He holds a PhD in music from UNIRIO, wish scholarship from DAAD and did a research internship at UDK-Berlin, has a Master's degree in Music and Technology from UFRJ. Among other schools, he was a basic education teacher at CAp-UFRJ for more than 20 years.

EDBRASS BRASIL is a sound artist, curator and researcher. For two decades he is acting in serveral creative areas, like radio art, performer or composing soundtracks for performing arts; Coordinates the "Low Fi- Creative Processes", a platform for the creation, production and distribution of art, located at Salvador-BA, is responsible for the "Ciclo de Música Contemporânea" (Contemporary Music Cicle), that started it's activities in 2016, projecting and building a artistic exchange network with artists, institutions and producers from Europe, Latin America, United Stated, besides national territory. On his solo or small group exhibitions, utilizes unconventional wind instruments, allied with extended techniques, exploring the possibilities of real time composition, in a research that connects aspects from botanics and it's daily uses in brazilian afro-indigenous traditions.

In this activity, the disassembly of small and manufactured speakers will be carried out for the explanation of their internal functioning, whose decomposition will be later applied in the creation of a collective and international piece. The approach comes from the proposal of the "philosophy of the black box" by Vilem Flusser and his call to artists to enter the bowels of the devices that surrounds us, in order to obtain diverse creative results. The manufactured speakers will be used in the creation of a collective and international sound work. More details will be given in the workshop.

1. Antiestratigráfica :: Beatriz Galhardo (BR)

Antistratigraphic is a study of composition from the sound material present in the undoing of raw clay pieces. The pieces are made from the mold of the heads, elbows and knees of black women, following ancient techniques of ceramic modeling and the making of whistling vases characteristic of the Abya Yala territory. Once made, the pieces are exposed to successive depositions of water on their body. The work's compositional gesture consists of searching, in this experience, for connections between rhythm, earth, resonances, erosion/decomposition, sedimentation and writing. Developed with tutoring by Raquel Stolf at the artist residency of the 2nd Latin American Meeting of Sound Art - SomaRumor, 2021. The virtual exhibition of the process can be accessed on the artist's website and to listen to Antiestratigrafia, access this link.

2. Archivo P.A.I.S :: Nicolas Varchausky (AR)

En colaboración con el Centro de Arte Sonoro (CASo) presentamos el projecto "Archivo P.A.I.S." una colección de grabaciones de voces habladas anónimas, realizadas en espacios públicos y no lugares de ciudades de todo el mundo. Nicolás Varchausky lleva adelante esta iniciativa ininterrumpidamente desde su adolescencia, cuando obtuvo su primer grabador de cassettes. El artista registra, cataloga y analiza documentos sonoros que dan cuenta de versiones callejeras de los discursos económicos, religiosos, institucionales y artísticos de distintas sociedades. A lo largo de su carrera, Varchausky utilizó las grabaciones del Archivo como materiales para componer piezas musicales y obras de arte sonoro.  http://archivopais.org/

3. Balu@rte- Fortaleza sonora e visual online, imersiva e interativa :: Camila Vermelho (BR)

Baluarte é uma palavra da língua portuguesa originária do francês, que significa espaço seguro, fortificação, princípio de base, indivíduo ou grupo de indivíduos que defendem um ideal. Uma fortaleza. Esta proposta artística parte desse princípio, de criação de um espaço, de um ambiente online na plataforma Sansar, onde a idealização de um projeto de poética sonora e visual aconteça dentro de um universo diegético de arte digital. Em outras palavras, um Balu@rte. Além disso, busca-se dialogar com o caráter de resistência desta edição da Residência Artística SomaRumor, problematizando as bases das vivências remotas em tempos pesados e sombrios de sindemia de COVID-19. Um misto de realidade artística virtual e imersiva com jogo, no qual a interação está presente e se faz necessária, feito uma brincadeira. Acesse o trabalho neste link.

4. Brutal :: Fellippe Brandão (BR)

Inspirada pelo movimento arquitetônico brutalista, a escultura procura beleza na simplicidade de seus materiais, desenho e construção, servindo como objeto de controle para um sintetizador FM, igualmente descomplicado e versátil. O trabalho valoriza uma interação intuitiva e funcional entre movimentos e sons, que variam de senoides a espectros complexos. Cimento, canudos biodegradáveis, borracha, epóxi, potenciômetros, sensor ultrassônico, Arduino Nano e SuperCollider.

5. caminhooculto :: Caio Campos

caminhooculto é uma escultura inspirada em um antigo jogo de mesmo nome, que tem como objetivo libertar a maior peça do jogo através da movimentação de quadriláteros de diferentes formatos. A escultura, que foi construída com eletrônicos e plástico reutilizado, foi planejada para manter algumas dessas características mas mudar o objetivo do jogo, que passa a ser gerar padrões visuais com os quadriláteros de forma a acionar processos de síntese e processamento de áudio, com um código desenvolvido em SuperCollider. github.com/cacaiocamp/caminhooculto

6. Canto-fenômeno :: Camila Proto (BR)

Uma série de experimentações vocais dos agentes erosivos que nos acometem. Diferente de um rito-ancestral para invocá-los, interessa fazer da voz agente erosivo, uma vez que o ritmo, a melodia e o próprio som estão em constante agenciamento material do mundo. Aqui se erguem continentes: a voz que vibra e irrompe no ar, lançando-se como espuma estrondosa em direção às rochas, que riscam, tremem, rompem... Então ser-vento, ser-rio, ser-gravidade, ser-mar, para erodir o que estiver de encontro. Acesse os materiais: 1. Partituras para dowload. 2. Webpage do artista.

7. collective-conversation (On Contamination) :: Ricardo Basbaum (BR)          

As conversas coletivas são ações que procuram integrar a escrita do texto e sua emissão sonora, em proximidade com as camadas de discurso que atravessam a obra de arte contemporânea. Sempre em grupo, de forma multivocal, procurando atuar no campo de emissão rítmica da instalação e seus objetos e diagramas, sua dinâmica envolve o constante deslocamento entre fala, escrita e leitura. As vozes são tomadas em sua sonoridade direta, com diferenças de pronúncia, idioma, tonalidade, etc., mas também em termos do que alguém pode ter a dizer ao outro ou ao grupo, a partir dos tópicos que estejam em discussão. Escute o trabalho neste link.

8. Comes in waves :: regalo Exquisito - Leo Alves (BR), Marina Mapurunga (BR), Matías Serrano (CL), Natália Francischini (BR), Urutau (BR) tutorxs: Matt Lewis (UK), Julia Mahrer (Ro/uk)

O grupo Regalo Exquisito se articula com pessoas de diversas partes do mundo sob os signos da conectividade, da ressonância afetiva e da vibração em conjunto. Como mensagens em garrafas lançadas ao mar, “Comes in waves” agrega os trabalhos e proposições desenvolvidos dentro da Residência Artística SomaRumor em um site, dividido entre alguns dos eixos conceituais disparadores do encontro. Como o trabalho audiovisual generativo “Cadáver Exquisito”, uma corrente em que cada integrante oferece um regalo sonoro a um outro, contendo uma gravação de um ambiente acústico de seu local. Oficinas que geraram trabalhos como “Speakers as black boxes”, outra corrente transatlântica, desta vez através de alto-falantes construídos por cada integrante, registrados em audiovisual e marcados em um mapa para escuta. Respostas sonoras individuais a uma partitura de texto chamada “Sentir-Ouvir o silêncio / Sentir-Oír el silencio”. Outras oficinas foram “Tocar com a câmera”, “Escutas Abissais”, “Jogos com palavras” e “Escutar é desenhar uma narrativa?”. Mais detalhes no site: https://regalo-exquisito.com/

10. Cuadernos sonâmbulos:: Amanda Jacometi (BR), Beatriz Galhardo (BR), Lina Marcela Colonia (UY), Raquel Stolf (BR)

cadernos sonoros e/ou insonoros, nem dormidos nem acordados. à procura de estados de parassonia (como coexistências de estágios de consciência), em sonilóquios que se movem. (ou podem ser encontrados, desconhecidos, pressentidos) entre som, escrita, escuta, inscrição e espera. três perguntas duplas geraram o processo de conversas, que por sua vez, moveram o projeto: quando escrevo? onde escrevo? como escrevo? quando escuto? onde escuto? como escuto?

12. DESCONSTRUÇÃO DE ALTO-FALANTES DE FABRICAÇÃO EM MASSA E CRIAÇÃO DE OBRA SONORA COLETIVA :: Matías Serrano (CL)

Proposta em formato de oficina que realizará a desmontagem de alto-falantes pequenos e fabricados para se compreender seu funcionamento interno, cuja decomposição se aplicará na criação de uma obra coletiva internacional. Essa abordagem provém da proposta da "Filosofia da Caixa-Preta" de Vilem Flusser, e de seu chamado para que artistas adentrem as entranhas dos aparatos que lhes rodeam, com o objetivo de obter resultados criativos diversos. Os alto-falantes fabricados serão utilizados na criação de uma obra sonora coletiva e internacional, cujos detalhes serão apresentados na oficina. Para participar inscreva-se neste link.

13. El Filo Errante :: JOSÉ IGNACIO LÓPEZ RAMÍREZ GASTÓN (pe) 

El Filo Errante 2.1 (2021) es una representación electroacústica de la cultura del afilador de cuchillos, parte importante del paisaje sonoro tradicional de la capital de Perú, Lima. El afilador de cuchillos representa una antigua práctica cultural de venta ambulante que normalmente se acompaña del sonido de una llamada de flauta de pan, como frase melódica distintiva y personalizada, que anuncia su presencia en el barrio. En esta pieza unifiqué tres elementos: (1) una nostálgica interpretación y reconfiguración del concepto de Una Lima que se va (José Galves, 1965) agregando el tema de la transformación del paisaje sonoro de la capital, (2) el cambio de paradigma de una economía informal peruana que privilegia los productos comercialmente masificados sobre los servicios de calle, y (3) el papel de la estética, las prácticas y la instrumentación musical en la representación sonora de los contextos culturales.

14. El río solo se escucha cuando lleva agua :: Josué Martínez (MX)

El río solo se escucha cuando lleva agua, es una acción realizada en el río Amatzinac ubicado en Morelos, México. Dicha acción se trata de pequeñas alteraciones en el río con la ayuda de piedras, que gradualmente modifican el caudal. La intensión de este acto es amplificar la sonicidad del flujo del agua y alterar su flujo habitual.

15. Escutar é desenhar uma narrativa? :: Natalia Francischini (BR)

Quando escutamos acionamos “filtros” de significação, os quais podem ter relação com nossas projeções, backgrounds ou gostos. Escutar pode não só ser pode uma prática de alteridade, como também pode ser uma narrativa do corpo, da conexão intuitiva com o ambiente/entorno. O que o desenho tem a ver com tudo isso? O desenho pode ser uma transdução do que ouvimos em nosso corpo, do que ouvimos quando escutamos, do que ouvimos quando pensamos. Seria possível uma real escuta sem filtros? Seria possível desenhar sem narrar um pensamento? Acesse o trabalho neste link.

16. ESCUTAS ABISSAIS :: Urutau Maria Pinto (BR)

Atualmente, menos de 10% do oceano global foi mapeado por tecnologia sonar. Como soam os corpos quando estão fora do mapa? A oficina tem como objetivo realizar um anti-mapeamento onírico entre as participantes, resultando em um momento de encontro de trocas de escutas, práticas corporais imersivas y experiências de improvisação sonora. Para mais informações acesse o site.

17. Espectro Restauración :: Felippe Schultz Mussel (BR)

O filme se constrói a partir de intervenções textuais no espectrograma sonoro de um incêndio no Pantanal brasileiro. A obra se apropria da frase “La naturaleza tiene derecho a la restauración”, trecho da Constituição do Equador de 2008 que, de forma pioneira no mundo, elevou a Natureza (Pacha Mama) a condição de sujeito titular de direitos legais iguais aos dos seres humanos. Escrito sobre a representação das frequências do incêndio, o texto constitucional apaga o fogo restaurando a sonoridade de pássaros, grilos, cigarras, sapos e outros animais gravados no Pantanal, bioma que entre os anos 2018 e 2021 teve mais de 30% de seu território afetado pelas chamas. Acesse o trabalho neste link.

18. FASES LUNARES EN RELACIÓN CON LAS MAREAS - ESCUCHA PROFUNDA :: Paula Elgarrista (AR)

En este trabajo exploro la relación entre el territorio, los cambios naturales del paisaje, su modificación y los distintos escenarios sonoros. A través de caminatas a la deriva en las playas de Camet Norte (Marchiquita) encuentro una relación entre la erosión de los acantilados y los cambios en las mareas que dependen de las fases lunares. Estas variaciones generan diferentes contextos acústicos que, presente en la escucha tomo registros de las 4 fases lunares ( luna nueva, cuarto creciente, llena y cuarto menguante) en pleamar y bajamar. Densidades sonoras, resonancias, y vibraciones en el mar,cuevas y acantilados. Estas grabaciones conforman un paisaje sonoro que será materializado en cassettes como una pieza física que perdura.

19. Feridas abertas :: Nubia Mobo (BR)

O projeto consiste na coleta de dados variados relacionados à mineração no Brasil, englobando diversas camadas de impactos ambientais, socioculturais e econômicos ligados à mesma. Serão utilizados como fontes, sites de notícias, relatórios oficiais, trabalhos acadêmicos, imagens de satélites e documentários. Esses dados serão então analisados e trabalhados das seguintes formas: produzindo imagens derivadas com recortes, manipulação de imagens e desenhos, e trabalhando sonoramente a partir de databending e possíveis sonorizações manuais com sintetizadores e outros instrumentos a partir de padrões que serão estabelecidos no decorrer da pesquisa. Espera-se, ao final, produzir uma obra audiovisual que trate dos impactos negativos causados pelo extrativismo predatório de minerais.

20. Hardcore Care: Experiment #I «Pigeons» :: Anna Farré (UK)

“Experiment #I «Pigeons»” is the first part of a larger series of experiments that explore the idea of care devoted to -commonly - unwanted species. In this case, the artwork, that sits on a virtual space hosted in Mozilla Hubs, holds an heterogeneous visual collection of intra-actions with pigeons. The central piece of the project consists of a video-collage that recorded a sympoietic performance between human-computer-pigeons, where the latter triggered self-enjoyable sounds by eating food or drinking water.

21. Jogos com palavras :: Leo Alves (BR)

Descrição: Jogos de improvisação com a linguagem verbal partindo de textos autorais e poemas, a fim de explorar a interação entre indivíduos orgânicos e tecnológicos. Nessa versão, pessoas e os algoritmos da plataforma Zoom, entendendo, ao modo que Gilbert Simondon coloca em “Do modo de existência de dos objetos técnicos”, o aparato tecnológico como ente, logo, também agindo no resultado sonoro. Jogo do eco – Alguém começa a ler, e, numa sequência pré-determinada, repete-se o que a pessoa imediatamente anterior está falando. Jogo da Babel – utiliza-se um mesmo texto com tradução para diferentes línguas, cada pessoa escolhe uma e todas leem simultaneamente. O andamento e articulação das leituras é variável nos dois jogos, ao improviso das pessoas. Acesse o trabalho neste link.

26. Mapa :: Ana Emerich (BR)

MAPA investiga o campo sonoro, perspectivas conceituais e elementos imagéticos da lista oficial de agrotóxicos disponíveis para uso no Brasil hoje, e vincula-se ao território da arte contemporânea ao compor uma poética de deslocamentos e fabulações críticas. Trabalho com inicio em 2020, cada trecho dedica-se à correspondente letra do alfabeto e articula sonoridades produzidas pela boca, corpos humanos e não humanos, aspectos do cenário político, contextos ambientas e práticas de arquivo.

29. Mixturas :: CASo (ar)

© Suelo Muerto de Tomas Spicolli

El Centro de Arte Sonoro presenta un nuevo podcast sobre el concepto de mixturas. La idea de “mixtura” resulta alusiva e inspiradora para diferentes procesos de la creación sonora, tanto en las obras para instrumentos y electrónica como en la electroacústica, basada en la mezcla y montaje de sonidos pregrabados. Escucharemos músicas de Cecilia Castro, Nicolas Varchausky y Tomás Spicolli, navegando por géneros musicales híbridos que mezclan estilos preexistentes y exploran diferentes relaciones entre lo sintético y lo concreto.

30. Modos de leitura: cifra :: Matheus Abel (br)

Pensando a partir de processos de escrita e da série de trabalhos sobre modos de leitura, passando pela situação de uma espécie de tradução entre palavra, som e desenho-imagem, a investigação proposta articula e atravessa momentos de escrita/leitura/escuta, perfurando-os também pelo interesse crescente do artista em música experimental. Também possuindo certa dimensão performática, é realizada uma espécie de leitura-tradução de textos e escritos fazendo uso de instrumentos musicais, digitando o desenho de letras no braço dos instrumentos, que passam a ser um tipo de máquina de escrever sonora. Utilizam-se guitarra elétrica e contrabaixo preparados, efeitos de modulação e delays. Acesse as imagens  neste link e os áudios neste outro link.

31. O que as pessoas falam quando sabem que estão sendo gravadas :: b-Aluria (Gabriela Nobre - br)

O que as pessoas falam quando estão sendo gravadas é uma peça resultado de alguns meses de residência artística no SomaRumor. Seu título parece uma pergunta, mas não deseja ser uma pergunta. Se o título fosse afirmativo, o que também não é, ele estaria supondo que o que as pessoas falam quando estão sendo gravadas está de alguma forma relacionado a uma pesquisa quase científica, que se propõe a certa exatidão, com testes e suas provas. O que as pessoas falam quando estão sendo gravadas, na verdade, é um trabalho sobre registros textuais, sobre notações e partituras. Principalmente, O que as pessoas falam quando estão sendo gravadas é uma peça de voz, de vozes. Nela, texto e vozes debatem sobre uma partitura previamente enviada às participantes; sobre o quanto uma partitura indica e o quanto ela é burlada por suas participantes. Texto e vozes debatem, ainda, sobre suas relações com o toca fitas que as gravam.

32. Ópera A Queda do Céu :: Tato Taborda (BR)

A ópera A Queda do Céu é um experimento de deslocamento radical na direção da perspectiva do outro, ou da ilusão de que esse deslocamento seja possível. Como esse outro percebe minha chegada sorrateira atrás de sua alma, seu sangue, sua terra? Que imunidade tem contra a fumaça tóxica que emana de minha ganância e como minhas promessas de salvação, conhecimento e progresso soam aos seus ouvidos e lhe afetam a carne? Em um amplo espaço de performance compartilhado por interpretes e público, duas forças com polaridades opostas a partir da cosmologia Ianomami, Xamã e Xawara, duelam pelas almas de três forasteiros, um missionário, um cientista e um político, ora impulsionando-os, ora retendo seu movimento na floresta-labirinto.

33. _pois vejo ouvir vindo no vento :: Amanda Jacometi (BR)

simpatia é uma espécie de ritual, um feitiço, feito popularmente para obter aquilo que se deseja. mas simpatia pode ser, também, um estado sentimental bem semelhante ao amor: é a capacidade de dar atenção aos sentimentos de uma outra pessoa, é um afeto que as une, é atração e reconhecimento. '_pois vejo ouvir vindo no vento' é uma publicação digital repleta de simpatias que buscam, sobretudo, conexão: com a própria história e com a história do outro.

34. Paisagens Imaginárias 1-5 :: Guilherme Farkas (br)

Partindo de manipulação espectral de gravações de campo realizadas em diferentes partes do Brasil, 'Espaços Imaginários 1-5' propõe uma imersão sonora em espaços virtuais. Desvincular e descontextualizar gravações de campo de seu momento original possibilita uma outra relação de presença e pertencimento em que a ideia de representação deixa de ser central. Qual relação possível com um espaço sonoro quando a sensação e a forma do som desestabilizam a hierarquia entre o objeto e a representação? Sapos fantasmas, grilos guturais, cigarras submersas, cavalos voadores e vozes codificadas forjam espaços imaginários. Gravações de campo realizadas em São Francisco Xavier (SP), Petrópolis (RJ), Tocos do Mogi (MG), Paraisópolis (MG) e Aparecida do Norte (SP).

39. Rádio Triangulação :: Fran Favero (br)

Rádio Triangulação é uma proposta para a web que reúne a captura de transmissões radiofônicas ao vivo da tríplice fronteira entre Brasil, Paraguai e Argentina, faixas sonoras pré-gravadas e registros de paisagens sonoras. Partindo de uma investigação acerca da noção de fronteira, o som é abordado em seu potencial de produção de zonas de fricção e transgressão de idiomas e territórios. A navegação pelo site ativa essa área membranosa, um espaço atravessado de negociação em que a fala, a linguagem e outras sonoridades possam ser ressignificadas, lançando linhas que são constantemente criadas e transgredidas durante a visitação.

40. Rádioimaginária :: Guilherme Zanchetta (br), Gustavo Rocha (br), Thiago Franzim (br), Felipe Cretton (br), tutora: Janete El Haouli (BR)

Durante 4 horas e 33 minutos – sem interrupção – ocuparemos a página principal do site SomaRumor com uma radioperformance. Os ouvintes serão convidados a acessar e escutar em seu próprio equipamento as transmissões  das várias emissoras de rádio on line, separadamente ou mescladas. No sistema proposto, rompe-se a hierarquia vertical entre emissor e receptor. Temos assim uma plataforma que convida o ouvinte a percorrer os sons emitidos pelas diferentes emissoras de rádio, conectando livremente um ponto a outro, sem trajetórias fixas. A RadioImaginária estimula uma escuta criativa, criando uma narrativa sonora mista personalizada, resultando em uma obra de arte radiofônica vivenciada em tempo real.

42. Ritornelo :: Julio Santa Cecilia (BR)

A composição é formada através de seis vídeos, seis eventos sonoros, seis histórias e infinitas interpretações. Uma rota onírica e surrealista de paisagens remotas e distintas, mas que de alguma forma coexistem entre si compondo com todo o seu subjetivo, suas jornadas e memórias uma soma de percepções que transcendem o tempo e resgatam novas interpretações e harmonias em conjunto do eterno retorno. O trabalho toma como ponto de partida os ensinamentos do livro Tibetano dos mortos ou o “Bardo Thodol” que significa travessia durante o processo de reencarnação. O som foi sampleado e manipulado do site Freesound e as imagens trabalhadas a partir dos relatos de pessoas que encontraram parentes falecidos registrados pelo banco de dados do Google Street View.

43. rumor :: Luciana Roberto (AR)

construir ciudades, puentes
habitar espacios, continentes.

¿qué se hace cuando ya no se quiere habitar una ciudad?
¿qué se hace cuando tu lugar no suena igual?
¿qué se hace cuando los colores cambian?
cuando el tiempo cambia
cuando el espacio cambia

construí una ciudad, con puentes.
para que puedas habitar este espacio y descubirir tus propios continentes.
quiero que sea un lugar donde quieras estar.
quiero que suene a tu estado mental.
no hay un solo color
no hay un solo tiempo
hay nuevos espacios.

esta ciudad, si vos querés, tiene puentes
si vos queres, tiene contienentes
si vos queres
suena distinto
se ve distinto
y espero, no se sienta igual.

44. Sediment :: Arthur Wilson (UK)

Sediment is a collection of items found on the banks of the River Thames, London. Suspended in clear resin, nails, rocks, stones, glass, clay and sand appear to be held stationary from their motion. Inspired by the life of the Lady Daphne, a Thames Barge which began transporting Portland Cement and China Clay between London and Cornwall in 1923. The cargo she carried and routes she traveled changed continuously throughout her life, but her journey on the River Thames remained steady, up with the rise, down with the fall. The movement of Sediment manipulates the sound of white noise by affecting an audio filter. The sounds generated resemble the sound of wind and waves, exploring the potential harshness they possess, to the softness that they can produce.

46. SomaRumor Playlist:: Rainer Krause (DE/cL)

SomaRumor-Playlist es una exposición on-line de reconfiguraciones de siete instalaciones sonoras “físicas” desarrolladas y montadas entre los años 2005 y 2021, y -al mismo tiempo- una instalación virtual autónoma que conecta diversos espacios virtuales con diferentes funciones como archivo, ejecutor de software y espacio de difusión e interacción. En cada día de la semana, el visitante de esta exposición/instalación se enfrenta a otra obra. Además, los sonidos varían según la hora del día. En SomaRumor-Playlist, la experiencia espacial de la escucha -en una sala real con las instalaciones montadas- está transformada en una escucha por dos canales, a veces a través de alta voces, a veces a través de audífonos. Esta reducción de dimensionalidad espacial del sonido no significa automáticamente una pérdida de experiencia, sino un cambio a otros parámetros. Cada obra requiere una manera singular de escucha: continua, interrumpida, repetida, atenta, sin atención especial o casi imperceptible. La exposición/instalación es una invitación a modificar la forma de escucha, donde el oyente está libre de aceptar o rechazar esta propuesta.  Acceda a la obra a través de este enlace.

47. Somateca impossível :: Thigresa Almeida (BR)

Disparado por uma violência sofrida por mim, Somateca impossível é mais uma performance da série de trabalhos que desenvolvia sob o espectro de: objetos- corpos-cortantes. A palavra corta. A partir de lista de vítimas da LGBTQIA+fobia no Brasil (2014 - 2019), e daquelus que estão nomeades como “vítimas não identificada” / "vítima não identificado”, propus uma leitura ruidosa dessa Somateca biopolítica de corpos impossíveis. A performance sonora ainda traz uma paisagem sonora densa de ruídos e barulhos incompreensíveis de leituras de textos de Paul Preciado - nas vozes de Alexandre Hebert, Gabriela Nobre, Sofia Mussolin e Mônica Coster -, de números (os totais de vítimas de cada ano) e de outros ruídos que me acompanham. Somateca impossível é um trabalho que insurge.

49. speaking thr-o-ugh :: Elif Gülin Soğuksu (tu), Mariana Carvalho (BR), Nirah Pomar (br). Tutora: Laura mello (br/de)

speaking thr-o-ugh is an intervention happening in three different cities in three different continents: Berlin (DE), Florianópolis (BR) and Istanbul (TR). Three female artists, one in every place, go to a predetermined location in public space. Each of them wears a speaker covering her mouth, pointing outwards. The speakers play voices of womxn that answered an open call with the question “what do you want to put out?”. As interfaces, the performers give body to the responses, sounding the collected voices in the different environments.

50. SYNCHRONICITY :: Pierre Engelhard (PE/CH)

SYNCHRONICITY is an art experiment exploring how dancers can synchronise their movements through the simple act of listening. Going through different cycles, two dancers alternatively generate music through their bodies and react to each other's music. How many cycles will it take for the dancers to coordinate their movements without ever seeing the other dancer's dance or listening to their own generated music?

51. (In)comunicaciones aurales: ventanas tecnológicas y la posibilidad de un territorio acústico sudamericano :: Lukas Kühne (DE/UY), Pol Villasuso (UY), Marcello Magdaleno (BR), Pablo Elinbaum (AR)

Se trata básicamente de construir una interfaz que permita unir, mezclar y editar los sonidos provenientes de distintas fuentes/espacios registrados en tiempo real. En base a los objetivos, la interfaz podría se un patch de PD que permita: _ sintetizar el sonido de diferentes fuentes (ej. convolución) _ mezclar las fuentes en tiempo real, o tergiversar las temporalidades (ej. delays) creando sonidos generativos, paisajes sonoros automáticos _ reestructurar los registros sonoros, recombinando sus partes (ej. sampleo), cambiando las velocidades (ej. pitch) _ grabar y registrar “muestras” de los “objetos sonoros” _ producir partituras expost (espectral, acústica, rítmica...), como formas de representación gráfica de la experiencia... quizás Lukas nos pueda prestar el Odeon.

53. Urform Piano (2021) :: Manuel Rocha Iturbide (br)

dedicada a Francoise Barriere. 

A partir de esta idea de la Urform podemos pensar no solo en la forma primordial y arquetípica de cada uno de los sonidos característicos del Piano (Urform nota corta, Urform Acorde, Urform Trino, etc), sino de la idea de Piano Forte en sí, en una forma arquetípica del instrumento global con todo su potencial y posibilidades a partir de estas formas originales y de sus posibles desarrollos y desdoblamientos sónicos. Pensemos en las formas ideales originales en la naturaleza, por ejemplo, en las nervaduras de las hojas de las plantas, que aunque son simpre distintas tienen una Urform en común, un origen que las hace a todas hojas. La búsqueda de esa esencia, de esta Urform holística e ideal del Piano Forte, es el punto de partida que da origen a esta obra, gracias al trabajo fenomenológico de percibir e intuir todas las pequeñas formas originales de los sonidos pianisticos que conforman esta macro Urform, dando salida a una obra de millones de otras obras posibles, pero que se conforma de manera particular gracias a una indagación profunda de las metamorfosis infinitas de las formas de la naturaleza del piano, expresadas de acuerdo a una regla: la realción interna de las formas basadas en un solo arquetipo.

54. VoiceScapes :: Sebastián Chandía Chiappe (CL)

VoiceScapes es un proyecto de reflexión y exploración en torno a las formas de concebir el paisaje sonoro, y las voces que de él pueden emanar. Ocupando ciertos efectos, tomando como material, sonidos de la voz humana como gritos, llantos, sollozos, susurros, risas y otros, se utilizan para re- construir paisajes sonoros de la naturaleza, haciéndonos la pregunta sobre ¿Qué es lo que realmente se escucha? Escuche las obras en este enlace.

voz caminhada :: Lucas Mattos (BR)

O trabalho foi desenvolvido através de caminhadas pelas redondezas da minha casa em Maricá, e também por experimentações vocais com o uso da palavra, envolveu gritos guturais com vozes ruidosas, e também sons de passos nas folhas, de pássaros, sons de água corrente, a ideia era ser uma caminhada acompanhada de voz que cria-se um ambiente sonoro, tanto no sentido da experimentação vocal para criar esse ambiente e com os sons de próprio local e suas potências criativas únicas, tentei com as palavras de alguma maneira criar essa relação voz-espaço-ruído-canto e música. Investiga-se então a ideia de que o mundo canta, e que os passos e os espaços podem ter vocalidades assim o mundo natural passa a ser um mundo musical com tons e cores a serem exploradas.
