Az Álmok égő tájain-ról a Kecsa azt mondta, hogy semmi különös. Szerintem meg tök jó. Műcsarnok, február 25-ig. Az eMule-on meg is találtam a hangfelvételt, ami Csernobilban készült négy különböző teremben.

SILENCE unfolding in space

The sound of each room was evoked by an elaborate method: Kirkegaard made a recording of 10 minutes and then played the recording back into the room, recording it again. This process was repeated up to ten times. As the layers got denser, each room slowly began to unfold a drone with various overtones.
From a technical point of view, Kirkegaard's "sonic time layering" refers back to Alvin Lucier's work "I am sitting in a room" [1970]. He recorded his voice in a space and repeatedly played this recording back into that same space. In Kirkegaard's work, however, no voice is being projected into the rooms: during the recordings he left the four spaces to wait for whatever might evolve from the silence.
