Don Paterson - The Scale of Intensity

1) Not felt. Smoke still rises vertically. In sensitive individuals, deja vu, mild amnesia. Sea like a mirror.

2) Detected by persons at rest or favourably placed, i.e. in upper floors, hammocks, cathedrals, etc. Leaves rustle.

3) Light sleepers wake. Glasses chink. Hairpins, paperclips display slight magnetic properties. Irritability. Vibration like passing of light trucks.

4) Small bells ring. Small increase in surface tension and viscosity of certain liquids. Domestic violence. Furniture overturned.

5) Heavy sleepers wake. Public demonstrations. Large flags fly. Vibration like passing of heavy trucks.

6) Large bells ring. Bookburning. Aurora visible in daylight hours. Unprovoked assaults on strangers. Glassware broken. Loose tiles fly from roof.

7) Weak chimneys broken off at roofline. Waves on small ponds, water turbid with mud. Unprovoked assaults on neighbors. Large static charges built up on windows, mirrors, television screens.

8) Perceptible increase in weight of stationary objects: books, cups, pens heavy to lift. Fall of stucco and some masonry. Systemic rape of women and young girls. Sand craters. Cracks in wet ground.

9) Small trees uprooted. Bathwater drains in reverse vortex. Wholesale slaughter of religious and ethnic minorities. Conspicuous cracks in ground. Damage to reservoirs and underground pipelines.

10) Large trees uprooted. Measurable tide in puddles, teacups, etc. Torture and rape of small children. Irreparable damage to foundations. Rails bend. Sand shifts horizontally on beaches.

11) Standing impossible. Widespread self-mutilation. Corposant visible on pylons, lampposts, metal railings. Most bridges destroyed.

12) Damage total. Movement of hour hand perceptible. Large rack masses displaced. Sea white.

transubstantiation II

This profile contains electronic music created by me between 2018 and 2023. For me, it was a period of searching for myself, alternating between illness and recovery, trying to regain control over my life and my work. Many of these pieces are experimental and some of them may seem unfinished and incomplete, which I don't intend to change.

The end of this period, i.e. 2023, is also the date when I graduated composition on the Academy of Music in Poznań. Some of these pieces were works prepared as part of these studies. Most of the material available on this profile has not been published anywhere. The only exception is the album Pleasures of Destruction released on the Antenna non Grata.

These pieces will never be released on any label, will not be updated or improved, and will not be presented publicly. Everything they contain, I irrevocably leave behind.
