Last spotted editing and reworking tour material from 2023 on this year's dynamic Drag City-released album 'Pareidolia', Jim O'Rourke and Eiko Ishibashi apply their bespoke processes to the work of Polish composer, teacher and music theorist Włodzimierz Kotoński for this special performance. One of Poland's most radical 20th century musicians, Kotoński pioneered tape music, live electronic performance, synthesized music and computer music, lecturing in composition and electroacoustic techniques at home and across the world. He was responsible for Poland's first piece of electronic music, 1959's 'Etiuda na jedno uderzenie w talerz', and assembled a broad catalog of experimentations, penning the authoritative manual of electronic instrumentation 'Muzyka elektroniczna' in 1989.
