In the darkened folds 
Clouds entwine
Obscured in mist,
A nightmare's grasp,


 a shadowed cloud.

two 45 minute pieces offering total immersion in a new chapter of dp’s field recordings mutations series. with stunning artwork by brandon ballengée, a 12 page booklet elaborating on the mutations idea. packaged in a printed envelope. edition of 100. 

the idea: 

field recordings made in national parks, nature reserves and other non-human habitat, mostly of insects, frogs and other small creatures, often in hot (tropical or desert) climates, are slowed down/time-stretched/pitched 50 - 99 %, some are reversed. no electronic sound sources are used. 

slowed down field recordings play with time-space dimensions. related to the size of most of the creatures recorded, this game arises: ‘how would i hear insects if i were an insect?” this can expand to “how would i hear/perceive the world if i were an insect (amphibian, avian etc)?’. 

since I can't shrink humans I have to blow up animal recordings. the ratio with which I do this is all but scientific, and far from realistic: a human weighing 60 kg and an insect weighing 1 or 2 grams would result in conversion rates of 30'000 to 60'000 %. audio treated that way would be largely inaudible. yet audibility of the treated files is key. but this also isn’t an exercise in rationality. rather, it's an exercise in empathy. 

altering time-space plays with relations and perceptions of size, speed, frequency, light, sound etc. imagine being an ant in a forest. a beetle in a desert. a fish in the ocean. you in relation to the universe. and how that sounds. 

these are starting points. just changing dimensions, suggesting different possible parameters. and trying out different ways of combining them. 

perception changes through immersion - being part of something. 

de-anthropo-centralise.

mutations 6 & 7 xcerpt 3

sound as communication in direct and primal form, a language, a tool of metaphysics, a conscience, a consciousness. works that oppose the omnipresent restriction and reduction of life, to activate primordial shared emotions otherwise hidden under the debris of this crumbling civilisation. inviting rumination, encouraging intervention, endorsing catharsis & environmental e/quality, touching sentience, cleansing. audio de/construction, psycho-acoustics, sound rituals, sonic activism, humanimalism; ritual protest music to heal homo sapiens out of its infancy.

solo works since 1987. 
part of SCHIMPFLUCH-GRUPPE (with Rudolf Eb.er, Joke Lanz, Marc Zeier, Daniel Löwenbrück etc.) since 1991.

projects present and past include OHNE, dead peni, perverts in white shirts, PK, ketsu no ana, fear of god & more;  collaborations with G*Park, Francisco Meirino, Randy Yau, Hiroshi Hasegawa, GX Jupitter-Larsen, Chris Galarreta, Masonna & more; ScHimpfluch Associates label with Rudolf Eb.er etc blablabla
