20250111 - Omar Reyna's Sounds of Turbulence - Making Waves

On today’s episode of Making Waves we will be listening to “Non-predictable” by Omar Reyna. Afterwards we will talk to Omar about his piece which is included in the soon to be released 19th compilation album from The Deep Wireless Festival. Over the next four episodes of Making Waves we will be featuring artists from Deep Wireless.Reyna’s work “Non-predictable” is an exploration of the sounds of turbulence in nature. Do the sounds of wind hitting trees or the tonal colours of moving water have emotions that fluctuate over time? This 45 minute long form piece is arranged in three sections that are approximately 15 minutes each and there is a radiophonic quality stemming from the associative qualities of the sounds of wind, rapids, ravens and breaking glass.Omar Reyna is a Mexican-Canadian interdisciplinary artist. He focuses on the intersection of research and the activity of making. And believes that the process of making art while experimenting serves as a form of physical thinking. Much of his artistic practice takes place in the Boreal Forest near Whitehorse, Yukon, where he now lives and works.
