"The SyndaKit CD was recorded to 16 tracks of DA88 in performance at the Knitting Factory in April 1999 and mixed and mastered at Studio zOaR.
Constructed of 144 composed cores and a set of simple instructions for their manipulation and use, SyndaKit's algorithms are based on the behavior of flocking birds, street gangs, recombinant RNA, and African drum choirs. The result is an ever-shifting rhythmic matrix with unpredictable outbursts of tangential activity. SyndaKit was premiered by Orchestra Carbon in November 1998 and has since been performed by Zeitkratzer in Berlin and by an ensemble of Austrian musicians directed by Sharp at the ORF Radiokulturhaus in Vienna."
