PHANTOM MELODIES

next
Phantom Melodies is an installation with a number of rotating speakers, each producing a specific stream of sounds. The speakers are placed in a space where the public can walk about freely. The installation is playing in a loop: as a result it is perceived as a constantly shifting sound field. This acoustic field is generated from the rotation and speed alterations in accordance to the sounds and the timeline of the score. The sound is an automated composition from movements in time. The source recordings are field recordings from the Amazonian rain forest, they are (re)constructed as a new spatial, almost palpable reality.

This work includes real-time performances. The performers play with speed and rotation directions. Minimal changes in rotation has a direct impact on the perceived sounds. 
​
Performed in various settings with Fransico Lopez, Julia Eckhardt, Nils Chr. Moe Repstad, Espen Reinertsen, Marcus Schmickler and Stephan Froleyks.
