Each season has its colors, its flavors, its smell. Every season has also his own sounds. They can be pauses, here and there, in summer or winter. In cities we do not understand when seasons are passing by because we do NOT hear their sounds. I’ m waiting a strong thunderbolt for nearly 40 years now. How can I listen to a fortissimo like a fortissimo, when all the other instruments are playing forte without pause? Now with that coronavirus ‘staying at home’ tell me what percentage of the sky do you see from your windows?
Psychoacoustic CoronaVirus Room
I have, like many others, a tendency to retrieve old files, photos, whatever, probably because of confinement.
As a kind of resistance I decided to reform a room of my house into a psychotherapy room – something between a listening room and a future ICU. I took a video of it and I present it as a proposal for interior architecture. With the belief that, at least, my favorite writer Stanisław Lem would like it.
Psychoelectric Model I
I also decided during CoronaVirus lock down to get involved in the art of making synthesizers. The Psychoelectric Model I is played using a computer mouse. It will be the main sound component of the next series of videos, in which I will collaborate with other musicians and will be announced to you in the near future.
