This composition was develop in the ZKM | Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie Karlsruhe, IMA | Institute for Music & Acoustics, Germany, to be integrated in the Klangdoom, exploring the Zirkonium software possibilities for sound specialization in a 48 channel sound system.
This composition is configured as a formal and conceptual operation, reflecting different dynamic organizations of sound forces and masses that move in different directions. Accentuating the object dynamics that displace large sound masses suspended in the air, in a space of tension. Lines between order and chaos. Manipulating expectations and intentions. Deconstruction of the dynamic tension. Exploring details of reactive actions. With the use of low frequencies that affect the taxation of sound material in the bodies and in its origins, an intentional bias in a physical sensorial level of disorder is created.
Hugo Paquete (1979) is an intermedia and sound artist which in his research uses concepts about space and microtonality as a visual and audible ecosystem according to spatial and psychological characteristics (acoustic, architectonic, sculptural, perspective, communicative, evocative and environmental). The result is an audible interaction, open and indeterminate to the present time scales nano and macro. Territory of hyper-sensation and experimentation, observation and enclose the body in the listening act, turning it active and explored referential and resonator propulsive in a psycho-acoustic level. In his works he uses technical elements and practices from field-recording to computer generated sound synthesis and audio spacialization, denoting an interest in stochastic probabilities between computer algorithmic and programming interaction.
He was a resident artist in the ZKM | Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie Karlsruhe, IMA | Institute for Music & Acoustics. He received a ZKM grant for the development of different compositions, multimedia projects focused in sound spacialization and interaction between sound and psycho-acoustic in multichannel configuring systems and free software uses. He received a commissioned compositional work from Chris Ziegler to develop an interactive composition system for iPhones, integrated in a dance media piece premiered at the ZKM in 2011 with the name “Pygmalionâ€.
He has actively presented his research in solo and collaborative art activities, nationally and internationally. He is developing other project with the name SSTFM and Quadrivium project focus in electroacoustic and acousmatic music.
He collaborated with the Lithuanian Artist Julijonas Urbonas to the development of the sound composition to the Talking Doors project that earned the Prix Ars Electronica of 2010, and a recommendation from the jury of the 14th Japan Media Arts Festival in 2010 and a honorary mention in the Media, Live 2011 Grand Prix in Turku, Finland.
