Acoustic vision from beyond - a Vietnamese funeral

from Cities and Memory - remixing the world · host Cities and Memory

"This composition was created using exclusively a recording of a traditional Vietnamese funeral ceremony. Fragments were taken from the original track and subsequently manipulated. "In particular, the resonances produced by the percussive instrument were extracted, thus creating long sound bands, onto which the distant dirge is grafted. The intent was to create an internal acoustic vision imagined from the deceased's perspective."Funeral soundscape in Vietnam reimagined by Nicola Fumo Frattegiani.
