Jacob Kirkegaard @ Número Projecta
from artificialeyes.tv Loopcast Hosted by synesthete
Danish Sound artist Jacob Kierkegaard "Investigates sonic membranes and discrete interference occurring in different environments. The first half of his set included a mix of sounds taken from scientific microphones embedded in the bubbling landscape of Iceland, with accompanying visuals. But it was the second half of his set where everything got real interesting. Jacob had traveled to Chernobyl, which is apparently quite the post modern tourist destination, and taken recordings in three separate rooms of the ambient sound for a span of 12 minutes, after which he played the recording of the room back to the room, recording it again and again, until the room ended up singing to itself with ambient noise. Mixing the various frequencies while a video of each space played behind him, Jacob showed why he is one of the most interesting acts in the white noise art scene, taking things up a notch by squeezing technological fuzz and hum from organic sources, and extrapolating them into a coherent, harmonic orchestral explosion.
