Description

The Short Ride in a Fast Machine animation is not just a fantastic concert visual, it is a music education tool that visually explains the internal workings of John Adams’ minimalist orchestral composition. The three music education areas that the animation focuses on are: pulse, ostinato and rhythm. The visual landscape of the Short Ride in a Fast Machine animation was informed and inspired by extensive research carried out by Victor Craven. He incorporates the Hindu Sri Yantra mandala, said to represent the whole of existence. Craven imagines the Sri Yantra coming to life and representing the driving force and source of power for John Adams’ Fast Machine. A second design element, meant to represent the “machine,” is a stylized spaceship influenced by the overall shape of the orchestra and made from the component parts of the orchestral instruments featured in the work. If Craven’s “machine” recalls images of the spaceship from the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind, you are not mistaken.

Pricing and License Info

The prices displayed on the product page include the cost for the multimedia file and a Software Premium for use of the Muséik application.

How It Works:

All of the multimedia titles in the Ion Content Library are played with the Muséik application. We recognize that many of our customers use Muséik just once or twice a year. Instead of charging a flat purchase price or a subscription fee for Muséik, we charge a 10% Software Premium on a per Show File basis. This way you must only pay for the application when you use it. This Software Premium is included in the price of each Show Title.

Your License
