SHAPE+ Broadcast Series (@shape-platform) #29 w/ R3YWYA (@r3ywya)

R3YWYA is a noise-based project by artist Evija Ābrama, centred on sonic improvisation as a means of exploring communication and the role of noise within spatial environments. Through her work, Ābrama adopts an eco-acoustic perspective, treating sound not merely as material but as a dynamic network of spatial relationships. Her compositions reveal rhythms that both disrupt and echo the ambient textures of the surrounding environment, offering a nuanced reflection on how sound inhabits and transforms space.
R3YWYA is an artist of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music and interdisciplinary art.
My name is R3YWYA (reivija), a noise musician whose craft lies in deep listening to music and responding to it in the moment, creating soundscapes through improvisation. In my work, I often turn to old cassettes found in thrift stores, as they highlight the act of attentive listening — the moment when we either truly hear and understand what was once recorded, or begin to perceive the old information as something entirely new. This approach is also present in my latest track, heard at the very beginning of the radio piece, which features a cassette titled Thumbelina containing songs by Ēriks Vilsons and Valdis Zilveris, originally composed for the Liepāja Theatre production of Thumbelina. In this way, the work not only carries a narrative forward but also reflects on how stories once read and heard can, with time, fade into echoes — emphasizing the fluid and shifting nature of memory.
In the second part of the piece, you can hear a live recording from this year’s industrial music festival “Kūcvāls”, where I had the honor of performing as one of the featured artists. This fragment captures my practice in direct application — an unfiltered moment of listening, reacting, and shaping sound in real time, surrounded by the raw energy of the festival’s atmosphere.

Why noise?
Because silence doesn't exist.
