for these recordings i have worked acoustically with objects in the space of my painting studio, which faces the street, leaving the door wide open. here you have my own performance sounds recorded in real time with a simple microphone and digital recorder, along with the sounds of the neighborhood – cars and airplanes, crickets and birds. because i usually perform with electronics pedals contact mics etc. the recorded for ...'18 performances were much more like ritual actions, using objects and repetitive gestures instead of loops and processed sounds. the performances took place at 6 am in the morning and around midnight at night, when sleep was still in me, or nearly upon me. you can hear the sounds of the building creaking, my voice, pine cones, zithers, acoustic guitar, glockenspiel, bells, metal objects, stones, hands upon unwound cassette tape, toy flutes, harmonicas, whistles, a small tape recorder, a chinese mouth harp, etc. |
