perform in Indonesia? Which two JI notation systems are preferred by modern performers?
