Interdependencies I
*100 copies limited edition* The 4.1-channel composition 'Interdependencies I' (2018) by artist and composer Christian Skjødt Hasselstrøm, derives its conceptual and sonic foundation from a meticulously crafted analog electronic 8-voice instrument, purposefully designed to probe the realms of electrical interdependence. In a paradigm akin to a zero-sum game, this microtonal device comprises eight oscillators engaged in an intricate struggle for the finite electrical resources within the intercon…
Ventilator, Trio
*188 copies limited edition* "Ventilator, trio” (2013) is a electroacoustic piece studying airflow and various phenomena such as asynchronicity, the Doppler effect as well as the proximity effect of microphonics. In this simplistic installation the airflow of three mechanical fans (one large, flanked by two small fans) is picked up by three directional microphones. As each fan rotates in different tempo, different ‘pitches’ emerge. Furthermore differences in amplitude as well as changes in the l…
ÆTER
*200 copies limited edition* The sound installation 'ÆTER' (2017) by artist and composer Christian Skjødt Hasselstrøm, can be seen as a study of electromagnetism, translating the phenomena into an immersive sonic environment. Consisting of copper antennas and analogue electronic circuitry, the autonomous systems directly capture and transform the ever-present electromagnetic waves in the air around us into low frequency audio material. ÆTER thus “listens” to its surroundings - the nature, techno…
Maapallo
*200 copies limited edition* "In our oversaturated digital age, where ubiquitous media connections enable instant gratification and a continuous flood of competing interests, we often make snap judgments as we multitask through masses of incoming information. Technological advances were supposed to unleash creative thinking, but this deluge has instead led to an erosion of our creativity and attention. In many ways, the idea of a 'long-form' music is unsuitable for and out of phase with our time…
