about

Composition 2017.03 (Untitled) is in the form of a palindrome - and was produced digitally using granular synthesis with samples of a cello. The composition was premiered at Iklectik - London - 11.10.2017.

Composition 2017.04 (Untitled) was produced digitally using granular synthesis with samples of a flute - and is a mix of both tonal and non-tonal elements. The tone-cell for the composition consists of: G1 - C3 - D#3 - F#3 - A#3. Composition 2017.04 (Untitled) was premiered at Corpora Aliena - Iklectik - London - 30.03.2019.

Composition 2018.05 (Violin Stories) was produced in collaboration with the Serbian musician and sound artist Manja Ristić - and is based on samples of a violin. The composition was premiered at Poetronica - curated by Pavel Zhagun - National Centre for Contemporary Art - Moscow - 21.04.2018

In the words of Manja Ristić: Composition 2018.05 (Untitled) was conceptualised with pre-recorded violin samples by Manja Ristić. Processed violin sounds build a meditative atmosphere inviting us into a deep listening experience. Suggested by "sonic breathing", drone-like fluctuations and spatial extensions with overall minimal sound movement - and allude to altered state of consciousness that transcend the alteration of space-time perception. The organic sound of the instrument is wrapped in a digital net developing a dense, almost material sonic body.



Description

The title - An integrated Worldview - refers to the importance of having a comprehensive and holistic perspective that seeks to unify various aspects of knowledge - beliefs - and understanding into a coherent and harmonious framework. It involves synthesising different disciplines - perspectives - and ideas to create a more complete understanding of the world and our place within it. This kind of worldview encourages the recognition of interconnectedness and interdependence among various phenomena - and it often goes beyond narrow or isolated viewpoints.

It's important to note that developing and maintaining an integrated worldview requires ongoing learning - reflection- and a willingness to adapt as new knowledge emerges. While striving for integration can lead to a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the world - it's also important to recognise that complete integration might not always be achievable due to the inherent complexity of reality and the limitations of human understanding.
