Francesco Diodati Yellow Squeeds - Irrational Numbers

ÂKÂSHA, for string chamber orchestra performed by Ensemble Allegria on 18 September, 2020, in Oslo, Norway. Recording by Wolden Lyd.

The meaning of Âkâsha derives from a description that I found in the book Raja-Yoga And Patanjali's Yoga Aphorisms written by Swami Vivekananda in 2012:

“The whole universe was composed of two materials, one of which is called Akasha. It is the omnipresent, all-penetrating existence. Everything that has form, everything that is the result of combination, is evolved out if this Akasha. It is the Akasha that becomes the air, that become the liquids, that becomes the solids; it is the Akasha that becomes the sun, the earth, the moon, the stars the comets; it is the Akasha that becomes the human body, the animal body, the plants, every form that we see, everything that can be sensed, everything that exits; it can not be perceived, it is so subtle that it is beyond all ordinary perception; it can only be seen when it has become gross, has taken from. At the beginning of creation there is only this Akasha. At the end of the cycle the solids, the liquids, and the gases all melt into the Akasha again, and the next creation similarly proceeds out if this Akasha”.

This became a source of inspiration for a new work, exploring continuous interwoven sonic entities of gradually changing timbre based on textile patterns. My intention was to create distinct patterns of timbre, which develop from one noisy material into seven independent timbral layers, later transforming into one monolithic soundscape.

The work is dedicated to Anton Lukoszevieze.
