| november 2011 release ; ... a collection of 8 (eight) immaculately presented works from florian hecker (with input, framework, and “auditory scene assistance” from carsten höller, alberto de campo, sabisha friedberg, oliver pasquet, stefan bernard, & tina frank) spread across four sides of color-coded vinyl (below) ...
... ranging from pure barber-pole / shepard-tone exercises (listen to the first half of the sound-sample) to almost trautonium-esque sub-octave / ring & amplitude-modulated sliding(s - ditto, the second half) to various super-impositions of looped, rhythmically & harmonically transposed spoken texts, this acts as a fantastic “calling card” of florian’s whole ca.2011 “gesamtkunstwerk” ...
... i can’t think of another artist whose work this year was as thoroughly stimulating as florian’s (full disclosure :: he’s been in town giving talks & presentations for the past few months, all of which have been super great) ; this one’s just the icing on the proverbial cake ... highly recommended !!! |
