Born in 1998, Warsaw-based Julian Płoski has recently been making noise among the Polish experimental scene. Despite only being 21, he can already boast about taking part in various residencies, performing dozens of gigs including one at last year’s edition of UNSOUND, or founding an ever-fluid label 𝑔𝓁𝒶𝓂𝑜𝓊𝓇. Julek’s critically acclaimed debut album "Tesco" saw him shoplifting field recordings while hunting for discount groceries, then genuinely fusing them with bare elements of contemporary club music or IDM into ominous sound collages. Gin&Platonic is now pleased to present Julek Płoski’s sophomore full lenght - śpie.
On this yet another conceptual record he leads the listener through extensive hypnagogia occurring during onset of sleep, with all of its abrupt deflections one may eventually take while attempting to enjoy a quality rest. Constantly balancing on the edge of vague vigilance and shallow slumber, śpie teases us with stream of hypergrotesque sound scenarios often submitted by hints of deeply internal insecurities, projected through the lens of dreamstate’s very own oddity. The retained fragments of past day's experience crawl in uncontrollably and they immediately provoke wicked imagination of rather obscure situations. As the mood flows unpredictably from nightmarish periods of abrasive kick drums to sweet and serene soundscapes, on "śpie" Julek achieves to connect the wicked with the virtuous, as well as the pleasant with the destructive.

“śpie is an album about can’t wake up and waking up and can’t wake up and non-stop waking up and trying not to wake up and trying to wake up again and again.”

shitcloud is dead. I'm on YouTube now

proactively exploiting market positioning models through distinctively procrastinating frictionless collaborations and idea-sharing, monotonectally restoring accurate infrastructures built for interactively creating vertical opportunities towards assertively cultivating raw minerals and scraps of rusted metal, and applying them surgically to the sides of your head, by yourself alone in the dark

i. sense discrimination for particle verbs, particles and simplex verbs (including the base verbs with regard to the chosen particle verbs); 
and
ii. identification of regular meaning shifts and the conditions that trigger the meaning shifts.

Concerning (i), our work is interdisciplinary, combining (A) theoretical considerations about salient meaning components with (B) empirical evidence from psycholinguistic experiments and (C) computational models with a strong focus on distributional information and soft clustering methods to represent and disambiguate contextual ambiguity. 

Concerning (ii), we aim to incorporate the empirical sense properties into computational models that identify regular polysemy regarding PV-BV meaning shifts via analogy. Importantly, we are not only interested in the identification of the meaning shifts per se, but in addition we aim to determine the conditions of the meaning shifts, i.e. the meaning components of the particle verbs and their constituents that trigger the meaning shifts, such as subcategorisation behaviour at the syntax-semantics interface; contextual indicators of abstract vs. concrete contexts; domain information; aspect; etc. As a side-product of meaning shift identification, we will address compositionality: one type of meaning shift is a non-shift with strong PV-BV overlap and a prototypical particle meaning.
