A brief Synopsis of Works

Moved by form and function, Craig Dorety creates functional objects of exquisite workmanship and beauty by utilizing high-tech manufacturing processes and implementation of custom electronics. Craig has developed a completely unique and systemic approach to electronic music creation and performance by building his own instruments and control interfaces. With each new device, a new process of music creation and delivery must be actualized. This iterative transmigration of process and technique adds a new dimension to sound performance in a field oft considered saturated or inharmonious.

The Workbench:
This is where my creations come to life in their final forms.



The Komegatone (Details):
The Komegatone is a MIDI controlled analog Synthesizer built into a suitcase with a nice patina of age.

The Breadman (Details):
The Breadman is an almost complete MIDI controlled analog synthesizer with a unique feature involving a new optical method of control (can't tell you all how it works yet)








The Corina Larks, Extra Mild, Luxatronic Humidaphone:
The Luxatronic Humidaphone is a secret technology home built acidbox inside an antique cigar box. This thing makes some amazingly squelchy noises and, like the Breadman, also contains a proprietary optical system.








The Kromatron (Details):
This CNC machined, clear acrylic MIDI controller is kind of beyond description. It's dynamic in the sense that it can change what it does while it is doing it.

The 1000 Year Egg:
Watch the video for this device. I certainly cannot explain it in textual terms.


















Various Whimsical Laser Cut Light Creations:
Wood, Acrylic, LED's and Lasers!
