Diffusion: 4DSOUND 10 Years - A Compilation feat. Koenraad Ecker, Edo Van Breemen, Croatian Amor, Alyssa Moxley, IOANN
4DSOUND in Residence
The Diffusion programme consists of listening sessions that feature spatial works specifically arranged for the state-of-the-art 4DSOUND system. For the live performances programme you can visit: https://www.stonenest.org/events
A carefully curated showcase of spatial sound works produced for the 4DSOUND system celebrating its 10th year anniversary. From hyper realistic soundscapes, to uplifting ambient, and dystopic drones. Featuring works by Koenraad Ecker, Edo Van Breemen, Croatian Amor, Alyssa Moxley, and IOANN.
Koenraad Ecker | ... and a spark lit the blaze
This London-based sound sculptor is a composer and a performer who is fascinated by the imaginary spaces created by music. Koenraad Ecker highlights the paradoxical qualities of silence and the never-ending narrative of editing in his work. They play, answer, echo one another. They reverberate, They reflect one another, they sparkle... And she is caught in the labyrinth of their mirrors, imprisoned in the interlacings of their reflections... She turns, mirrored from one to the other... This is the moment when we must become two persons. One-half of me becomes detached from theother: a witness.” (N. Sarraute - “Between Life and Death”)
Edo Van Breemen | States of Matter
Composer and spatial sound designer working in spatial sound. He has scored several documentary films for the National Film Board of Canada, Neon, Netflix,and others. He is a co-founder of Lobe Studio, Vancouver, the first permanentpublic 4DSOUND listening space in North America. States of Matter is a spatial sound piece composed by Edo Van Breemen for the highly-interactive and immersive sculpture Meander, by Philip Beesley. This “immersive testbed” comprises vastly complex geometrical structures, immense flexible lattices with various sensor systems, and a large-scale 4DSOUND system. Edo’s work responds to Meander’s identity: one embedded in the origins of terra, water, atmosphere, electricity and the first life forms to inhabit our planet.
Croatian Amor | untitled
An introspective project by Loke Rahbek, Croatian Amor is a Danish sound artist who now finds themselves in the centre of Scandinavian ambient, experimental,and techno by co-founding Posh Isolation a label and a collective that broke out from the sphere of noise music. A spatial sound work developed at Monom Studios, deeply inspired by the work of Michel Serres “Angels: A Modern Myth” and by the city of Berlin, resulting in a sonic landscape that introspectively explores the hectic pace of modern life, chaos and dystopia.
Alyssa Moxley | Living Memory
Alyssa Moxley is a composer, writer, and curator for sound and music events. Moxley’s work focuses on sound, listening, memory, and environment incorporating field recordings, choreography, interactive sculpture and sonic interventions. Her 4DSOUND piece “Living Memory” is composed of eight sound world scenes utilising field recordings collected over ten years in various continents(2006-2016). The performer directs the entrance and exit of the worlds, retaining certain sound movements, and controlling the speed, direction,duration, and delays of particular sounds. Footsteps over different terrains, voices and vehicles, contract and expand into the space of the performer who carries a spatial sensor. Social situations, music, soundscapes, and abstract sounds of urban and rural environments are woven together in a work that shifts space, blending time periods and localities. Abstract sonic fragments echo through the different worlds emphasising sound as both a spatial and emotional memory, as a medium that transmits time, place, and proprioception.
IOANN | Imagining the Hyperspace
IOANN, was the project of Ivan Sapozhkov, born in Tyumen, Western-Siberia,Russia. Imagining the Hyperspace is a spatial sound piece that presents a series of nine sculptures of each a particular geometrical shape in sound - from very simple ones, such as a line, triangle and square to highly complex ones such as the pentatope and octaplex. The intention of the work is to enable the listener an intuitive, physically embodied experience of complex multidimensional structures and geometrical concepts.
The works featured in this compilation were spatialised at Monom Studios, Berlin, Lobe Studio in Vancouver, and Spatial Sound Institute in Budapest.
