MAGNUM OPUS COLLECTIO SERIES is a set of three volumes, each inspired by the different phases of the alchemical process, which works with the prima materia to create the philosopher‘s stone.

The three phases of alchemic process have been used in the Hermetic tradition to describe personal and spiritual transmutation, as well as a medium in art and literature. These three phases also have been meant by Carl Gustav Jung as a model for the individuation process, an unrepeatable psychic process, which leads each individual to approach his ego with the self. In other words the individuation process is a progressive integration and unification of all shadows and complexes forming the personality within oneself.

This project involved the painter Valentina Bardazzi as the creator of three artwork concepts. The work will be on sale in digital form on Bandcamp, under the merchandise section of Undogmatisch. Every exemplar is printed on special matt paper and is signed by the artist.

All artists that has made possible this project are from Italy, Germany, Denmark, China, Iran, Spain, Greece, Cyprus, Poland but mostly based in Berlin and gravitating somehow around or close to Undogmatisch.

In the Jungian archetypal scheme, NIGREDO is the Shadow; ALBEDO refers to anima and animus and RUBEDO is the archetype of the Self that has reached completeness.

The idea behind this piece was to use only sounds produced by the Spree System modular synthesizer and arrange them in a D.A.W. (Ableton Live 8) in order to create an organic and emotional ambient/drone composition, which somehow aims to condense the birth, life and death of a human being in its 5-minute duration.
All sounds are recorded from the Spree System modular synthesizer going through an Eventide ultra harmonizer in two sessions taking place in December 2014, except for one sustained chord clearly heard around 3:30 until the end of the piece, which was recorded from a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer.

Spree System memories

This performance uses electric guitar connected to a laptop running a Max/MSP patch, which recognises certain notes played at a certain volume to activate different effects.
