EP8 - The Ice Edge that Blooms (Live+DJ Hybrid) on Netil Radio 23-1-22

Aboutface is back live on @Netilradio 12pm - 2pm (UK GMT +1) with his bi-montly live + Dj hybrid show ‘An Ocean of Ink in a Single Drop’.  EP 9, is a special collaborative performance called Qachuu Aloom (Seed is Kin), centered around a specially written poem courtesy of @duckett-1 , expertly and tenderly recited by darker. 

“We've always viewed our seed relatives as relatives and kin” - Tsosie-Peña (Santa Clara Pueblo Native American community). As when seeds thrown into a derelict industrial factory, slowly democratises the decaying steel, this episode explores how planting seeds, figuratively and literally, can be an act of resistance and solidarity, geoshaping the cinders of humanity into a new future and showing us cycles are ephemeral and change is inevitable. 

The amazing supporting animations in this artwork called ‘The Elusive Good Egg, are by @miloustella_art ’. Collaboration is key to building hope and new futures.

EP9 An Ocean Of Ink - Qachuu Aloom (seed is kin) Ft Duckett 27-3-22

The final episode of An Ocean of Ink in a Single drop EP10 - 物の哀れ Mono no Aware. Mono no aware describes the feelings of sympathy a person feels upon becoming aware of the fleeting,impermanent nature of life. Mono no aware suggests that impermanence should not just be accepted, but appreciated, often typified by the beauty of the cherry blossom (Sakura); the flower blooms intensely, yet only for a short period of time each year. As the flowers die and the petals fall, cherry blossoms line the streets like a layer of soft, pink snow, and are most beautiful when captured between the precipice of life and death.

We truly appreciate things when we accept they do not last forever.

Join me for live performances with guitar, flute , clarinet and electronics, conceptually selected music and 6 specially selected Matsuo Bashō Haikus, recorded in Japanese and English by Fumika Geary & darker.

ﾐｷﾐｴﾐｵﾑ ﾐｽﾐｵﾑ ﾑｾﾐｻﾐｽﾑ

Aboutface is back live on Netilradio.com to present An Ocean of Ink season 2 episode 1 of – D3stiny: a surreal sonic narrative based on descriptions of dreams from the collective unconscious, using music selections stitched together with creative writing and live improvised music and sound design.  When the word ‘d3stiny’ is written lucidly during a dream, it initiates a pseudo-reality personalised game experience to fulfil the objectives and complete the game. However, the closer the dreamer comes to completing the game, the more they will start to identify the game as their waking reality, causing disruptions, side effects, and the blurring of all unconscious-conscious realities. This game experience is hosted by Dream Creator 17 (dark_e_r). Time to re-enter the manifold! ✨💤✨

AOOI SE2 EP2 Aboutface pres. Pensee Sculpture (French version performed @ Cyrcádia, France 20.05.23)

Music created for the "Cities and Memory" project, using a recording of starlings' murmurations in Otmoor (Oxfordshire) https://citiesandmemory.com/
Moors have always been mysterious places to me. Maybe it is because of its role in Arthur Connan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles, or because of my interest in railways, that made me discover the most remote station in Great Britain, in the middle of Rannoch Moor, Scotland.
Starlings murmurations are a mystery about collective behaviour. Their shapes always catch us by surprise. Their how, why and what are always fascinating. For this piece I have processed the original murmurations recorded in Oatmoor (Oxfordshire), by means of different transformative pipelines. I wanted to create something slightly mysterious, maybe menacing but not so much, as some murmurations and moors can be at times. May the music help listeners see and feel how those flocks become like a single massive entity, not only because they make a shape in the air but because, in this track, they are affected by a kind of transmogrification that turns them into otherworldly creatures. They then move the air, the whole sky fabric, in mysterious ways. Something in the way they move...

For everything there is a first time: making your first track, releasing a first record, and writing a press-sheet for the first time. One a bit more exciting then the other ;))

As words are not so important, and only the music counts, we still wanted to give you a bit more insight into our tracks. So here we go:

‘Seven Changes’ came after reading an article of a teacher of anthroposophy, we believed this suits well for our start as artists. Every Seven Years You Change. Most cells in your body are renewed over a period of time. Does your personality change, too? ARE you the same person now that you were fifteen years ago? In fact, are you the same person you were just seven years ago?

‘Moon Waltz’ started out by messing around with several jazz samples, without having a real intension of making a track with it. After a while it sounded quite nice and eventually it came out as a sort of rhythm that formed the basics of it all. The name 'Moon Waltz' explains the atmosphere that surrounds the track, giving it a moody alienated feeling at some points.. For a track that’s been made almost a year ago, it’s very cool to finally see the light.

If you're still awake after reading this we want to thank Mathias for his great remix and continuous support and for starting all this!

Hope you'll like it and thanks for listening!
