Heavy Cloud : Interior Monologues
Interior Monologues is 36-minutes and 11-tracks of textured noise, granular synthesis and musique concrete created from personal voice and field recordings.
The project is an abstract representation and reflection of individual and national anxiety. Words and actions were improvised – often captured in medias res – and then manipulated in real time.
The heart of this improvised experience is based on processed and looped personal samples created from a range of domestic objects, materials and environmental recordings. The body as well as the mind also became instruments: in breathing, in moving, in speaking, in thinking.
Each piece began with a textual or emotional cue and grew organically out of the collected samples. Sound was reshaped in order to attempt to illustrate a number of interior monologues that were circling during the week of recording. It is very much a monument to feelings during a specific moment in time.
Snippets of prose, poetry and spoken word interjects with non-verbal dialogue constructed from the erosion and recycling of surrounding soundscapes. Together these texts form an organic tone poem that tries to put forth questions towards both physical and emotional spheres, in hope of searching for potential coping mechanisms.
