LINE_063

Formerly released as a now sold out limited edition DVD in November 2013, this album is now available (Dec 2022) as a sonic document exclusively on Bandcamp, accompanied by streaming videos.

From silicon oil quantum analogues and droplet-traced cosmic rays to the computational hydrodynamics of sonicated protocells, Liquified Sky documents a series of performative experiments that depart from the antiquated cult of the illusory solid-state image. The first two tracks feature Mucilaginous Omniverse, where sonically propelled oil droplets assemble into polygonal formations and orbital structures. Periodically, these palpitating spheroids undergo self-interference, evocative of wave-particle duality.

In Hydroacoustic Study, a simulated rheological environment reveals evolving waveforms, protocellular bubbles, and menisci that grow and exhibit behavior in direct response to sound. The final track documents the artwork Memory Vapor, sonified by the legendary Asmus Tietchens. Traversing the frigid laser-lit vapor within a cloud chamber, subatomic messengers, known as cosmic rays, macroscopically disclose their identity and the plenum underlying the empirical void.
