Music created for the "Cities and Memory" project, using a recording of starlings' murmurations in Otmoor (Oxfordshire) https://citiesandmemory.com/
Moors have always been mysterious places to me. Maybe it is because of its role in Arthur Connan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles, or because of my interest in railways, that made me discover the most remote station in Great Britain, in the middle of Rannoch Moor, Scotland.
Starlings murmurations are a mystery about collective behaviour. Their shapes always catch us by surprise. Their how, why and what are always fascinating. For this piece I have processed the original murmurations recorded in Oatmoor (Oxfordshire), by means of different transformative pipelines. I wanted to create something slightly mysterious, maybe menacing but not so much, as some murmurations and moors can be at times. May the music help listeners see and feel how those flocks become like a single massive entity, not only because they make a shape in the air but because, in this track, they are affected by a kind of transmogrification that turns them into otherworldly creatures. They then move the air, the whole sky fabric, in mysterious ways. Something in the way they move...

Starlings' Startling Murmuration On The Moor

An unedited take, long after midnight, during a night of strong winds and sporadic rain: before, during, and after a brief shower of rain on a brushed galvanised iron sculpture of flowers beside a railway station. The background drone resonance in the iron is produced by the action of the wind. Recorded with a pair of Geophons into a MixPre-6.

Sculpture by Rick Clise (2015), 'Elemental'.
