In 2010 Decibel prepared a series of works by American composer Alvin Lucier, performing over 17 works by the composer in Australia and abroad, releasing a CD of 4 works on USA label Pogus in 2013. They have a touring program available of the works.
The works have been approached using Decibel’s score player technologies, and enable live performance of previously pre recorded elements such as sine tones. Papers on the work can be found in Decibel’s book Audible Designs.
