about

“By exploiting the specific idiosyncrasies of hearing, one can produce auditory illusions. Visual illusions are well known, while auditory illusions are recent. This is because one can draw a contived figure with a pencil: but before computer synthesis, one could not contrive the structure of a sound in a similar way.
I have been interested in paradoxes and illusions to create musical, morphological or theatrical effects - but also because illusions reveal the very stuff of our hearing...”
Jean-Claude Risset.

This piece was composed for a masterclass given at the workshop in advanced projects in the School of Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Madrid.

The purpose of this workshop was the analysis and understanding of extreme landscapes. Locating the performance of students in the Spanish desert of Los Monegros in Aragon community.

All sounds in this composition are taken from field recordings from different locations of Spain and Morocco.
