skewed and such

Skewed and such performs original and ethereal semi-improvisational works for glockenspiel and electronics that focus on real-time exchanges between instrumental and computer performers. The interplay between the performers in real-time allows both Saint and Herriott to explore subtle details within a single sound or musical idea, a concept that is central to their individual careers and has united their work as a duo.

The two have performed together at the 2011 Percussive Arts Society International Conference; Spectrum NYC; University of Wisconsin鈥揥hitewater; MUSE-Fest in Madison, Wisconsin; University of Wisconsin鈥揗ilwaukee; Project Lodge; and Denison鈥檚 Tutti Festival.
