about

Our hymnal (humnal) is comprised of recordings reacting to the original call made by Misael Soto's "Sand: Amphitheater, Theater, Arena," to reflect and explore sand as a material, its place within the historic record, used to form this place as we’ve known it. We reacted to sand as a hefty material, an insulator made heavy by its proximity to the ocean and its forces. If sand is a medium, then the forces of the current are its guide.

During "Sand: Amphitheater," we recorded the shoreline live with listeners huddled around, wearing headphones, as mics documented performative gestures simultaneously with the surf. Mics on the beach where they shouldn’t be. The hydrophone traces the shoreline when rocked by the waves. Mic moved north, surf pushes south, a Sisyphean task. The presentation of the hymn "SANDtrack" during the live component of the program was loud, dispersing (most) of an audience uncomfortable with a distorted version of the landscape, an urban experience of the waterways. This document investigates the material through urban water, wetness, activation, field work, process, tech, gestures con intenciones.

SANDtrack: A sonic map of various points on, near, or within Miami’s shorelines, as captured through varying microphone arrays and arranged geographically from south to north, west to east. Initially composed and presented in conjunction with Sand: Amphitheater on 10.28.18. [Atlantic MB Shoreline, storm drain, seafoam, South Point Pier, Deering Estate]

SND: A response piece to SANDtrack, utilizing incidental loops and fragments of the original piece arranged over a sprawling, rhythmic backdrop derived from related field recordings run through granular synthesis patches.

LiveOceanHydro_10_28_18: Live feed recorded with listeners experiencing the shoreline of Miami Beach transduced through hydrophones, as part of an immersive teaching performance during Sand, Amphitheater on 10.28.18.

SAND_Hertz: A response to LiveOceanHydro_10_28_18 utilizing frequency manipulation to transform natural shoreline sounds as transduced through hydrophones into an abstraction resembling a long, reverberating bell solo.
