2022 – stereo + 6 bluetooth speakers – 30 min

reticências explores FM, noise, repetition, rhythm and randomness. It is an unfinished sentence, a never-ending story, it’s a continuation, a transition in between. It departs from a broken radio that speaks on its own towards the exploration of its patterns and spatial findings. It is noise and texture. It is a sonic drama.

The original radio recording is played “untouched” from the bluetooth speakers and it can be heard here on archive.org. In the main P.A. system… I answer it.
The full performance is available in video thanks to Punctum/Radim Labuda.
The bluetooth speakers are from Synth Library Prague. Thanks to Mary C.

Treatise of a purr is a play in three acts. It starts with curiosity did nothing to the cat, follows with the cat and the glove and ends with a scalded cat, who was said to be afraid of cold water. The scalded cat is the final act, which completes the “treatise of a purr”. In it, the cat returns to face a new element. May fire walk with him.

Although each act can be played autonomously, they depend on one another to formulate its sense. The piece uses a variable arrangement of loudspeakers, in three different sets. It is an exercise of “sound theatre” as a result of “staging sound fiction”.

2014 – front array/back array – 20 min

For it is the second act, it follows the idea of a main character established in “curiosity did nothing to the cat”. However, that character did not follow a logic social context previously, and so it continues. This piece is searching for ways to frame sound, in its specificity and detail, as a sonic scanner willing to find an internal logic in its own fictionality.
The sounds in use are a slightly counter-intuitive of agglomerated sounds and their hermitic same in content and form.

2012 – 7 channels – 12 min

This piece is made for 7 speakers, which are placed under the audience’s seats. This first part is ca. 10 minutes long and it is the beginning of “teatrise of a purr” which lasts ca. 60 minutes and works the idea of sound theater.

2012-15 – 5 channels – 20 min

This piece aims at riding the listener through a walk that should sound both familiar and foreign. The sounds have a strong visual reference, for it is objectively abstract.
This composition started as an attempt to find balance between the idea (the abstraction) and the material itself (the object), thinking of the legitimacy of the former and the possibilities of the latter. It aims at generating different sensibilities in relation to reality and fiction. It is a walk, which starts after its beginning and ends before it is over. It wanders between what is present and what is not, what was been included or not; and how much weight can absence have.

an exercise in the concepts of sound documentary and sound fiction. it aims to be a pleasant journey into this universe of sounds, until one is able to liberate oneself and the sounds from any referential logics.
