about

Composition 2014.01 (Untitled) is based on the use of Shepard Tones - which give the illusion that the sounds are slowly rising in pitch. The composition was first performed at Corpora Aliena - Iklectik [off-site] - 07.04.2021

Composition 2017.05 (Untitled) consists of a slowly pulsing drone and alternating fading sounds.

Composition 2019.03 (Untitled) consists of noise-based fading sounds separated by periods of silence - and which are followed at the end of the composition with a repeating message-like ‘signal’. The composition was first performed at Corpora Aliena - Iklectik - London - 13.07.2019

Metaphors are central to both language and thought. Philosophers like Nietzsche - Lakoff - and Johnson have argued that metaphors structure our perceptions and understanding of the world. They don't just beautify language; they shape cognition.

To consider a metaphor as "undecided" could mean that its interpretation is open-ended - not fixed or definitive. Philosophically - this reflects postmodern ideas about the indeterminacy of meaning and the idea that truth is multifaceted and subjective. An undecided metaphor might represent the inherent ambiguity in our attempts to make sense of the world. The nature of knowledge might be seen as non-fixed and constantly in flux. An undecided metaphor could be a reminder that our understanding of reality is always incomplete and subject to reinterpretation - and can prompt a rich exploration of how we understand and interpret our existence. It serves as a reminder of the complexity - ambiguity - and ever-evolving nature of our attempts to make sense of the world around us.
