Must visit Berlin and go on that walk ;-)

Inspired by melodies heard in dreams, late-night musings, and hypnagogic half-visions. This EP, especially in its instrumental sections, is an alchemical attempt to capture something numinous, profoundly subtle, and wordless. The sometimes dissonant melodies here represent contrasting angles of liminal space; at once chaotic, yet at the same time harmonious, whispering of some truth between the lines, yet aside from sight or thought. Let the textures take you, journey beyond the walls of 3-dimensional space, see what is within.

ritual1 (demo)

Disorganized schizophrenia, also referred to as hebephrenic schizophrenia or hebephrenia (based on the Greek term for adolescence), was a subtype of schizophrenia previously recognized in the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV).

The DSM-IV included five subtypes of schizophrenia, including disorganized, paranoid, catatonic, undifferentiated, and residual. The subtypes were removed from the current version of the DSM (DSM-5, released in 2013), as it was determined that they were not helpful when treating the disorder.

I (archive + time)
all the sounds are either recorded on the 21st september 2020 or from the archive made or recorded on the 21st september between 2007 and 2019. the arbitrary number of a date serves as an archival organisation and becomes here a structrural method that opposes and modifies the intuitive memory.

II (recordings and ghosts, the dead silence)
the sounds are recorded on a walk between bethaniendamm and urbanhafen alongside the former luisenstaetischer kanal. all the recordings of that walk are either a.) traces of em-signals or b.) resonating objects (hit or bowed) found along the way (so that the listener can follow the traces of the objects during the walk).
the recording itself happened during a monday night around 3 am. in the dead silence of the night. walking around with an em-detector and hitting on things like hunting or summoning ghosts: the sounds stand out against small noises of sleeping swans, startled residents or coincidental droping seeds from trees. so listening in this regard becomes more than listening to the sound itself. the decay of each sound is looking into the nothingness of silence.
the metaphor dead-silence refers to the non-availabilty (unverfügbarkeit) of the dead that slip away into nothingness. only memories hold a connection to the gone, to the past that otherwise would be nothing, silence. a decaying sound in the dead silence of the night thus becomes a sort of bridge, channel, vehicle to the dead (silence).
while for husserl the melody is an example of the process of retention, where we are able to recollect a certain amount of signals even without activly memorizing them, the musical structure at play in this piece works with layering parallels of single events that in confrontation become a (more or less) organized structure (dub and overdubbing).

III (luisenstädtischer kanal)
the luisenstädtischer kanal (1852) connected the spree and the landwehrkanal. mainly used for the construction of the densly populated area luisenstadt, it was filled with earth from the construction of the u8 to be reebuild as a public park in 1926 (as reconstructed today). after the second worldwar it was filled further with trümmer (debris) of the bombings and became 1961 part of the mauer, the border between east and west-berlin, the so called todesstreifen (death-strip).
