Artificial Blissful State
For Baritone Saxophone and Electronics

Artificial Blissful State is a commentary on the rise of AI (artificial intelligence) within our daily lives. From voice activated personal assistants on our mobile devices to home assistants, self driving vehicles to online stores tracking our browsing history in an effort to ‘suggest’ things that might be of interest to us based on search terms and past transactions.
Here an aggressive electronic track drives forward, unrelenting, unflinching, a steady pulse against which the saxophone plays their role, sometimes irregular and jarring, pushing against the tide of ‘progress’, sometimes slotting into place with ease, but never stemming the technological flow.
