Void For Solo Viola And Fixed Electronics

Whispers of Entropy is an exploration of perpetual sonic flux, drawing an analogy between musical tension and the thermodynamic concept of entropy. Much like the atmospheric phenomenon where heated air ascends, cools, and subsequently descends in a continuous cycle, the composition traverses an ever-evolving landscape of sonic energy. The work embodies a state of dynamic instability, where entropy becomes a metaphor for the transformation and dissipation of sonic material. Through the interplay of piano, violin, and cello, the music navigates a spectrum of tension and release, embodying an ‘entropy of sound.   Despite the marked transitions between varying states of energy, the structure of the work remains unified and homogenous, echoing the seamless, interconnected flow of air currents. These transitions, rather than fragmenting the piece, serve to enhance its organic coherence, immersing the listener in an unbroken, cyclical experience of emergence and dissolution.

Mahal

Mahal is conceived as a site specific sound project for Müze Evliyagil. Even though it contains diverse elements such as musical performance and sound installation, it aims to provide the audience with a collective sound experience. Works, that are formed upon a conceptual basis thought out by seven composers, occupy their own spaces  simultaneously in a similar fashion that art objects are placed in a museum. Each work penetrates into the other by interfering with the space of the other. The impossibility of containing sound in a closed space, became a common starting point rather than an obstacle for the project. For a good hour, this collective sound world that penetrates every corner inside and spills outside, aims to add a new layer to the memory that the space has created up to now. Unlike a musical concert, Mahal does not require any ideal position to experience. The impossibility of perceiving sounds of Mahal as a whole, encourages listeners to draw their own individual paths, ultimately offering them a unique and subjective experience.

Flux

Based on the idea behind the Wave Organ, the sound-activated sound sculpture in San Francisco, the simultaneous reflection of the same sound source in multiple spaces forms the sound world Flux. Throughout the work, listeners will have the opportunity to experience a continuous flow between spaces, resulting from the interaction of the composer with the Wave Organ.
