*300 copies limited edition* Channelling is a kinetic sound performance that utilizes various components salvaged from discarded and obsolete consumer technology, reanimating them by piping amplified sound through them. The motors and mechanisms respond to these sound impulses in erratic and unpredictable ways. The actions of, and emanations from, the devices are subsequently amplified.
"An array or swarm of vitalities, intertwined, of non human powers which transit channels. Trajectories that follow machinal logics, preselected and predictable; suddenly they exploit an aesthetic of the interruption or malfunction. Uncertain assemblages without intentions that remembers well the emergentivism, unpredictable and highly creative of Alexander. The nisus of the Greek which is the pulse of things to reach anew, the creative impetus.
Cracks, leaks, turbulences. Frictions, rebounds, scrapes. Ignitions, drags, silent intermissions. Batiments, without cause, immersed in a logic of contingency.
How much in common do we have the human and the non-human. How much shared vitality. The same impulse of things in beings. Lags, obstructions, desynchronizations. Fluids, currents, forces. Channels, connectivity, and its broken connection.
From the darkness of the macrobial soil or an intertidal zone, to the interior of a tubular structure, the similar search: the porous and the minute, the precarious taking an unusual power.
Is there any allusion to the high instability caused by consumption? A sonic reflection on the transversality of the vital where conflicts, confrontations, catastrophes and incidents articulate a microworld?" - Marianela Calleja, April 2024
