“V objemu vibracij” – (In the embrace of the vibrations) – electroacoustic project Boštjan Perovšek (Kinogledališče Tolmin)

“V objemu vibracij” – (In the embrace of the vibrations), Boštjan Perovšek’s electroacoustic project’s main sound source is a concrete sound, mostly the sound of insects and spiders. These sounds are connected to short sound modules, which are otherwise minimalistic short compositions, but in the process of electroacoustic processing, they connect with each other. They also connect with purely electronic sound modules whose sound structure can be very similar to the sound of insect and spider advertising. Because these advertisements can be very similar to the synthetic source of electronic instruments, an interesting sound mass is generated, for which we often do not know or listen to pure electronics, pure natural sounds, or the synthesis of one and the other.

In 2018, Boštjan Perovšek in Tomáš Saracen Studio in Berlin acquired and recorded the sounds of spiders, which he began to incorporate into his bioacoustic compositions and live performances. The vibrating signals of insects and spiders together with electronic sounds and electroacoustic treatments combined in the latest project “In the embrace of vibrations”, which will be realized at the Sajeta 2019 as an 8-channel audio installation. The installation will also hear elements from the composition “Pavillion For Spiders Sound Tour”, which was performed on May 8, 2019, at the opening of the pavilion “Spider / Web Pavilion 7 – Studio Tomás Saraceno” at “Biennale Arte 2019 – La Biennale di Venezia “.

With this project, Boštjan Perovšek continues his work in the field of combining art and science, which he started already in the 1980s.
