Involved for years in the world of analog and digital sound synthesis, from modular synthesizers to computer music, Kkempes is at his first solo release with this 3-tracks EP. Three pretty different tracks linked by microtonality researches, glitching sounds and cinematographic soundscapes.

Boat Song

Panopticon Specularities consists of four simultaneous chamber ensembles, of which the unique formal entities are in constant contact with the sonic-temporal images that stem from each other. Referred to as “seeds,” these four micro-formations can be conceived as stand-alone works, activating the structural network of the whole. If played collectively, each seed is to address the spatial positionings that are indicated in the score to interact with the surrounding spatial properties of the concert hall.

This work is an effort to address spatialized subjectivities and to develop a network of technical means designed to create sonic-temporal processings, with close attention given not only to idiomatic instrumental writing, timbral properties, and groupings, but also to the spatial characteristics of acoustic instruments and their relation to space.

This research also addresses corporeality by studying the relationship between body and instrumental design, and how this relationship impacts the spatial characteristics of acoustic instruments, in order to explore how auditory experiences and corporeal responses are generated and shaped within acoustic environments. In doing so, this work aims to offer an aural experience, as well as a sonic poetry emerging from within, through which the space reveals auditory displays as simultaneous spatial happenings.

To address the embodied acoustics of the given performance space, the above-mentioned aspects were formulated directly in response to the concert hall where the premiere took place in Berlin (August 23, 2017), for which I designed a 3D acoustic model of Heimathafen in Berlin. The performance possibilities, whether for its simultaneous or stand-alone formations, are not limited to the Heimathafen, as this work can be performed with alternative spatial positionings that can be provided.
