Sound Generation Techniques
All electroacoustic music is made with electronic technology. Some electroacoustic compositions make use of sounds not available to typical acoustic instruments, such as those used in a traditional orchestra. The interaction between sounds and the ways they are transfigured over time has been termed "spectromorphology" by the composer Denis Smalley (Smalley 1997).

Famous quotes containing the words sound, generation and/or techniques:
“Midnight has come and the great Christ Church bell
And many a lesser bell sound through the room;
And it is All Souls Night.
And two long glasses brimmed with muscatel
Bubble upon the table. A ghost may come;
For it is a ghosts right....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Every generation revolts against its fathers and makes friends with its grandfathers.”
—Lewis Mumford (18951990)
“The techniques of opening conversation are universal. I knew long ago and rediscovered that the best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost. A man who seeing his mother starving to death on a path kicks her in the stomach to clear the way, will cheerfully devote several hours of his time giving wrong directions to a total stranger who claims to be lost.”
—John Steinbeck (19021968)
