Alessandro Fogar - Prakriti

An hommage to Giacinto Scelsi

'Prakriti' (from the Sanskrit word meaning 'nature' or 'cosmic 
energy'),  is an exploration of nature through transformation of 
natural sounds and       integration of them with static drones 
obtained mainly stretching and granulating orchestral sounds.
All the sound is generated by a real time system, producing an infinite 
and ever-changing combination of sound events, it has been built using  
     SuperCollider2 on an Apple Macintosh computer.
Sounds from nature, recorded during a residence in Topolo`, a mountain 
village in Italy near the Slovenian border, are metabolized, 
transformed,       distorted, decomposed, granulated. The raw materials 
are transformed focusing on granules and acoustic micro-particles, on 
the microsound level and then mixed with orchestral sampled sounds.
The author acts by controlling the evolution of the work and the 
generation of new sound events, mixing and spatializing their 
stratification, composing the silence.
The enhanced CD is completed by the video "Uomini che guardano nascere" 
by Francesco Paladino, with the Fogar's soundtrack. A poetical 
elaboration of looks, restless, in a certain way.

Enjoy

Merry Christmas
