A Hiss of Light is the first recording made by sound artists Alanas Gurinas and Sholto Dobie. Both artists work with acoustic sound sculptures and self-made instruments made with everyday materials. In the case of Gurinas, vibrating and taught paper objects emit pulsing sine tones, organic chirps and shimmering noise that drift like weather fronts whilst in Dobie’s work, air is the main material, compressed and channeled through a set of valves, tubes and timers, into pipes of various origins.
In these pieces, assembled and recorded in Dobie’s studio in Vilnius, Lithuania their sonic world's combine, and fold into an embrace with each other. Forming invisible landscapes and channels, in which the listener, with an ear to the ground, moves through.
