CCM 34 – Impossible: Mix-Zion # 951

Posted on 2022/09/24 by thx1138

“Speed increases, space expands, a new culture emerges…a culture of aphasia in which ideas and identities slip and slide constantly…if you close your eyes you lose the power of abstraction. We stumble across limits to conceptualising, it is time to learn how to judge society by its sounds and not by its words.”

complex cognitive material # 29: Wicked Delights (podcast)

Posted on 2022/03/12 by thx1138

31. The aesthetic of the glitch tends toward blockiness, toward crystalline fragmentation. Even an audio glitch creates the impression of edges. As many have noted, this opposes the “bleeding” or “warmth” we perceive in some forms of analog distortion (the famous advantage of tube amplifiers over solid state). This instantaneous fracturing is what glitch artists savor. The image crazed. A sound in shards.

Two blocks west of the Chat, in a teashop called the Jarre de Thé, Case washed down the night’s first pill with a double espresso. It was a flat pink octagon, a potent species of Brazilian dex he bought from one of Zone’s girls.”

ccm # 25: radio free albemuth

It can be said, for me at least, that sampling, looping and re-assembling both found materials and site specific sounds selected for precision of relevance to thee message implications of a piece of music or a transmedia exploration, is an alchemical, even a magical phenomenon. No matter how short, or apparently unrecognizable a “sample” might be in linear time perception, I believe it must, inevitably, contain within it (and accessible through it), the sum total of absolutely everything its original context represented, communicated, or touched in any way; on top of this it must implicitly also include the sum total of every individual in any way connected with its introduction and construction within the original (host) culture, and every subsequent (mutated or engineered) culture it in any way, means or form, has contact with forever (in Past, Present, Future and Quantum time zones).

“Any two particles that have once been in contact will continue to act as though they are informationally connected regardless of their separation in space and time.”
– Bell’s Theorem

Reflecting Translation of Desire

“Si racconta che Domenico Scarlatti abbia preso per tema di una sua fuga il motivo composto dal suo gatto che camminava sul clavicembalo; anche se in questo caso occorrerebbe parlare di fortuito dell’azione piuttosto che di aleatorio della struttura del ritmo. E nessuno può escludere che Henry Bergson ignorasse questo episodio quando ha osservato che gli effetti del caso si notano soprattutto quando questo «si comporta come se avesse una intenzionalità».
Quando si usa il termine «caso» non facciamo altro che esprimere una mancanza di informazioni esplicative che, qualora fossero disponibili, renderebbero prevedibile l’evento, sottraendolo alla indeterminatezza del fortuito e riconsegnandolo alla certezza dell’inevitabilmente necessario.”

Berlinghiero Buonarroti. “Encyclopaedia Heterologica”

“Domenico Scarlatti is said to have taken as the theme of one of his fugues the motif composed by his cat walking on the harpsichord; although in this case it would be necessary to speak of the fortuitous action rather than the randomness of the rhythm structure. And no one can rule out that Henry Bergson ignored this episode when he observed that the effects of the case are most noticeable when it “behaves as if it had intentionality.”
When we use the term “random” we do nothing but express a lack of explanatory information which, if available, would make the event predictable, removing it from the indeterminacy of the fortuitous and returning it to the certainty of the inevitably necessary.”

Berlinghiero Buonarroti. “Encyclopaedia Heterologica”
