Magic Tits - Trimammaphilia

This work was created to give voice to the so-called Pictish stones, carved stone balls dated from the late Neolithic to possibly as late as the Iron Age, mainly found in Scotland and over 400 in the Aberdeenshire. A wide range of theories have been produced to explain their use or significance, without any gaining wide acceptance. 
In this composition I imagined they would be ritualistic objects, used as keys to gain access to a magical multiverse. The used method is the one I call “sonic movie”: is a linear narration made of scenes and shots. It starts with a call from the dawn of time, throat singing voices open the cloud of time and transport the listener to an ancient daily routine on the banks of a stream and there’s a woman singing (in Celtic - I couldn’t find Pictish singings). Then something happens and the daily routine magically fades: the previous organic and random sounds start to have a rhythmic pattern and the voice is being convoluted into the river. The ritual of the mankind merging with nature is happening and the stones, as keys, start to open different worlds. Then a series of scenes follow one after another, with far voices coming and going, universes open up, at some point evil forces come in and the ritualistic music made with bells and drums block their way into our world. Then everything fades.
The used sound material ranges from field recordings of nature and voices - both convoluted into each other or with other samples, as a throat singing with a spieluhr, or various throat singing voices convoluted with roars of animals, meaning the ritualistic merge between humans and nature - to instruments samples and various kinds of synthesis, all effected in complex ways.
