Composer Sean O'Riada (1931-71) built the foundations of Irish art music by extending traditional music via both classical and folk music. Ordnance Survey’s Nomos: O'Riada Reimagined uses compositional processes within the field of Spectral Music, where decisions are often informed by sonographic representations and mathematical analysis of sound spectra. Such music(s) might not be initially apparent to the ear and historically, innovations within acoustics and psychoacoustics have directly informed these musical possibilities. Nomos: O'Riada Reimagined uses technology as a mode of expression and it is hoped that this variation adds to the language of experimental electronic music in Ireland. credits
