About Me

Paul Elwin creates music and soundscapes with laptop and other mechanicals. Humans and machines make the sounds but the human arranges them and distorts them to a finite model. The machine merely stores the sounds for future manipulation, burns compact discs for final compilation and helps arrange lines, dots and colour for graphical presentation. The human is the final representation. A strange situation, but it brings much elation.img src="http://www.triplejunearthed.com/triplejcontent/resource s/unearthed_link_large_solo.gif" alt="Visit me on triple j
