Iannis Xenakis - Mycenae Alpha, electroacoustic music (1978) By 1977, Iannis Xenakis had developed the UPIC. Unité Polyagogique Informatique du CEMAMu. Put simply, you drew on a tablet linked to a computer, which then produced sounds based on an X (duration) and Y (pitch) axis. In the late 70s, Xenakis’ sounds were limited to pretty raw wave forms being run through custom envelopes, but his work on the UPIC still revealed interesting new ways to think about scoring music. Watch the vid and it will all become clear. Mycenae-Alpha (1978), composed by iannis Xenakis on the UPIC system, presents an example of the relationship between graphic image and sonic structure in electroacoustic music. The graphic score of Mycenae-Alpha provides a basis for an analysis of the work’s form and a guide to its characteristic sonic features.
