Framework – i8u – my favorite things (Installment #3)

As mentioned in earlier installments, my interpretation of field recording based work is very broad, however, the thread I like to follow is to find artists who have mastered their unique identity through the music of sound.

For the next two editions of “my favorite things”, i will focus on a particular label based in Vienna. The label is nvo, non visual objects and it was founded in 2005 by Heribert Friedl and Raphael Moser. In 2007, nvo released : Extract, Portraits of Soundartists, a book and 2 cd’s.
The next hour will be devoted to the 1st cd’s issued as well as excerpts from the book.

Extract -Portraits of Soundartists nvo 011 (2007)

Introduction

Since we started the label Nonvisualobjects two years ago, many collaborations with artists worldwide have arisen, a large, growing network has evolved and an extensive body of work has been formed that we would like to explore and try to sum up. The book developed from the idea of presenting an extract of artists involved in the current experimental electro-acoustic music scene, often following a rather reduced approach in their work. We would like to present artists that work in different areas in this field of electro-acoustic music, to cover a large spectrum even in this quite specific area.

With essays, interviews, photos, drawings and other materials presented in this book, we try to look at the motivation and intention behind the sound production from different perspectives, to possibly allow for a new/extended approach to this form of music. Many of the artists involved in this project do not exclusively work with sound, but also in other artistic disciplines. In this book we would like to present these other sides of their work to allow crossreferences/crosslinks to open up new aspects of the music.

The chapters consist of collage-like contributions. Images and text should not necessarily be regarded as complete units, but are open to various possibilites of interpretation.

It was not our intention to present a discourse in theories of art and music. It was also not our wish to present a curated work on a specific topic. Instead we wanted to show very personal portraits created by the artists themselves, which describe their way of working, the methodology of their sound production and which also portray the artist’s physical and not only their intellectual environment – where one lives, things of everyday life, things of interest and inspiration.

In the fast moving times of the digital era, it was also our wish to, at least partly, hold on to an analogue medium. Should the inevitable decay of digitally stored media ever lead to the disappearance of much of contemporary art and culture, the possibility to refer to this book would still remain.

Montreal 01.21.2010 – The Calendar Project

Crystal House excerpt from January ,The Calendar Project

Credits : Crystal House

Creation: Tedi Tafel
Dancer: Bill Coleman
Lighting: Yan Lee Chan
Sound: i8u

January 21-22-23.10

The Calendar Project: A year-long, site-specific performance series created by Tedi Tafel

Calendar is a year-long, in situ performance series starting in January 2010 comprised of 12 events – one a month for the entire year. The series draws its inspiration from the seasonal shifts and cycles of the natural world. Each event is closely tied to the time of year in which it will be presented. Calendar takes a variety of forms from the discrete to the elaborate, and will be shown in a diverse array of spaces in Montreal including an industrial warehouse, a backyard garden and an alleyway.

Events vary in length lasting anywhere from mere minutes to several hours occurring at different times of the day. All events are free. calendarproject.ca will be updated and disseminated monthly announcing future events and documenting past ones through images, text and sound.

WHEN: . . . . . January 21-23 between 6 and 9 p.m.
WHERE: . . . . . Espace Jean Brillant
661 Rose de Lima
Montreal, Quebec
Canada
(near metro Lionel Groulx)


January

we enter this wintery space and are stilled
a time of no time, of shadow, hibernation, dream and memory
life is underground, slowed right down
images emerge out of the cold, at times only barely perceptible and light reaches through the darkness

(Tedi Tafel)

This collaborative performance takes the form of a moving installation blending dance, sound, light and video projections. The work will be shown for 3 hours. The public is invited to come and go as they please and to move around the space as they wish. Admission is free.

Tune in!  106.7 FM  http://radiojeantalon.wordpress.com/

Presented by the Montréal-based organization Silophone.
Curator: Emmanuel Madan
Independent curatorial project for a series of audio web based and radio
broadcasts

Reacting to a radio culture which accustoms us to the division of time
into a grid of discontinuous slices, Simulcast proposes a renewal of
radio’s relationship with eternity. Four artists are asked to provide an
unchanging sound or soundscape. Each artist’s work is broadcast
continuously over seven consecutive nights.

By bathing listeners in an event which remains unitary for a period of
many hours, Simulcast suggests a simultaneity between all moments of a
broadcast: a collapsing of long periods of time into a single instant.

Prosody:

A collaborative performance by Bubblyfish and i8u. Prosody comes from linguistics, the patterns of stress, rhythm and intonation of connected speech. It may reflect various features of the speaker, be it utterance or an emotional state, that may not be encoded by grammar or choice of vocabulary. This performance proposes the idea of prosody in an experimental improvisational musical form.

Announcing the U.S Premiere of ((audience)), an international festival of
5.1 surround sound art presented in movie theaters as “cinema in the dark”

U.S. Premiere of ((audience))
Thursday, September 17 – Sunday, September 27, 2009
Red House Arts Center, Syracuse, NY

NEW YORK – Curators Alexis Bhagat and Lauren Rosati announce the U.S.
Premiere of ((audience)) at Red House Arts Center in Syracuse, NY,
launching with a two-week festival of art, experimental media, live music,
a radio program, and featuring works by seven international artists in the
2009 program of ((audience)).

Conceived in 2006, ((audience)) is an unprecedented project that explores
the cinema as a 21st century concert hall. Currently, sound artists must
“perform” what are essentially multi-track recordings, interpreting the
playback of their compositions to account for technical and acoustic
variations in different sites. ((audience)) bypasses this problem by
considering the cinema-hall as a standard technical and acoustic platform
and site.

The centerpiece of ((audience)) is a 2 ½ hour “film” of 5.1 surround sound
works by seven international artists intended for presentation in movie
theaters as “cinema in the dark.” This program will travel to partnering
organizations from Delhi, India to Providence, RI to Montreal, Canada —
accompanied by curatorial lectures, performances and screenings on a
city-by-city basis — through 2010.

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
The inaugural two-week ((audience)) festival features six nights of
programs, each exploring a different perspective on the cinema as concert
hall:

Thursday, September 17 / 5-8pm
SOLO EXHIBITION, OPENING RECEPTION: mudboy, Last Wishes
A kinetic, in-the-dark installation consisting of several light
‘paintings’ opens in the Joan Lukas Rothenberg Gallery at Red House. The
kinetic paintings use handmade optical projectors, LED lights and open
source 8-bit controller technology to produce a constant moving image.

Friday, September 18 / 7pm
LIVE PERFORMANCES: Loud Objects and MV Carbon / Zach Layton
This evening of experimental music at the Red House features the Loud
Objects, performing live 1-bit circuit bending on an overhead projector,
and

((audience)) is a sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts
service organization, and Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Swing Space
program.

In composing “still life”, I  recalled a fascinating experience during a recent stay on the Frioul archipelago, near Marseilles.  While walking and recording sounds for various projects, I noticed a snail on the steps leading to my studio. Everyday I walked up and down those steps; I was constantly excited at the prospect of observing the progress this snail would manage.   It was very cold and it looked to me as if the snail wasn’t moving at all.  My enjoyment of the snail was the surreal concept that I could not observe its immediate progress but was aware of it by gauging how much progress it had made each day.

This project being in line with the minimal aesthetic I am interested in of late, i have decided  to approach the sound of imperceptible change as audio “still life” .

“these are few of my favorite things” (2nd installment)

As i mentioned in the first installment, my interpretation of field recording based works, is very broad however, there is a thread I like to follow, it is to find  artists who have mastered  their unique identity through the music of sound.

I chose to open and close this evening’s program with Mika Vainio’s Behind the Radiators released as part of Touch Sevens series, a 7″ vinyl releases only on Touch Music.

Enjoy!
