Name: Bizalom (The Weather Inside) Binaural Sound/Dream/Memory Meditation by LAPKAT
Duration: 28 min

This is the second live version of “Bizalom”, part of a performance for the Space and Sometimes Movement show at MPavilion, February 2019, working with a Yamaha wave-field synthesis sound system. 

“Bizalom” was initially conceptualised with the 4DSOUND system at the Spatial Sound Institute in Budapest (2018), during a period of early experimentation. I was playing with field recordings I’d made of the sea in Greece some time before, exploring the capability of the Budapest studio to create a moving, sounding ocean beneath my feet. I began to incorporate other field recordings from Greece and other travels, creating different weather states and environments to see if the omnidirectional 4DSOUND studio could fully re-immerse me in those memories (it could). 

The work became a sound meditation that I used as a practice of deep listening for myself and whomever came into the studio to listen. The work on this inspired me to think and write about how sound triggers memory of place, which then triggers more emotionally charged memories. 

I added a recording of the artists in the residency playing in a rainstorm that happened during this time. A train journey in Athens with a yappy dog. Street sounds in a Berlin suburb. Someone playing an old piano in a neighbour’s apartment in Paris. All real, fuzzy, moments in time, just moments when I’d thought to press record. I experimented with electronic pulses and suggestions of melody, exploring the emotional and narrative effects of introducing low and high frequencies and synthetic weather effects.

I’ve long been intrigued by the Seikilos epitaph, the oldest surviving complete musical notation; a timeless poetic message of living life. I had a MIDI file of the tune, that inspired another dimension to this work. 

I began to include my own poetic story prompts, inspired by meditations on the word “trust”, which I had ‘received’ as an answer to a question I took to the Delphi oracle years before. I enlisted the voices of other artists in residence, including Petko Ognyanov, Ana Amorós, Kate de Lorme, and Vladimir Razhev, to speak the word for trust in Greek, English, and Hungarian (“bizalom”). Petko also read the inscriptions from the Seikilos epitaph.

Bizalom

Instructions for listening: 

This is binaural audio, which approximates the way we experience sound in daily life. The spatial qualities of binaural sound only works in headphones - any will do, but over-ear headphones are best. 
Before you listen, make your body comfortable in whatever way you like, and put up a “do not disturb” sign on your door and your devices.

Give yourself 28 minutes of uninterrupted listening. Think of it as aural cinema, a short film in your mind, or an active dream. This is an invitation to surrender to your listening sense, to allow the sounds to suggest memories, feelings, textures, temperatures (the weather inside), and to allow your own internal storyteller to tell you your own story.

“Bizalom” was initially conceptualised with the 4DSOUND system at the Spatial Sound Institute in Budapest (2018). I developed it for different live sound systems over following years. I returned to it in residence at Arteles Creative Centre in Finland this year, developing a progressively complex spatial sound work about concepts of trust, creative inspiration, active dreaming, our emotional connection to changing weather patterns and “the weather inside”.

This is a work-in-progress 'sketch' of what will become a longer and more expansive spatial sound installation. This version was made for a listening session at Arteles to share with fellow resident artists. It roughly sketches five 'scenes', calling on five Muses, responding to five environments and memories.

She studied fine arts in London and San Francisco (Chelsea, SFAI), English and Sociology in Paris (Sorbonne) and was initiated to electroacoustic composition and sound design by Hayley Newman, Laétitia Sonami, Christian Zanesi, and Robert Hampson.  
Currently based in Paris, she is the co-founder of projects focusing on experimental music, sound and art and regularly works for sound research organizations such as the GRM, Double Entendre, and the Fair_Play network.

f:p podcast episode 39_Valerie Vivancos

Sylvia Hinz is one of the leading recorder players worldwide, specialized in contemporary music and improvisation. Praised for her equally fierce and bold dramatic performance style. Hinz studied recorder at the University of Arts Berlin with Gerd Luenenbuerger, experimental music with Dieter Schnebel, also chamber music conducting / ensemble leading. Hinz also plays solo recitals, concerts with ensembles and orchestras. 
in the wake of the uprising right-winged oppressors around the world, empowerment of womxn and the aim for equality is becoming more important every second. inspired by feminism, I want to rouse the sleeping and offer solace to the suffering, to make those uneasy who want to keep others in the dark, to praise the resistance, to make it possible for the voice of doubt to sail through the world on the sounds of wind and air.
in loving memory - Genevieve Guay DiSalvo (1974 - 2018) 🖤

So excited about this futuristic out-of-the-box ode to NYC! Three different backgrounds, three perspectives on a city that always is and never was, like a Phoenix, unable to die.
I met Komputer and Sarahfina at https://soundcloud.com/notesfornotes in Flatbush, and it was so amazing to work with them! Have fun listening and get sucked into this bittersweet yet raw vibe of New York.

"New York (Is)"
Sweet, sweet NY
You’re mint to the core
Sweet, sweet NY
You’re crazy for sure
Sweet, sweet NY
Fucked up and worn out
Sweet, sweet NY
What is it about you?



We made a trip up to Fresno
She had to let all of her friends know 
We was recreating the temples
The temples our body’s was meant for
We competent it’s too simple
We do not have time for a wrinkle
Come in for 
Some arguments
Some calm regrets
Some parliament
To let you in my hex
You was in my hex 
I’m not confident
But braggadocio 
No motto of mine
Mo money mo problems
You signed to fables that call themselves labels
You are the hen with the bread on the table
But you got no seat at the table?
Executives countin’ your blessings 
They bleeding you dry
For that tempo

New York how I miss you 
Back when my life was more simple 

She from the Windy City 
I’ve heard they take no pity 
And for her I’m awfully giddy
We smokin’ like some chimneys
Open a window my heart is like a kidney 
It’s an organ a mortgage 
A fortune in a penny
Can you get dressed already?
Today I will be busy
With the pussy you stingy 
Yet you call yourself kinky
How that work?
Preach that, church!
You switchin’ up like Lindsay
I feel hurt 
You do dirt
I knew you took no pity
 

Oh sweet NY
Yeah, you’re so crazy poor
Oh sweet NY
You’re crazy for sure
Sweet, sweet NY
Fucked, you’re so fucking rich
Oh bitter sweet NY

The asphalt is vibrating
Laughing, hating
Acerbated and liberated
And not only the buildings are high
Frantic pace
So many things to do, to lose
Third World country in a First World lobby
Revolving doors are open 
Though they’re broken, oh
Everything’s in motion
In the moment NOW
Beginning and end
You fly like a Phoenix – unable to die

NY, NY, mission abort
Report
Extort, escort
To the higher forts

Yeah, oh sweet NY
You crazy thing
Oh sweet NY
You’re mint to the core
Oh sweet NY
Hey, sweet NY
What is it about you?


Hurry the fuck up and walk

A drive down memory lane, 
Game’s over, control all your pain 
Police siren, an everyday ring 
Sweet matrix with everything 
Like the Phoenix, you must rise again 
Black Gotham, they know all the trends 
Good things always come to an end 
Be careful of who you befriend 
 
Ya momma cooking up on the corner 
Ya boy selling life to the coroner 
The gift of the foreigner 
He not going with tempos
Don't fuck up the temple 
They Roaming streets 
Mona Lisa be careful 
Tourist they fearful
City’s no virgin 
His eyes are so certain 
No Broadway but they closing curtains
 
The Phoenix unable to die
The girl who cried 
The boy who lied 
The side you picked 
The wave you ride
I hope you drown 
Sea of lights 
The Concrete jungle the Jane that fights


Like a Phoenix
Unable to die
Rising from the ashes
Just to get by
Unable to die
