Paul Prudence – Ficciones
Weaving together the soft accents of field-recordings, microscopic sound fragments and modular synthesis, the pieces fluctuate between the machine-like and the organic, and sometimes combine the two to create a complex sonic ecology. With forensic precision modular rhythmic collages have been grafted onto subtle melodic phrases; stuttering percussive structures are held in orbit by elliptical sinusoidal drones. The pieces are seen as being audio-visual experiences without the visual part. The tracks create a sense of motion in space, kinetic activity cue the existence of teeming entities.

Об исполнителе
Пол Пруденс (Paul Prudence) - британский медиа-художник, разрабатывающий генеративные видео-среды и абстрактные саундскейпы. Его работы и исследования имеют международную известность и вошли в учебники по современному цифровому искусству. Он разрабатывает медиа-инсталляции и перформансы, в которых звук, пространство и форма интерпретируются в виде аудио-визуального опыта в реальном времени. Также в сферу его интересов входит исследование систем визуализации данных, осмысление гео-процессов через визуальные алгоритмы, взаимоотношения между естественными природными процессами и генеративными арт-практиками.
_____________________________________________________________
Paul Prudence is an audio-visual performer working with generative video environments and abstract soundscapes. His work, which has been shown and performed internationally, focuses on the ways in which sound, space and form can be cross-wired to create live-cinematic visual-music experiences.
Paul maintains the weblog Dataisnature exploring the historical and contemporary interrelationships between natural processes, computational systems and procedural-based art practices. He also writes for Neural and HOLO magazines.
О релизе
This new set of compositions retreats towards a quieter and more contemplative zone, weaving together the soft accents of field-recordings, microscopic sound fragments and modular synthesis. The result is a hypnotic mesh of musique concrète, drone, prepared sounds and shimmering electronic synthesis. The pieces fluctuate between the machine-like and the organic, and sometimes combine the two to create a beguiling sonic ecology. It's with a kind of forensic precision that Prudence has reconstructed from his palette these unexpected chance encounters of sound. Modular rhythmic collages are grafted onto subtle melodic phrases, stuttering percussive structures are held in orbit by elliptical sinusoidal drones. Prudence talks about these compositions as being audio-visual experiences without the visual part. The tracks create a sense of motion in space, kinetic activity and the existence of teeming entities.
'Ficciones is a potpourri of colliding concepts, the digital and organic sources bouncing off with each other in a neutrally twisted realm. Field recordings adhere to manipulated synthesis, triggering images of falling water, twisting metal, and cosmic bourne storms. There is an extraterrestrial element to these landscapes, and just as you manage to hold on to one revealed universe, another one bubbles up fast from inside. Fans of modular sound design and acoustic spacescapes (those missing earlier Autechre‘s concept and flow) will undoubtedly appreciate all of the buzzing, warping, and chiming, that consummates in robotic and analogue, dead and alive.' - Headphone Commute
'Ficciones, the new album by Paul Prudence is an (almost) quiet wonder of Enoesque summits; laced through with lush, substantive, bodily Borgesian coils. Brilliant ambient baroque' - LapsusLima
