About the Album

Alternate take of track ‘4G’ from ‘io 0.0.1 beta++’ (SLAMCD 531) with Han-earl Park (guitar) and the machine improviser io 0.0.1 beta++ (itself). Constructed by Han-earl Park, io 0.0.1 beta++ is a modern-day musical automaton. It is not an instrument to be played but a non-human artificial musician that performs alongside its human counterparts. io 0.0.1 beta++ represents a personal-political investigation of technology, interaction, improvisation and musicality. It whimsically evokes a 1950s B-movie robot—seemingly jerry-rigged, constructed from ad-hoc components including plumbing, kitchenware, speakers and missile switches—celebrating the material and corporeal.
