Beer Can Crush [disquiet0245]

Taken from 'Delete Beach', Mica Levi’s original soundtrack to an animé by acclaimed artist and Turner prize nominee Phil Collins, released on Demdike Stare’s DDS label. 

Following on from the maverick pop auteur and film composer’s European Film Award-winning score to 'Under The Skin', and her 'Jackie' soundtrack, this is Mica’s first musical accompaniment for animation, by revered designer Marisuke Eguchi, animated by STUDIO4ºC.

Michael Gordon (dj. architech_'s 'The Saddam Remix')

While we cannot see small nanoscopic objects like proteins or other molecules that make up virtually all living matter including our cells, tissues, as well as pathogens such as viruses, our computational algorithm allows us to make its material manifestation audible.  This piece is a musical representation of the amino acid sequence and structure of the spike protein of the pathogen of COVID-19, 2019-nCoV (protein data bank identifier 6VSB [1]). 

MUSICAL DECEIT

A virus’ genome hijacks the host cell’s protein manufacturing machinery, and forces it to replicate the viral genome and produce viral proteins to make new viruses from it.  This musical art teaches us something about the fine line between beauty of life and death as an opposite pole.  As you listen to the protein you will find that the intricate design results in incredibly interesting and actually pleasing, relaxing sounds. This doesn’t really convey the deadly impacts this particularly protein is having on the world. This aspect of the music shows the deceiving nature of the virus, how it hijacks our body to replicate, and hurt us along the way. So, the music is a metaphor for this nature of the virus to deceive the host and exploit it for its own multiplication. 

HOW IT IS DONE: 

What you hear is a multi-layered algorithmic composition featuring both the vibrational spectrum of the entire protein (expressed in sound and rhythmic elements), the sequence and folding of amino acids that compose the virus spike structure, as well as interwoven melodies - forming counterpoint music - reflecting the complex hierarchical intersecting geometry of the protein [2].

Four oscillators are used in this polyphonic drone. Modulations of filters and wave multipliers create floating, changing sound structures. The track is based on a largely generative structure and is therefore not repeatable. I apologize for the occasional interference: it is analogue manual work.

MELOS is a reminiscence of the archaic roots of sound art - produced with analog modular systems. 
The individual recordings with a length of up to eleven minutes are shortened excerpts from potentially unlimited variations of sound and silence, driven by a generative modular concept.
