ON|RUST as it appears here on soundcloud is the first stage of a small project that is actually called O|N|RUST consists of this track, plus a Bandcamp version (January 2024 - supplemented with two short pieces for percussion and electronics) and a 2024 small scale vinyl release. I've built a number of rhythmic sound machines especially for this piece which mainly consists of the hum and interference of electrical equipment supplemented with an electric guitar drone. Mastered by Rupert Clervaux.

"Glassed Skin - A Look Through the Looking-Glass"

As one of the most multifaceted ways to communicate, language is also one of the first steps that brings us closer to the other. And in this way, language resembles skin.
Like our skin, language is our last barrier from the world, and at the same time our first contact with it. 
It can protect us, but can also hurts.
It’s fragile, paradoxical and unexplainable: a glassed protection that allows us to get in touch.

Epilogue. Reindeers
(2024)

The final piece in the Kilpisjärvi Sessions cycle emerges as a distant echo of the landscape itself. During my hikes around the lake, starting from the biological station, I encountered reindeers in the distance. Their presence, only hinted at through faint sounds carried by the wind or glimpses across the landscape, became a quiet epilogue to the cycle.

The electronic track was built by recording snippets of the guitar part from "Geology. Earth Data Collector" on a cassette. A tape player was hacked and controlled by Max/MSP via Arduino. The result was mixed with the reindeers' sounds.

Sound Work By Julie Nymann

Recorded at the Royal Cast Collection in Copenhagen.
The House That Whispers is an interaction with the past through the structural forms of West Indies Pakhus that contains The Royal Cast Collection.

The building plays in several flute-like tones in special weather conditions. In this work you will listen to the raw sounds of the building.
