Kolokoksta
Last copies** Edition of 200 ** Born in 1989, Johana Beaussart’s background lays in the contexts of fine art, initially film and animation before being drawn toward the creative potential and complex meanings carried by the human voice. For much of her career, the Paris based artist’s output has remained within a practice more closely aligned with performative action and sound art, focusing on orality, the structures of discourses that feed a collective memory and a history of speech, illusion, …

The Sound Sculptures of Bernard and François Baschet (Book)
This book is a classic in the history of art. In it François Baschet recounts the research and creation of his Sound Sculptures, with which he began a pioneering career combining art and science, sculpture and music. The willingness to share his findings inspired another breakthrough: participatory exhibitions, spaces where everyone could explore and play with sound. François Baschet’s conception of acoustics—a method of understanding the functional relations between form, matter, action and sou…
Contes de sons qui se prennent pour un autre
Surface noise is the inspiration for this recording by Anri Sala. “I wanted to compose a soundtrack that mostly sounds, when played on the vinyl, like one is only listening to the physical attributes of the medium itself: the sound of the static crackling of the vinyl played by the stylus. As if it was contact music. However, in the course of the composition…the crackling starts to evolve, gradually taking the shape of other sounds. One hears hints of percussion and sometimes even distant sounds…
Instruments Inside Out
In her exhibition In a Perpetual Now, Rosa Barba fills the modernist spaces of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin with sculptures, films and projectors deployed on an architectonic structure (Blind Volumes / Backstein, 2021) modelled after Mies van der Rohe’s plans for his unrealized Brick Country House project (1924). Creating a maze of lines and surfaces around the gallery, this streamlined metal form sets the stage—one architecture encapsulated in another—for the artist’s activation of a poly…

ÆTER

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…

Greatest Hits
** Edition of 300 ** Since the early 1990’s, Marina Rosenfeld has produced a substantial archive of acetate test-pressing records, or dubplates, which track across her practice - forming the basis for both improvised music, installations, and scores structured by the politics and aesthetics of turntablism and the material distortions of mechanical sound reproduction. Rosenfeld’s works thread into each other and unfold gradually in various musical forms and sites through their reproduction and in…
Gravøl
Tip! *250 copies limited dition* "Gravøl meditates on two extremes, each of which seemingly remain determined to present their reveries without affectation or even play. The first side, 'Grievance Studies’, is a disquieting elixir that takes components from the archive and previous live-actions and builds into a harrowing primordial soup. The logic of this piece would suggest that it leads to its object. Löwenbrück instead renders it impermissible. The second side, ‘Prinzendorf Requiem (für H…
