FRANCISCO LOPEZ AND NOVI_SAD

Ellipsis

source: vimeo

Sound artists Francisco López (Spain) and Novi_sad (Greece) have explored together the blurred territory between reality and the creation of self-contained sound enviornments through a long process of transformation of sonic materials. Working with the same shared field recordings carried out in the region of Ancient Olympia in Greece, they have created two individual pieces with extreme dynamics, at times obscure and dense, but laden with hidden complexity and a few surprised for the most adventurous listeners.

Ellipsis by Novi_sad included in Titans, GH112CD, GH Records

Novi_sad is the mutated body that stands on the tips of it’s toes to look over a wall of white noise. It reaches the edge, almost getting a glimpse of what is on the other side. It almost sees.

And when it almost sees, then it hears.

And when it hears, it hears the sudden attack of static. And as it hears it looks: the sky is static and falls like a sonic ceiling collapsing on its sole inhabitant: Novi_sad.

Novi_sad is the sound of the shadow of the body that faces the wall of sound.

The mutated body steps back from the wall. It is not a wall, it is a mirror.

The mutated body looks at itself. It sees: an open mouth that is shouting to itself and is not heard, it sees closed ears bleeding for themselves that do not hear.

It says: lift sonic ceilings up over my head, push them up over the sky, as far as my arms can reach, as far as my eyes can see.

I will hear, I will here.
