"thrill is the most basic and fundamental of all human emotions, it rewards the very persistence of life on earth. To feel thrilled is to feel alive." - Brendan Walker -


The literary genre of reference of this fanzine is the "commentary": a series of comments or annotations (scholia); Commentàrio - (ant. comentàrio) m. n. [from lat. commentarius (tacit. liber); commentarium, commentaries «thoughts»]. comménto (ant. coménto) m. n. [from lat. commentum, "invention, fiction"; commentus, comminisci "to imagine"; commentaries «comment»]. speech (ant. comentare) v. tr. ["to act with the mind, to reflect", then "to register", der. of mens mentis "mind, memory", with pref. con; cum+mens].


A5 xerographic zine forged into the literary genre of the commentary. A collection of remarks or annotations excerpts from various essays, hints, and recursive reflections to define and re-defining the entire framework of reference, theoretical and methodological assumptions of Black Metal and its origins.

Searching for the roots of the meaning of these two terms, their thought-forms, before they became a music genre. Trying to shed light on the practice of art thus defined "Acousmatic Black Metal", towards a manifesto for a "Non-Aural Black Metal" music.

What we commonly know today as Black Metal, it's just one of the possible forms available.

BECOMING SOUND WORKSHOP – Le Cattedrali tra visibile ed invisibile
un progetto in collaborazione con NUB
26 e 27 Aprile 2014

c/o Studio Corte 17
Via Genova 17/4 – Prato

IL PROGETTO
Becoming sound è un progetto site-specific di sound art che vuole mostrare il processo stesso di creazione di un’opera; dall’indagine fino alla realizzazione. Il progetto si sviluppa su tre steps:

1- una mappatura sonora delle cattedrali della città che ospita il progetto – archiviazione e archeoacustica
2- un’installazione sonora – abitare l’opera
3- una sound-performance realizzata con le sorgenti sonore riprese all’interno delle cattedrali -ri-significazione dei luoghi

METODOLOGIA E PROGRAMMA
I tre steps sono sviluppati attraverso un workshop che prevede moduli teorico-pratici che si svilupperanno nei giorni 26 e 27 Aprile, presso lo spazio NUB a Prato, come segue:
- lezione teorica con i partecipanti (sab 26 h10 – 13);
- soundwalk per la mappatura sonora in location (cattedrali) con i partecipanti (sab 26 e dom 27, h 15 – 18);
- installazione con i partecipanti e performance finale (Alessio Ballerini + Pietro Riparbelli) con i suoni registrati durante la soundwalk (dom 27, h 18 – 21)

2) PRATICA: Soundwalk e registrazioni sonore di cattedrali. Allestimento dell’installazione sonora e visiva. I registratori audio digitali ed ulteriori attrezzature saranno messi a disposizione dei partecipanti.

"Phonology of noise : the voice as sound object"
This meta-event it's based on a live streaming aural transmission of some experimental sound artists involved in the Radical Matters - Editions/Label series. A selection focused on the creative action of recording and/or manipulation of the voice as sound object. A journey which start from classical experiments begun in the late '70, inside currents like Fluxus, sound poetry, and extra-literary vocal sound compositions, towards the researches of the acousmatic's approaches, post-industrial radicalisms, contemporary sound-actionism, electroacoustic ritual researches, psychophonic transcommunication actions, avantgard black metal projections and beyond...

EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE


" ETHER VOYAGE + ( evp trasmission) "
The night before the performance I will lay in a part of the city a recording magnetic tape with no human presence there, ("retrocasuality").
During my performance a friend of mine will send me the nocturnal recorded files, unknowed for me, that I will manipolate with softwares. I will use stringed instruments from western tradition (cello) and eastern tradition like "esraj" together will interact with the rest of the sounds, presences tryng to destabilizing and causing a derangment with the digital dimension. The concert-performance wants to be a search and an evidentiation of the metaphysical sound, of the microsounds and its effects on the human perception and and inspired to the work of: Leif Elggren (Elgaland-Vargaland) C.M. Von Haussvolff Nikola Tesla and Konstantin Raudive.

Zimoun : Sound Sculptures & Installations

Using simple and functional components, Zimoun builds architecturally-minded platforms of sound. Exploring mechanical rhythm and flow in prepared systems, his installations incorporate commonplace industrial objects. In an obsessive display of simple and functional materials, these works articulate a tension between the orderly patterns of Modernism and the chaotic forces of life. Carrying an emotional depth, the acoustic hum of natural phenomena in Zimoun's minimalist constructions effortlessly reverberates.

Zimoun, born in Switzerland in 1977, is a self-taught artist based in Bern. His work has been presented in solo and group shows as well as performances in Europe, North America, Asia, Africa and South America. Zimoun has been awarded different art prizes and residencies
and has served as a guest lecturer.

Recent displays of his work include exhibitions at the Nam June Paik Art Center in Korea; the Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, Taipei; Art Basel; Galerie Denise René Paris; the Ringling Museum of Art, Florida; bitforms gallery New York; Kunsthalle Bern; Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein; the Contemporary Art Museum MNAC Bucharest, among others.

In 2003, Zimoun and graphic designer Marc Beekhuis founded Leerraum [ ] - which has become a platform for creative exchange among artists, designers, architects,... who explore forms and structures based on reductive principles and careful yet radical use of materials.

_______________________________________________

«The sound sculptures and installations of Zimoun are graceful, mechanized works of playful poetry, their structural simplicity opens like an industrial bloom to reveal a complex and intricate series of relationships, an ongoing interplay between the «artificial» and the «organic». It‘s an artistic research of simple and elegant systems to generate and study complex behaviors in sound and motion. Zimoun creates sound pieces from basic components, often using multiples of the same prepared mechanical elements to examine the creation and degeneration of patterns.» Tim Beck

«It is a poetic and humorous absurdity we find in Zimoun’s work, which opens up a wide, refreshing and enriching space for discoveries, associations and a multitude of approaches.» Nina Terry

«The clean, elegant sound sculptures combine visual, sonic, and spatial elements in an organically balanced entirely artwork. Using simple and well- conceived mechanical systems, Zimouns‘s work transforms and activates the space.»
Jury Prix Ars Electronica 2010

«Zimoun creates complex kinetic sound sculptures by arranging industrially produced parts according to seemingly simple rules. Using motors, wires, ventilators, etc.., he creates closed systems that develop their own behavior and rules similarly to artificial creatures. Once running, they are left to themselves and go through an indeterminable process of (de)generation.
These quasi autonomous creatures exist in an absolutely synthetic sphere of lifeless matter. However, within the precise, determinist systems creative categorioes suddenly reappear, such as deviation, refusal and transcience out of which complex patterns of behavior evolve.» Node10

«Zimoun creates more than moving structures; he develops a space where the oeuvre, once it’s set in motion, can create itself.» Oscar Gomez Poviña

«Zimoun is best compared to a watchmaker of a self-reproducing time constructing his own gauging station.» Radjo Monk

«The clean, elegant sound sculptures combine visual, sonic, and spatial elements in an organically balanced entirely artwork. Using simple and well- conceived mechanical systems, Zimouns‘s work transforms and activates the space.» Jury Prix Ars Electronica 2010

«I perceive Zimoun’s work as a unique, playful, light-hearted, and utterly complex approach and examination of the present.» Tom Gray

«The components used in Zimoun’s work are simple, functional and raw, whereas only aesthetically high-level and purposefully chosen elements and materials are used in minimalist fashion. Through radical reduction, Zimoun creates works of art which allow for a plethora of associations without being pinned down to a specific direction. Radical abstraction functions rather like a code in the background of things, thus elegantly avoiding an insinuation of direct, concrete attribution. Thanks to the abundance of mechanical activity, the range of perception, possibilities and interpretations is wide open.» Amanda Neumann

«Observing Zimoun’s work opens connections to nature and natural phenomena, physics, quantum mechanics, complexity, simplicity, vitality, individuality, evolvement and growth, but also to industrialization, robotics, mass production and social phenomena, to space, architecture, cosmic white noise, phantasms and highly enjoyable experiences popping up at any moment. Art is supposed to activate and focus our attention. Zimoun’s work seems to be a sweeping and beautiful example for this.» Anton Richter

«The works convince through their elegant and clever simplicity in an inconspicuously complex setting.» Stephen Braun

«Zimoun’s primary instruments are entirely of his own making, each a large-scale installation of small mechanical devices — tables lined with whipping little bits of tubing, small sets of fetishistically situated mini- motors. They are architecturally precise and their beauty is forged by that precision. The meticulous engineering of Zimoun’s work is a set- up — not an end unto itself, but a staged step toward its end result, an orderly step enacted so as to let chaos flourish. His chaos takes place in close settings, in carefully defined spaces, in systems as thoroughly considered as a laboratory experiment. And the sound emited by them is not an after effect, or an afterthought. It’s a core principal of his practice.» Marc Weidenbaum

"Non Linearità Musicale" [download .pdf]

Sound in Context is a short documentary exploring the unique practice of sound within the visual arts world. Through conversations with a number of key art institutions/galleries, artists and curators working with sound in the UK, Sound in Context allows practitioners to discuss some of the issues of presenting and exhibiting sound in the gallery and contemporary art domain.

Sound as a medium is time-based and is sensitive to space, perception/experience and environment, and has become intertwined with disciplines of sculpture, architecture, installation, film and media art. The ephemeral, invisible nature of sound poses a number of challenges within cultural practice and presentation. Situated between practices of music and art, sound overflows boundaries of the gallery, disrupts line between stage and audience, moves beyond categorizations, and merges models of economy and culture industry. Sound in Context explores the place and future of sound within an expanded arts milieu, while opening up reflections for sound artists engaging in the art world, and visual artists engaging with sound in their work.

Interviews with:

Seth Cluett (artist), Benedict Drew (artist/curator), Barry Esson (director, Arika), Anne Hilde Neset (deputy editor, The Wire), Hans Ulrich Obrist (co-director, Serpentine Gallery), Mike Stubbs (director, FACT), David Toop (writer/curator), Richard Whitelaw (programme director, Sonic Arts Network)

Produced by: Jonathan Web and Ashley Wong

Sound and Music is an arts organisation that supports innovative practice in contemporary music and sound. From sharing information at our website, to a full programme of live events and commissioned activity, we raise the profile of contemporary music and sound in its cultural context, to build support and audiences for new work in the UK.

http://www.soundandmusic.org

Sound in Context was developed as a web documentary and can be viewed online in a four-part series on the Sound and Music website. A full 30-minute version is also available.
