Environmental Practice: Resin Arpeggio

Solo cassette tape + single release
Audiobulb Records, UK | 2025
Commissioned by Gallery 3, Ústí nad Labem House of Arts

Somewhere between the hum of parallel pipes and the inaccessible laboratories of the chemical factory, the dissonant chords of liquids and machinery reverberate endlessly. The space in which these sound patches resonate causes reverberation and interference of multiplied tones. In this dense composition, it is the space itself that performs the sounds, reflecting and playing them back again, as if it were trying to perform an arpeggio. Sometimes these arpeggios merge into a sound mass and emphasize the acoustic pressure of the chemical space.
