Khyal Geometries is a new project which combines classical, jazz and folk technique on the sitar with improvised live-coding of a digital audio workstation. Modal melodies and choral harmonies on the sitar are combined with synthesis, looping and effects processing mediated in real time by a functional language, resulting in fugues and canons of soundscape which morph from rich and ambient to rhythmic and syncopated.
