The sound experimentation work Ata mārie (good morning, in Maori), is a mixture of different recordings made in New Zealand, from sounds of the river, different types of birds, cicadas, a story and songs, to which were added, leaf rattles, percussions, and other synthesizer sounds. The intention of this experiment is to recreate a landscape / time, such as around the Whanganui River. Whoever listens to the audio will be immersed in that mystical climate of ritual, taking the place of the person who is being "awakened" by an indigenous Maori in a new dawn, with the help of his voice and the birds. The voices used correspond to the reading of a children's story that talks about the gods of their culture, but the intention is that these words are heard as mere sound frequencies. This awakening is that of a person who lived in the city and was transported to that space / time by the song of some girls (a fragment of popular song from Samoa) who were at the door of a market.

Ata mārie (buenos días, en Maorí), es una mezcla de diferentes grabaciones realizadas en Nueva Zelanda, desde sonidos del río, diferentes tipos de aves, cigarras, un relato y cantos, a lo que se le sumaron, sonajas de hojas, percusiones y otros sonidos de sintetizadores. La intención de este experimento es recrear un paisaje/tiempo, como alrededor del río Whanganui. Quien escuche el audio estará sumergido en ese místico clima de ritual, tomando el lugar de la persona que está siendo "despertada" por un indígena Maorí en un nuevo amanecer, con la ayuda de su voz y las aves. Las voces utilizadas corresponden a la lectura de un cuento para niños que habla de los dioses de su cultura, pero la intención es que esas palabras sean escuchadas como meras frecuencias sonoras. Este despertar es el de una persona que vivía en la ciudad y fue transportada a ese espacio/tiempo por el canto de unas niñas (fragmento de canto popular de Samoa) que se encontraban en la puerta de un mercado.

Vocal Practice is part of my personal health regime, especially so when I remember to do it and ever more specially so when I do it and understand or feel in heart and mind unity why I am doing it. In November I was practicing in front of microphones with my laptop and the array of granular patches and made some recordings. This be one of them.

This track is a loopable drone made Disquiet Junto project 0554 using the chord E5, A#4, E4, D#4, Db3, C3. The Junto project is based around John Cage's “Organ²/ASLSP”, a 639 year long piece that happens to be playing this chord right now.  

Submitted drones will be sequenced into one large drone piece to be played at the Cage Room, a pop-up workshop and exhibition space of the festival at Progr, Bern, Switzerland.
