COMPOSES
Inhibition Space #3
Program notes
The Sixth Mass Extinction, which we are currently experiencing on Earth, is driven by human-induced feedback loops. One is between human activity and its ecological consequences. Another is within the ecosystem itself, where crossing a tipping point has set into motion an uncontrollable series of events that exponentially feed back into each other.
In the series of compositions called Inhibition Space, instruments are augmented electronically with tiny microphones, its amplified sounds fed into loudspeaker placed just besides them, or transducers placed upon them. This creates a similar situation of (acoustic) feedback, which the musicians can manipulate at best, but never fully control. Opening a key of the instrument even slightly, might have dramatic sonic consequences in this fragile equilibirium. With the help of a digital system however, they can find ways to alter their musical behaviour, habits and reflexes sufficiently to create a symbiosis between the human agent and its sonic environment.
