RUPERT #01 WITH INSIDE JOB (ULA LUCIŃSKA, MICHAŁ KNYCHAUS)

The first episode in the series is marked by 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐢 mix by the duo Inside Job (Ula Lucińska, Michał Knychaus) — Rupert’s residents and visual artists from Poznań, Poland. ✦✦✦ In the spirit of dark, ‘artistic sci-fi’ they create sculptural environments that evoke futuristic and post catastrophic scenarios. Their work is atmospheric and consists of elements of graphics, sculpture, textile, sound and other media, all of which serves to create a ‘portal’ to another reality — just like this compilation shared with Palanga Street Radio’s listeners. ✦✦✦ More about Inside Job and their recent ventures can be found online via www.ulalucinska.com & www.michalknychaus.com
🖍️
Rupert — centre for art, residencies and education in conjunction with Palanga Street Radio, presents a new soundscape series entirely conceived by the participants of Rupert’s residency programme. Each time a different mixtape will be released as an extension to the residents’ practice and their interests developed during their stay in Vilnius.

Milan W. - Intact (JJ010 - preview)

Pierre Bastien orchestrates his meccano marionettes on Tinkle Twang ‘n Tootle to form the charming imaginative ensemble that he’s been known for since the late 80s. 

Equal parts composer, inventor, mechanic, and performer - Bastien translates his imagination into instruments and compositions that defy any musical categories. Whether it’s preparing instruments like playing a trumpet underwater or through a kazoo, using belt-driven motors and mechanical components to perform cumbersome yet surprisingly musical operations on traditional instruments and household items, or using a fan to hit the strings of a kundi harp with flowing paper - Bastien’s love for tone, rhythm, noise and harmony is poetically reflected across his quite extensive oeuvre. 

Playful and melancholic, the sound sculptures that Bastien invents and plays with are partly inspired by the work of Raymond Roussel, a visionary French author who at the turn of the 20th century wrote a unique form of literature which inspired and guided artists from the surrealist and pataphysical movement and was declared by Michel Foucault as one of structuralism's founding fathers. On that note, the influence of literature and syntax on Bastien’s work cuts all the way through to the palindromes he uses for his track titles - which, much like his machines, infinitely loop. 

True to it’s adorable title, Tinkle Twang ‘n Tootle is a music box of unfolding whimsical structures, half broken rhythms, detuned harmonies, and fantastical sound collages that evoke a childlike sense of wonder and an urge to explore the spaces in between the sounds.

Tinkle Twang 'n Tootle

Pierre Bastien - Pet Step [from Tinkle Twang 'n Tootle]

It all began eight years ago with a copy of R. Murray Schafer’s The Tuning of the World found in a box in a cabin, deep within the Pacific coast rain forest. This catalyst provoked Scott Gailey to draw inspiration from the sublime environment that surrounds his home on the West Coast of British Columbia. This exact landscape had a profound effect years earlier on a group of composers centred around Schafer and Simon Fraser University, including Hildegard Westerkamp and Barry Truax, who banded together as the World Soundscape Project (WSP). Where the WSP was primarily interested in field recording as sound ecology - documenting, preserving, and archiving a changing landscape - Gailey explores the musicality of field recordings through various synthetic approaches, a way to access the ambiguous emotional content latent in the natural world. There is a subjectivity to Gailey’s work, and in that sense it has more in common with the sensual musique concrète of Luc Ferrari, or even the Fluxus tape works of Henning Christiansen, than with the WSP. Despite having roots in this well of thought, Polysensuality is undeniably modern, finding kinship with contemporary works by Sugai Ken, Visible Cloaks, and Meitei, while also dipping a toe in the sound pool created by Haruomi Hosono and Hiroshi Yoshimura. Gailey has previously explored this palette in his duo You’re Me with Yu Su, but here there is more space, more silence, greater extremes, and in this way it is more personal, like a soliloquy rather than a conversation.

Six-channel sound installation for "hibernatemode" by Su Yu Hsin. Fenko Catalysis Chamber, Taipei, Taiwan, 2019

Project Details: aloisyang.com/hibernatemode
Su Yu Hsin: www.suyuhsin.net

“ But the sleep of a hibernate object would instead be a state of perfect sleep, in which an entity would be real but simply without relation.”

Aiôn is a Hellenistic deity associated with time, ex. season, breath, sleep (dream) etc, even Deleuze describes Cinematic time as aiôn which stretches out to become an intangible past and future, or Chronos (Chr), the ever-present that expresses only the here and now. In Geology, aiôn uses for eternity time which could also refer to four aiôns that make up the earth’s history. Aiôn is defined in Astronomy as Trillion years. Thus, we could say hibernatemode is in aiôn where an entity breaks relation with outside.

Su Yu Hsin composes essay film through philosophical and scientific approach to overlap and juxtaposition image with events, ex. Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011. Australian scientists’ microscopic investigation of antarctic moss reveals atmospheric record of Earth in its layer of cells. She uses found footage, data and facts to visualize relational geographic analysis. Hibernatemode comprised of 2- channel video and six channel sound installation. She collaborates with Sound artist Aloïs Yang to constructed nature in exhibition space.

Hibernatemode(Exhibition Soundscape Excerpt To Stereo)

When the covid-19 pandemic started, in a mixture of distress and concern, it was hard to block out the imagination and its ability to dream up how far things could go. In what feels like a lost tape from a field trip in nuclear fallen-out land, Malvern Brume paints a world seemingly abated. Occasional muffled dictaphone note-taking punctuates caustic interruptions, cryptic utterances, the hollow chime of steel panelling, the movement of 'something' under the gravelly surface. When the journey comes to an end, a crescendo of static noise comes to fore and we hear the splash of water, it becomes apparent that wherever we are is fairly similar to where we are right now.

All sounds recorded in London between April and March 2020 during lockdown. Made using various instruments, devices, field recordings and objects including; a synthesiser, modified violin and penny whistle, balloons, tape recorders, bird whistles, bells, a sampler, gardening tools, E3 dawn chorus and other materials found around the house. Both poems were written in response to walks through Victoria park during lockdown.

All music recorded, mixed & mastered by Malvern Brume.

Cover design by Oliver Barrett.

"...What is it about the telling that provides comfort or consolation? Perhaps it's partly in the curative power of naming, an act that can bring our experience into relief and ward off the depressive forces of nothingness, formlessness, and monstrous plasticity. There are also other forms of telling that are not lexical, and our too-easy separation of sound and speech, music and words, belies the existence of something deeply healing and transformational that grounds and unifies them both." - Sofie Fetokaki  

This music was improvised and recorded on April 31st in the quiet bunker-esque venue, Ausland, just 20 doors down from where I live in Berlin. Additional processes and editing were competed on May 2nd 2020. Special thanks to Cafe Oto, Billy Steiger, Petter Eldh and Sophie Fetokaki for their part in the making of this work.
