about

Sound of spaces and spaces from sound. Sound rooms or a situated music?

Shaped from various recordings of installations and spatial works presented over 2019-21 ... however ROOMS is not intended to act as a straight document of these installations. Rather, it explores some of the ideas and methods which emerged from the process, within the space formed by a pair of stereo speakers situated in yet another room.

Recorded audio material is explored as a shifting series of perceivable surfaces, textures and depths; traces of places and actions; points in space; vibration of speaker cone and microphone diaphragm; resonant objects acting as small sounding containers within larger containers; movements of air; a constant shifting set of perspectives; the traces that are left behind; debris gathered up and pawed over. Recorded sound is gathered and understood as partial, fragmentary, incomplete.

"Think of this as a large empty house with many rooms and a lot of debris. You wander through the rubble and dirt and create sounds; until you realize that far away, in different rooms, other people are doing the same. Not in a scary way, for once, but as in a symphony for an empty house." Frans De Waard - Vital Weekly (www.vitalweekly.net/number-1323/)
