“Resonating Screens”. Alex Mendizabal

Old listen caved ears caves

Passive sonar listens without transmitting
music deals with passive listening

A birdcall that might shift two distant points
accelerates the close action (not the retro action) of an oscillator

music identity deafinition

unison
beat frequency fascination

virtual bass

next to the era of amplifiers
there was the era of silencers
applied to the comfort and follies by the engines

the unfashioned came and was stable
and again, anchor

the first “stable” and the first “anchor” were:
the sequence and listening
families of listening

localization of sources became musical element
with many exercises and results (as in the laboratory)
as in the acoustics laboratory
no signs or notes or dynamics.
Only quality.
Not being the words that make the story,
lack iludes.
