        Sarid


14ch 
(2022) 12’

Saríd שָׂרִיד, from Hebrew, describes something that remains after the destruction and that resembles existence of the whole. A trace of something disappearing or no longer existing, it leaves only reminiscences, fading echoes of the sound.

A thrilling accession towards noise, Sarid reveals a unique and sensitive approach to the tension between distortion and essence, absence and delicate prominence, going further than the material itself. Uncovering the piercing density and convulsive fluctuations of energy, the piece uses the instability of sound as a starting point and constructs reality in between careful displacement and complete chaos.  A meld of many contributions, poetic and rough, remnants of noise adapted to new sonic realities.

        Yesh me’Ayin


stereo / 8-channel fixed media composition
(2021) 9'12

Yesh me'Ayin - a composition prepared in the Analogue Studio BEA5 of the Institute of Sonology in The Hague. Using the studio's analogue equipment from the 60s and later for sound transformation, and experimenting with techniques of acousmatic music, the piece is an elaboration on an authentic collection of recorded material.

The work unfolds as an electric field, a pulsating soundscape of a traditional Chinese instrument - guqin, and deconstructed percussion; a dynamic interplay between its recurring elements.

        Echo of the zero and the second hundred: delusions of wondering rumble


8-ch sound installation
(2022) 12’5
Het HEM, Zaandam, Netherlands

Taking place from the middle of the long tunnel, a sound system spreads for 75 meters, merging acoustical spaces into a whole vibrating continuity. A composition for the acoustics of the tunnel, the 'Echo of the zero..' originates from a small resonating room and dramatically expands to evoke a response of the space all along its joints.

Ultra-Sonic-Face

Composition for two ultrasonic masks,  collaboration with Amos Peled
15-20’ (2022)

Ultra-Sonic-Face is a performance piece in which the speaker is worn on the face by the performer as a mask, cultivating a new sense of space based on auditory perception. The unique characteristics of the ultrasonic speaker technology allows the sound to be transmitted in a narrow directional beam, and for the sound to be reflected from the architecture of the space, highlighting the unique features of the surrounding. 

Performed with Amos and Yoel Peled as part of the iii ‘No Patent Pending #43 program at Gaudeamus festival, Ultrecht NL, 10 september 2022
