Here's a composition of mine for 4 mobile phones! The performers use the accelerometer/gyroscope to send messages to Max/MSP and play/control sounds.
There's lots of glitchy noise and retro video game synths:

#introduction post: I'm a #contemporaryclassical #composer, premiering works on concert stages since 16 years ago. I'm a #musicwriter mostly for Musicworks magazine (Toronto). I also do indie research on contemporary music+postcoloniality with a published journal article and a forthcoming book chapter.
I'm a #ClassicalMusic #pianist who dabbled into bands. I'm also a #SynthPop #singersongwriter as "Grumpy Kitty Boy." I studied Japanese koto eons ago and have my own instrument.
Let's connect!
Symphonic Monday: "Is symphonic music dead?" and "Is classical music dead?"
No. Both are simply moving away from well-established forms. The third of three contemporary composers –
Donald Joseph Sparr, Jr. (D. J. Sparr) (b. 1975), "Meta444", 7:44 (2016)
Performed by D. J. Sparr on electronics, Brianna Matzke on piano, and Hajnal Kármán Pivnick on violin.
Philip Glass (b. 1937)

@scorefollower shared one of my pieces!
It's for trumpet, trombone, percussion, and MIDI keyboard w/ Max/MSP, and it's got microtonal brass, glitchy noise, and cheesy DX7 sounds
