First performance of the eight channel spatial sound composition
Opening of the twelve-limbed, accessible Space-soundBody |
SONIC LINES N` ROOMS No.7 belongs to the project series SONIC LINES N` ROOMS which combines two different space sound installation-types. These are SpaceSoundObjects which may be walked around with linear constructions of loudspeakers and accessible SpaceSoundBodies with loudspeakers which are placed close to and along the wall where the visitor imagines him/herself in the interior of a sound body, completely surrounded by sound. These SpaceSound objects and bodies can be performed single or combined depending on the respective project. The only raw sound material in SONIC LINES N' ROOMS No.7 is amorphous, animal-natural-calls and sounds as well as heterogeneous everyday noises from the human milieu and environment. However, there are no vocal sounds directly from humans nor are there sound materials produced synthetically in some manner or other, both of these were completely excluded in this electro-acoustic spatial sound composition. The noises and sounds are recorded with the instrumentation of the digital sampler. Delving into the smallest molecular region, the sampler is able to put at the disposal of the sound artist single particles of the inner structure of this noise-sound material for artistic development. With these "abstract machines" - to quote a concept of the French philosophers Deleuze/Guattari - we, so to speak, carried out what we called an "EndoSonoScopy" of the single sound material, in order to take single sound tests (so-called samples or fragment-patterns) from the organic sound webs. Whilst opening themselves up, previously imperceptible inner-polyphonies and harmonic sound-fields of inner resonance spaces now become audible. What occurs is, so to speak, a revealing and exteriorising of the inner intensities of the respective sounds. |
