Live Turntable Performances

Electronic Tracks

Composer: Shiva Feshareki

Title: The Torus of Revolution  

Year: 2020

Length: 35’

Instrumentation List: Fixed Ambisonic Electronics (or multitrack file) and surround-sound speaker arrangement.

Description: This state-of-the-art 3D sound sculpture is for installation in an exhibition space or concert hall. It was composed live in performance by Shiva Feshareki at Hellerau Arts Centre,  Germany, inside an ambisonic speaker dome,  using her turntables as a unique instrument of sound manipulation. Recordings of her previous acoustic and electronic compositions are used as samples that are spatially and sonically transformed into new perspectives, live in improvisation. The sound sculpture moves within space as intangible objects and spatial patterns, and has since been exhibited as a fixed installation at London’s Southbank Centre. Commissioned by the Hellerau European Centre of the Arts.

Performers in audio example: Shiva Feshareki (ambisonic turntables).
