10 minute audio-visual recording of ‘irregular atmospheric motion’, four channels converted into stereo

 

Irregular atmospheric motion is a meditative audiovisual environment with no clear beginning end, or in the traditional sense progression. It rather exists as layers of organic interwoven textures, emerging frequencies and their continuous subtle disturbance. The main body of its sound thus flows like an all-engulfing moving haze. From within this wind-like drone rise fragments of notes, only to disintegrate into wavering currents of delicate noise. Currents formed by the impurities of sound, directed by the

interruption of movement and the turbulence within its resonant tones. These gentle gusts of sonic texture manifest only to submerge within the ever-dissolving stream of timbre, tonality, fluctuation and pulse. They form an acoustic environment irregular on all levels of magnification.

In turn the image is comprised of an overall static structure. A structure however which aims to deny detailed observation through continuous underlying interventions with its solid form. A transient composition of subtle unrest and distraction, comprised by drifting variations in colouration, wavering shifts in texture and ever-changing focal points. The perpetually shifting visual parameters converge into a sensual choreography of serene dynamic tension, and as

such are complementing the acoustic movements. These fluidly intertwining alterations in image and sound amalgamate to create a mesmerising display of impermanence. A display modelled on the intrinsic behaviour of natural organic systems, characterised by the attractiveness of eternal turbulence and flux. Within the work stability only exists in its perpetual absence.
