I will reactivate the soundscape and work on some more sound tests.
The sound of the levels will be key in connecting the three main spaces in the location,particularly the sewer sounds emanating from below, the hammering and industrial clank of the GUTS MACHINE and the organic physical noises from the subterranean world - Charley the sewermans' bad stomach in particular.Let's just say it - at one point the loudest trump in the world breaks forth and rattles from the bowells of the earth to the high domes - a little like a collective raspberry blown and the great and good for their terpitude,clearing out the passageways and crevices between the worlds.
My job now is to find a sound object that can do that almighty fart justice - the underworld itself will always be dripping and squelching with waterwork blockages and log jams,gurgling down deeper to the subsonic movements of the earth's crust...
It's almost like a coarse manifestation of Daphne Oram's frequency oscillations connecting the unified music of the spheres.
Meeting at Neville Hall, July 21.
