Diego Véliz
Sound Desert – Agrovoices & FCALP
58’, autoproduction (Chili)

Cette suite en cinq tableaux, aussi divers que les territoires qu’ils évoquent, est une immersion dans les sons de Arica, une ville chilienne si-tuée aux confins du Pérou et de la Bolivie, au cœur du désert d’Atacama. Successivement, une promenade le long de la zone côtière, les ambiances et voix d’une gare routière internationale, un marché agricole, une zone humide en péril, et les friches d’une gare ferroviaire inoccupée. 

Diego Véliz s’est formé au cinéma documentaire au Chili, à Cuba et en Espagne. Il est l’auteur des courts métrages projetés dans plus de 40 festivals. Il vit et travaille dans la région tri-frontalière du Chili, du Pérou et de la Bolivie, où il développe des projets artistiques avec sa société de production Candelabro Films. "Sound Desert" est son premier projet d’art sonore.

Ancient Greek text: 
Πρὸ τοῦ ἐμβῆναι ἐν βάθει εἰς τοιαῦτα μυστήρια, γνώθι:
ὁ παντοδύναμος νέος θεός ἡμῶν μεταβάλλει τὸν ἄνθρωπον 
πρὸς πηλόν πάλιν.
ὦ Δὶa
Ὦ Δὶa, ἄκουσον τὰς προσευχὰς τὰς κλαίουσας,
ἀναστῆθι ἐκ σήψεως, ἵνα γένωμαι τὸ παιδίον σου!
Ἔσο ὑπόσχεσίς μου!
Ἄκουε.
Ἄκουε, νεφέλωμα τοῦ ὑψίστου οὐρανοῦ,
ὡς γαυγίζει ὥσπερ πεινών κύων.
Μακάριος ἐστὶν ὁ δουλεύων τῷ Διὶ.
ὦ Δὶa
ὦ Δὶa
————————
English translation:
Before entering deeply into such mysteries, know:
our almighty new god turns man back into mud 
ὦ Zeus 
ὦ Zeus, listen to my weeping prayers,
rise from decay, so that I give birth to your child!
That's my promise!
Listen.
Listen, to the nebula of the heavenly highest sky,
as it howls like a hungry dog.
Blessed is he who works for Zeus.
ὦ Zeus
ὦ Zeus

Diaphanousness

Commissioned by the American Composers' Forum and written for Tigue Percussion, 2019. Premiered 1/24/19 at The Kitchen, NYC.

Mass of Dissolution is a new work commissioned by the American Composers' Forum and written specially for the percussion trio Tigue. The piece is conceived of as an incantation against the blind violence of military-industrial power that dominates global dynamics. Combining extended techniques for percussion with dislocated fragments of traditional American drum corps music, this work takes an intense and abstract approach to contemporary percussion music. With an array of percussion instruments, from tympani to triangle, to random metal objects, these instruments are used to evoke the sound of helicopters, engines, and alarms – all industrial tools used in modern warfare. Direct musical references to military percussion repertoire taken from Wilcoxen's All American Drummer become a machine so tightly wound that eventually the apparatus seizes and violently disassembles itself.

Destroying Angel

44’27, Image and sound, Roumanie
with the help of the Administration of the National Cultural Fund

One of the first sociological and ethnographical documentary films in the world, made by Professor Dimitrie Gusti (1880-1955), founder of the Sociological School of Bucharest) and his team of trained sociologists and students. The documentary tracks the activities and customs from the mountain village Drăguş, later established as a privileged setting for Romanian sociologists and anthropologists. In composing, I looked for synesthesia, working with and without the image medium.

Simina Oprescu in 2015 graduated from the Department of Photo-Video at UNArte in Bucharest and in the period 2017-2018 she did one year in the acousmatic composition department of the Royal Conservatory in Mons, Belgium.
