Shadows & Dust

This piece is an audio path, the musical / sonic experiences I have gained over the last 5 years studying in Corfu but also traveling the world. The piece develops concepts such as the journey, the transition, the passage and the idea of our instant existence in a natural or non-landscape. Following this idea, the piece projects scenes in different "spaces and places" others being presented by the sound horizon, others show up from the urban environment and others emerging from the underground.

Spaces & Places won the 3rd prize in the Iannis Xenakis International Electronic Music Competition (2021)

A Space Journey

"Quarks" are considered basic types of elementary particles that make up matter. Micro sounds are the basic genome of this work in an attempt to “decode” the ongoings and interactions of those fundamental constituent of matter. Crackling, noisy, melodic sounds are combined to recreate new sound patterns. All together they branch out to bigger sound materials. The outcome: an imaginary sound environment of moving particles filled with pulsed activity, sonic gestures, granular textures and swift cut-aways.
"Quarks" was selected in CALL FOR WORKS 2021 by Empirica, performed during the first edition of REF - Resilience Festival and published in the album “FIXED.wav 2021” distributed by Empirica | MID SIDE Aps. https://spoti.fi/3fL8Ejo
