Sublime Retreat:

"The sound materials of "the memory of things" appear to emerge from a time that does not exist, or has yet to exist.

It is not the memories themselves that are important, but the way we connect them: we tangle, we weave, we classify by improbable, sometimes unheard intervals. Selvedges are crossed and paths are traced. us.

Things' memories are forming a time capsule. We build a memorial and sound structure by piling one layer of the present on top of another.

It is a landscape with immediate depth to which our ears remain attentive."

Artist bios via the label:

"SETH NEHIL

Seth Nehil is a visual, performance, and sound artist. He started to work with sound around 1990 using found objects and instruments, old records, reel-to-reel machines, discarded magnetic tapes, and other detritus.

His music for tapes and instruments is a descendant of the tape-music experiments of the 1950s. confused pieces of Tracing the Skins of Clouds (Kaon, 1998) were the manifesto of his chamber music for found objects and instruments.

Nehil centers his sound constructions upon the topographical contour of an immense plain, what he refers to as "a balanced field." He also worked with ND magazine from 1995-2000 as a writer and artistic contributor, and is currently the editor of FO( A) RM magazine. He continues collaborations with John Grzinich, Olivia Block and Michael Northam in sound, performance, and organization.

BRUNO DUPLANT

Bruno Duplant is a prolific composer and a musician living in the north of France. He has collaborated with many musicians around the globe and has also made solo works.

For Duplant, composing and playing music is similar to imagining, creating, and sometimes decomposing new spaces/realities, and new entities. ly.

His photographic practice and writing (poetry), for some time, join his musical practice, in many crossings, for many exchanges"
