Edu Comelles will develop during his residency at LABoral Paisajes Imposibles, a generative sound installation that aims to show an imaginary landscape. This soundscape is composed of countless environments, sounds or combinations of sounds taken from various sources. All of them compose a frieze organized from a very specific sound mark: the bell rings of different villages in Asturias and close to the Ebro River Delta.
Paisajes Imposibles is a sound collage, a recreation of an imaginary landscape created with bits and pieces of other realities with the goal of exploring new creative ways and new formats of sound landscapes.
The computer system that activates this made-up sound landascape is a random device that translates the changes occurred in a 24-hour period into an interval of two hours. A clock created from different bell ringing from different villages determines the time zones.
After his residency at LABoral, the artist will continue the development of his work in Lo Pati, Centre d'Art de les Terres de l'Ebre, which made this call jointly with LABoral. The installation will be on show at Eufònic - Mostra d'Art Sonor Visual i de les Terres de l'Ebre in the first days of July.
