Log InAlbum Description
Broken Chair Surgery is conceived as a single continuous structure, shaped by proportion, restraint, and internal pressure rather than display. The album treats ensemble interaction as a system of negotiated space, where sound enters, withdraws, and reasserts itself according to balance rather than momentum. Materials are placed carefully, allowed to coexist uneasily, and tested through friction and proximity. Nothing functions as ornament. Every gesture exists in relation to the whole.
This work is a conceptual ensemble recording created through human artistic direction and artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is used strictly as a formal analytical and generative instrument to examine pattern, proportion, ensemble behavior, and long form balance. All interpretive judgment, historical framing, and aesthetic authority remain subordinate to human intent and critical awareness. The release is presented as an archival artistic document, not as a literal session, emphasizing structure, risk, and coherence over documentation or narrative.
