about

Composition 2023.01 (Untitled) is based on a short harmonic sequence from Arnold Schoenberg’s composition Six Little Pieces Op. 19 (1911)

Composition 2023.05 (Untitled) consists of repeating dyads with an underlying fading tones.

Composition 2023.06 (Untitled) consists of chord sequences by determined by using the Open AI ChatGPT application.

The title - Heard Again - is a play on ‘seen again’ or ‘already seen’ - and which translates in French as ‘déjà vu’.

Déjà vu refers to the strong and uncanny feeling that one has experienced the present situation or event before - even though it is happening for the first time. It's like a brief moment where the present feels oddly familiar - as if it's a repetition of a past experience. The subjective nature of the experience makes it difficult to determine if it's a real memory or a trick of the mind.

The linear movement of the tones and chords within these composition suggest an almost never ending and continuous cycle of events without any conclusion or resolve. In a sense - time becomes a repeating loop.

The sensation of déjà vu is like being stuck in a loop - and you think you know what’s going to happen next - but then your thoughts catch up with the end of the loop - and you don’t know where you are. ‘Have you really heard this before?’
