Masters of Sound Collage and Juxtaposition 

Negativland is an American experimental music band which originated in the San Francisco Bay Area in the late 1970s. Negativland has released a number of albums ranging from pure sound collage to more musical expositions. These have mostly been released on their own label, Seeland Records. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, they produced several recordings for SST Records, most notably Escape from Noise, Helter Stupid and U2. Negativland were sued by the band U2's record label, Island Records, and by SST Records, which brought them widespread publicity and notoriety. The band is also part of the Church of the SubGenius parody religion.

Through the Pure Data programming environment an autonomous algorithmic instrument (patch) was created which is simultaneously open to external sound interactions. At its core is a noise oscillator that is passed through a band-pass filter to simulate water droplets. The installation is based on two wireless speakers and two wireless microphones in the basement of the source.  More:  ichorous
