< strikes > is protest trance music. Inspired by the sonic use of pots and pans in the Chilean social movement, Strikes was first a collection of recordings, made one encounter after another in Valparaíso: each person was invited, according to his or her own rhythm and energy, to bang on an object chosen for its sonic or symbolic qualities. The piece explores the polyphony that results from the superposition of these pulsations, and the serendipitous multiplicity of rhythms that emerge.
