q. pls introduce yourself

I'm IRL (a. harvey.) I’m a sound artist and independent scholar based in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal.

q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

This mix was recorded during a late September sunset, in my studio in the Chabanel district. I always record my mixes live, meaning they’re mostly improvised. Generally, I work with a bank of songs I’m feeling and go from there. This one attempts to mimic the last dregs of summer: balmy late night thoughts, old memories bubbling up. 

q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy your mix?

In a quiet, comfortable space. During a slow burn, orange sunset. Maybe close to the earth, close to nature, close to water. 

q. describe a favourite object in your living room…

A candelabra that a brilliant ceramicist/friend [Diane Garcia Ramos] made. It was recently broken by a houseguest, so where it used to hold 3 candles, it now holds 2. It’s a sacred object, I still love it dearly even damaged. 

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

So many! I’m working on a podcast about sound/healing, set to come out in the spring of 2023. Also, two sound installations, another mix for my fav MTL label, a track for a special comp, grad school applications, and an LP. My work brings me so much joy <3

Title: Infinite Source
Artist: Future Perfect (Julia E Dyck and Amanda Harvey)
Year: 2020

HONORABLE MENTION || Future Perfect: Infinite Source

It is undeniable that we are living in uncertain times. For those of us failing - or refusing - to fit the patriarchal, neoliberalist mould we have lost hope in the future. We can see capitalism is not working but we cannot yet envisage an alternative. We discover that the stability we were instructed to obtain whether it be financial, political or ecological, is fleeting, if at all. The resulting anxiety is an instrument of neoliberalism that prevents many of us from being able to raise consciousness of the structural injustices that alienate us.

In a world where security is no longer feasible, the only constant we can rely on is change. Barad teaches us that the world is a dynamic process of intra-activity and materialisation, an ongoing ebb and flow of agency. The Buddhist Law of Impermanence proves that nothing in this world is eternal. Regardless of ones point of reference we can understand that every aspect of life, physical and mental is in flux and perhaps this transience is the only thing we can depend on.

Each month we invite an artist to ruminate on these ideas and create an hour of relief from these anxieties. A temporary suspension of reality, where the listener can speculate on alternate modes of existence that reject hetero- patriarchal systems of oppression.

This month we have invited @syberkid to respond to this concept.
