audio producer and field recordist. @CamillaHannan

I am a sound recordist/artist/designer currently producing audio-montages and compositions that explore the intersection of architecture, psychoacoustics, social-dynamics and place. My works are constructed primarily from un-mixed and un-edited environmental sound recordings, which I capture using a mixture of straight, extended and oblique recording techniques – probing the various unheard material realities, angles and perspectives of a given sound event, as well as providing a tactile space that has surface, texture and reflection, whereby the listener is sensitised to hearing as if it were touch. Through employing a technologically limited (recording focused) work methodology, I am driven to find inventive recording techniques that re-contextualise my surroundings as well as inspire fresh and idiosyncratic compositional approaches pertinent to the places, situations and events I encounter.
 

New album ‘Can You Hear Me’ out on Flaming Pines on 22 November 2024 attempts to find common ground between a young human and threatened birds in this time of the Anthropocene and recreates the calls of endangered Australian bird species from recordings of the vocalisations of a four-month-old boy, accompanied by a lonesome, wistful autoharp. Previous works ‘Waiting for The Great Reset’ (Flaming Pines, 2020) addresses scale, degradation and renewal; 'Suddenly woken by the sound of stillness' (Flaming Pines, 2017), built from recordings made along the Trans-Siberian Railway; 'Transitions' (3LEAVES, 2015), made from fragments of sound from everyday life; 'Domestic Cinema' (Wood & Wire/New Weird Australia, 2013), composed from recordings of archaic equipment at the Telecommunications Museum in Melbourne, household objects, typewriter and drum kit; and ‘Internal Temporal Order’ (Sensory Projects, 2011), which was made in 24 hours using a standard acoustic drumkit, metallophone, brooms and brushes, and bits and pieces as part of The 24-hour Drawing Project. Also co-founder and drummer of veteran Melbourne instrumental band ‘This is Your Captain Speaking’, who have released 3 internationally acclaimed albums over the last 10 years, toured Europe and the UK, played the Sydney Opera House and signed to Resonant Records (London).

3LEAVES was founded by Ákos Garai in 2009. The label is committed to support artist who have a certain sensitivity towards their environment, research its deeper relationship and clearly presents these permanent or even momentary connections in their field recording based sound art.

We are absolutely listener centered instead of artist centered. We believe and support active listening which goes beyond the common concept and relation to music listening today.

Against the current trends, 3LEAVES stands with physical releases. Carefully designed and delivered them to the listeners, we hope that we can hands something that is joyful and generating positive ideas both locally and globally.
