I'd like to hear more from this astonishing composition which gives me not the feeling of missing continuity like some other contemporary composition.

1 - CAMBIO D PERSPECTIVA

These clips were taken from our "Three Guitars" improvisation recorded on the 24th of September 2021. The title comes from the fact that many of the sounds featured in the jam come from sounds kindly provided by two experimental guitarist/sound designers: Roland Reinke, aka @encym, and Turu Ibe, aka @drunkenforest, from Germany and Japan respectively. Si completed the trio of guitarists with some of his own heavily treated guitars! 

The full jam was aired in the second half of Sonic Soup For the Mind 4, aired on CampFR Radio on 22/10/21.

Text

The ocean, deep blue-green.
What we learn in the middle of the night is that the world makes us flinch. (Michel Serres, The Five Senses: Philosophy of Mingled Bodies)
Sounds an ocean, drinks it in.

Then everything became worse for the wear, damaged, used and used-up and ultimately destroyed.
More and more I made up for what was lost, I slowly improved myself, and I considered myself healed. (Ingeborg Bachmann, Malina)

I found myself trapped in a nightmare, standing alone at the sea. Everyday becoming more and more.
White and yellow and gray and horizonless. (Tove Jansson, The Summer Book)
