< Back Simon Chioini (Canadá) - Linking Sound and Place: First Experiments in a Practice of Ecology of Sound Conferencia - Día 5 Descripción | Abstract In the context of the environmental crisis, can we imagine compositional processes committed to fostering better relationships to our environments? This short conference explores sound’s potential as a means of encountering place. The theory will be illustrated through a doctoral research-creation project started at the Université de Montréal in autumn 2022, where first conclusions are drawn from the output of a first public performance. These insights are centred on the importance of craftsmanship, on the participation of other senses than hearing in the musical experience and on the representation of the ritual in a connection to place. While these observations are still partial, they open the way to a better understanding of sound as event and as a link to space in site-specific creations. Simon Chioini Emerging from Montréal’s vibrant community of experimental artists, Simon Chioini creates a hybrid of new music aesthetics and genre-fusing electronic sounds. Through long-form electroacoustic pieces and sharp technoïd productions, his exercises in abstract composition, often tied with club elements, have honest roots drawing from his academic background and a self-driven study of the past decades’ outlier electronic music. He currently pursues his doctoral studies in composition and sound creation at Université de Montréal under the supervision of Professor Myriam Boucher. His research-creation project reflects on different practices of the ecology of sound, with the intention of demonstrating creative processes that can foster a posture of care towards our environments. This complex relation between sound and place follows a situational and relational approach to composition, where sound is used as the primary element of site-specific works.

< Back Brenda Brown (Canadá) - Hearing the Wind Conferencia - Día 4 Descripción | Abstract The video's subject is wind, in particular the wind in the landscapes of Chaco Culture Na6tional Historical Park in New Mexico, and how wind is seen in the people who live in the four corners region of the United States. Sound is a vital component of this portrayal. Brenda Brown (Canadá) Educated as both sculptor and landscape architect, Brenda Brown lives in Winnipeg, Canada, where she teaches Landscape Architecture and Environmental Design at the University of Manitoba. Brown creates “eco-revelatory design”, seeking to reveal landscape phenomena, processes and relationships, often considering how sounds can reveal landscapes and landscapes reveal sounds. Working in the US and Canada, she has created interpretive signage systems, listening trails, sound-video compositions and installations. In Michoacán, working with an ecologist, ornithologist and archaeologist, she designed a hummingbird habitat restoration for Tzintzuntzan along with an accompanying multi-media exhibition for Morelia’s MACAZ and the archaeological site itself. . She’s had residencies at the MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, Ucross, Chaco Culture National Historical Park, and Riding Mountain National Park as well as CMMAS.. Her writing has appeared in Landscape Journal, Landscape Architecture, Landscapes/Paysages, Journal of Landscape Architecture. She is editor of the book, Landscape Fascinations and Provocations: Reading Robert B. Riley (LSU Press).

< Back Richard Festinger (Estados Unidos) - Icarus in Flight Obra Composer Richard Festinger has garnered international recognition for his extensive catalogue of vocal and instrumental compositions. Writing for the Tanglewood Music Festival, Frank J. Oteri describes Festinger’s music as “notable for its combination of propulsive energy with an impeccable sense of poise and balance,” and WQXR Radio in New York has dubbed him “an American master.” Festinger is a professor emeritus of San Francisco State University. He received M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in composition from the University of California, Berkeley, and in 1985 co-founded the acclaimed San Francisco based modern music ensemble Earplay. Festinger’s music is published by C.F. Peters Corp. and Wildcat Canyon Music Press. His works have been recorded for the Naxos, Bridge, CRI, Centaur, and CRS labels. The recipient of numerous major awards and commissions, he has been honored with both the Walter Hinrichsen Award and an Academy Recording Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Icarus in Flight Icarus in Flight In modeling the earth1s changing climate, my new quartet, Icarus in Flight, uses historical data on population growth, carbon emissions and land-use transformation, during the period 1880 projected out to 2080, to control certain aspects of the music. - Population growth controls the average density of musical events over time, increasing, in the worst case, by a factor of 9. In this context, density means the number of musical events in a given time period (if more than one instrument initiates an event at the same time it is still considered one event). - Carbon emissions control the frequency range of the music, from lowest to highest pitch, increasing gradually from a perfect fifth in the middle register to a span of 6.25 octaves, before collapsing to almost nothing. - With respect to land-use , an increase from 13% to 43% of the earth1s land surface devoted to human use (i.e. habitation, agriculture and grazing) is represented by the increasing proportion of music that is played with specialized timbres (tone colors), including mainly pizzicato, tremolo bowing, and bowing close to the bridge (producing a fragile timbre characterized by a greater proportion of high frequency partials). The era of international cooperation on climate change begins circa 1979. If one listens closely one can hear fleeting moments of repose on the interval of a major 3rd marking the dates of international meetings. Icarus in Flight is comprised of three large sections played without pause: the first representing the years 1880 to 1945, when the data are growing slowly; the second from 1945 to 2015 when growth accelerates exponentially; and the third from 2015 to 2080. In the last section, our future, the controlling data alternate between the best and worst case future scenarios (i.e., representative climate pathways 2.6 and 8.5) based on the models developed by the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a scientific body under the auspices of the United Nations. Each year occupies eight seconds of musical time, the entire piece lasting about 27 minutes. The title of my new quartet offers a metaphor for the trajectory of climate change. Imprisoned by King Minos on the isle of Crete, the brilliant Athenian craftsman Daedalus fashioned wings of feathers fixed with wax for himself and his son Icarus, so to escape from the isle by flight. Daedalus warned his son against flight too low or too high, to avoid both the ladening dampness of the sea and the wax-melting heat of the sun. Elated by the thrill of flight, Icarus ignored his father1s admonitions, venturing high into an environment too warm to sustain him.

"Dual 2" for alternative percussion and electronics by Omar Rojas; Percussions: Enrique Nieto 6. "La locandiera Mirandolina" a minisuite by Mario Buzzi Notas de programa: Michal Indrák - Tinkling This piece was written in July 2022 and was inspired by a small experimental musical instrument created by my 9-year-old son at a course for young composers and inventors. The instrument is made of a plastic bottle, short chain and small bells. All the sonic events of the piece were created by sampling and post-processing its possibilities as a kind of recollection stretched in time. The piece was also created as part of testing my new setup of a mobile DAW workflow. I also wanted to test and try out new workflows that would allow me to compose electroacoustic music anywhere and anytime without difficult preparations and technical limitations. Jiří Suchánek : Time.break (2013/2018, 4-channel, 9:17 ) Force applied to a mater causes the rise of internal tension. With increasing intensity and no possibility of relaxation, the situation culminates until the moment of internal integrity collapse. The structure of matter breaks down and with the release of sound energy the new fragments are created. A sound microscopic journey through a series of diverse destructions discovers new worlds emerging from the dust of old ones. The acoustic material used was mainly created during the destruction and disintegration of things, or when tensioning and compressing materials. The studio recordings were then carefully sorted, reassembled and supplemented with a synthetic sound layer. The composition Time.break is not an objective record of all kinds of destruction. It is a sonic representation of cycles of tension, climax, rupture and release. The original composition from 2013 was newly re-composed and mixed into a 4-channel version in 2018. Jan Kavan - A message Composed in July 2022 as a World-premiere for the international festival of contemporary music Visiones Sonoras 18 in Mexico. A Message is a stereo electroacoustic composition inspired by the poem The Waste Land by Thomas Stearns Eliot (1922) but transposed into a post-digital era where the topical wasteland is littered by digital fragments of the civilization. Fragments, polluted by noise and imperfection, analogically to the poem, depict loss of meanings, data, and habitable environment. While the composition reflects upon the current period of uncertainty, it also tries to look into the future with a tiny ray of hope that maybe somewhere in the omnipresent noise a new kind of harmony will be born. Poem fragments were narrated by Kateřina Prášková. Otto Wanke - Fluttering Substance My piece Fluttering Substance deals with short audio excerpts from interviews with the American writer William Burroughs, in which the author describes his Cut-up technique. The internal sonic qualities of the excerpts shape the individual electronic gestures and at the same time they form a tectonic organization that corresponds to the described Cut-up technique. In seeking parallels between the spectral properties of the excerpts and their effects on the formal construction of the piece, my intention was to further develop the technique of the spectral resynthesis. In its classical conception, individual partials of the sound model are assigned to different acoustic instruments, creating a characteristic ambiguity between harmony and timbre. In my conception, however, I used electronic processes such as granular synthesis or waveset distortion to resynthesize the original speech model. While this action results in the loss of the original plasticity of the resynthesis, it also serves as a starting point for the generation of new idiosyncratic material that reflects the original model on the basis of a more abstract spectral correspondence. Subsequently, I linked the resulting resynthesis to vertices (points in 3D space) to create an additional visual plane to these audio processes. Omar Rojas - Dual 2 Esta obra está basada en un ejercicio de instrumentación que suelo hacer con mis alumnos para concientizar acerca de las dificultades de cambio de instrumento para los percusionistas; dicho ejercicio consiste en escribir e interpretar una obra para lo que traigan en sus bolsillos. Años más tarde, el compositor británico Thomas Daish, quien fue uno de mis alumnos, escribiría una serie de piezas para instrumentos no convencionales, razón por la que decidí retomar el concepto de instrumentación aleatoria y dedicarle esta obra. Dual 2, forma parte de un ciclo de obras en el que utilizo grabaciones de campo de la Ciudad de México y de otras localidades en el extranjero, en este caso específico de Weimar (Alemania) y la CDMX; la parte de la percusión de esta versión es interpretada por Enrique Nieto (MX) y es para monedas, una bolsa de galletas, un juego de llaves, una servilleta y una cartera. Mario Buzzi - La locandiera Mirandolina - Minisuite The music for the production was created to mainly Dadaist texts, consisting of interjections, solmizing syllables and the like. The texts were created in collaboration with director Peter Gábor. Each of the main characters is typified by a certain selection of these syllables. A type of music was created, based on the Italian opera traditions and using its mannerisms; recitative technique, melody and rhythm. The singing parts were recorded by the singers of the NDB opera ensemble, and the musical arrangement was supplemented with parts of granular synthesizers, samplers and finally subjected to various transformations in the style of DJs (scratching, fx processing, etc.). The Minisuite is actually a selection from the scenic music for Mirandolina.
