How can experiences be shaped by the sounds around us? 

For me, it was important to create a sound piece where the sound was alive (acoustic generated). To bring us into the present moment.

I like the phrase from Raul Keller’s solo «What You Hear Is What You Get (Mostly)». We can see the structure and the mechanism, but we can’t see exactly which particles generate the sound, the first source. What’s inside? What makes us vibrate? 

Small particles that form a big sound palette conceptually named, sound mass:

A perceptually homogeneous and dense auditory unit integrating multiple sound events or components while retaining an impression of multiplicity. Although their acoustical correlates may be highly complex, sound masses are perceptually simple because they resist perceptual segregation in one or more parameters. 

The individuality that becomes a whole. 

“The mass is the unit under consideration. The sound mass in movement, and in the dialectic play of opposition, of conjugation, of contrast between the different planes in which these masses diffract.”
