Digitally frozen contemplation

SOUND-PICTURES PAINTED WITH COLORS OF AMBIANCES ON CANVAS OF TIME..

Slavek Kwi about his CD 'ZoomSpectives':

Subjective report from certain process,

sonic cartography of railway-station Jonfosse

with documentary and poetic character,

digitally frozen contemplation about urban

and natural enviroment, human being in 'it'

and human rile in modification of sound-surroundings,

about mental processes of interpretation,

chainings of (un)voluntary associations - impulse, meeting with first idea...

provocation of creation,

about physical impacts of sound on our behavior, ...

reaction, interaction, action, situaction.

Could be Th ReAlity itself, whatever "it is", conceived as musical instrument?

'ZoomSpectives' was realized in Studios of CRFMW, Liege

and C&C, Antwerpen by Slavek Kwi in periode January - May 1998.
