The Zeigarnik Effect or "anxiety for the unfinished" is a human condition experimented when we have something to be finished. Memories and attention are then enhanced, although this effect is controversial from the scientific point of view.

This disquiet junto project, which has been conceived in 3 phases, might trigger the effect. Uploading a track that is half-baked on purpose is always painful.

Sound Of Mountain ( Naviarhaiku 487 )

As I found myself tremendously inspired by Glitcher's and SinnySounds' evocative "Somebody's Home", I proceeded to layer sparse electric guitar tones through Chase Bliss Mood and Moog MurF, recording and removing, listening and listening deeper, in order not to diminish the gorgeous sparseness of the original duo arrangement. 
Some of the experimental improvs yielded some percussion sounds (all played on guitar), and I felt these lent themselves perfectly for concluding the piece. At the eleventh hour, I recorded some electric bass swells to beef up the lower frequencies,  about two thirds of the way in.

Here's the source duo file onto which I overdubbed my tracks, thanks guys for coming up with such a creativity-fuelling duo composition: https://soundcloud.com/sinnysounds/somebodys-home-disquiet0592

Enjoy!

Forget everything you know about how best to listen to audio. This useful and practical broadcast will demonstrate to you a whole new way of experiencing sound. It will explain the equipment you need in order to maximise your binaural enjoyment and, provided its instructions are followed meticulously, it will enable you to unlock sonic delights, the likes of which you never previously imagined possible. Prepare to be amazed...

I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my good friend, Phil Pinder for allowing me to use his untitled artwork to accompany this recording.

A New Way of Listening was created in Ableton Live 11 during winter 2023/24.

A New Way Of Listening

I used the wonderful track Marsh Bones by Raincat - many thanks! - and added a right channel to it. Some of it is 56 BPM. My addition consists of alto recorder (a.k.a Altflöte), bells, industrial noises from a factory and a synth note (C1).

Left track by @raincat-306596410

Note: this sounds awful on headphones because of the strict left/right mix.

Disquiet0637 - Marsh Bones Factory (with Raincat)

Movement 11 from my 2020 exhibition 'La morte mi troverà vivo' (death will find me alive). I dont know where to start or finish with the story of this piece - if you want the long version please go to bandcamp https://nomatesensemble.bandcamp.com/album/la-morte-mi-trover-vivo  there 3 essays on the exhibition in the notes and of course the whole work which is 90 minutes long. This piece for Intonarumori was the starting point for the show, written and recorded to be played at Luigi Russolo's grave as a form of 'calling ' to his spirit. La morte mi troverà vivo is a kind of sonic seance where i composed music as an evocation and used occult number theory to manipulate field recordings to capture what i term an 'imagined response from the spirit world'. The work was made in Italy July/August 2019 and exhibited in Hobart Tasmania in Jan/Feb 2020. I will post visual links and more info at a stage, though of course its a sound installation (i managed to get the whole room to softly rumble with speakers installed out of site in the walls and under the floor)so there isn't heaps to see. :) Thank you all, sorry to ramble !!
