LIKE BREATHING
like breathing
Composing keeps me alive and connected to life
Sound
Mime
Spot
Movement
Colour
Written word
Suggest and do not disturb each other
When creating I re-exist
Compose is living music like breathing
AQUIFEROUS
Unsustainable jump
Shoot of penetrating water
Penetrating
In humid smell
of wet ground
Mini-rain conditioned
Moment of ground connection
Bodies penetrating in water’s rings surface
Crackling and thunderous sound
Moment of ground connection
Apex
Fall
Rings
Wind
Moment of ground connection
Aquiferous
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER WORD TO SAY MUSIC
“Music is the celebration of life”
Cecil Taylor
“What kind of biochemistry music our thought produces at the moment we think in the word music?”
Wolf Vostell
“Music is not the sound, is what it is behind the sound and it is reveals across the sound.”
Dumitrescu
“Music is our perception of silence and no-silence.”
Jonh Cage
“Music is our own experience, our thoughts, our wisdom. If we don’t live it, don’t come out from our instrument.”
Charlie Parker
“Like absinth and cannabis, music can also changes consciences.”
Rui Eduardo Paes
“Music consist in percept the vibrations of sound, is a mental activity, but also one sensitive physical actuation, of pleasure extent. Making music is beyond of intellectual talent, although always that demands; in music we think with the body.”
Stockhausen
“Music is a mean to possess things. Like the great poetry that possesses the reality through the words.”
Luciano Berio
“Music is reality and utopia at the same time.”
Marcuse
What is the MUSIC?
“The bells ring, not the sound but the florid.”
Maria Gabriela Llansol
MUSIC – A SPACE OF THOUGHT
Word is sound contained
The emptiness exists, the sound lives in it
Sound is everything that appeals to the hearing
Electronic nature sounds
Sound is scrolled text
The crossing of the emptiness with the sound generates a moment of creation
Sound is the shortest distance between two points
Word is voice
Sound is gesture
Moment of evasion to a reading time
There will be a sound more penetrating that the own words?
“The sound creates the hearing, the hearing does the brain, the brain conceives the men’s existence…”
Maria Gabriela Llansol
ANYTHING ELSE – having as sonic source a live record of one section of cinema, I tried to emphasize the live side of the cinematography comedy, the reactions (laughs) that provoke in the audience and considering the stammering like a natural musical effect.
SOMETHING ELSE – starting with presuppositions of Concrete Musique (Electroacustique French School), something else is an attempt of demonstrating the alchemistic potential that the manipulation of digital audio has, i.e. permits working on a sonic base of anything else and transform it in something else.
SONS-RISOS – is a window of musical smiles, where the musical natural effect of laugh’s modulation (varied inflexions of voice) is explored.
SPECTRUM – VARIATIONS OF PRESSURE AIR, the piece was motivated by the voice-off: “… during the concert isn’t permitted photograph, register images or record sounds…”. Sounds are variations of pressure air. The sound is air and the air is whose breathe it. The air is all of us. It’s absurd to affirm that these variations of pressure air are mine or to prevent registering them in artificial memory’s supports (recording machines).
PERSCRUTATE THE THOUGHT - is a musical analogy drawn not in agreement with a standard musical metrics but according with an inner sense time - a time of thought. Thinking is turn around inside us, is cover corridors, is open and close doors, is up and down stairs, is a gesture of Art or simply a musical speech. The thought send us to occult inner emotional states. Scrutinize the thought is an attempt to open these deep moments charged of emotion and feelings.
A GESTURE OF SOUND - SPRINKLED, is an improvise and random pictorial musical gesture of "sprinkle" with a paintbrush (cursor) the timeline of edition's software with fragments of folders audio (samples) like if I was painting a canvas. When I gave a musical meaning (composition) to the gesture (techniques) I had in mind the dialogs' sounds that populate my cinematography memory.
UNDO - The concept was born of the affective relationship established in contact with the Doepfer A-100 and the analogical techniques summarized in this phrase: "In life and the Doepfer I miss the UNDO function!"
