Taas tuli tyhjäks I & II Images generated from sound, 2013 By Abe Pazos Solatie

In 2007 Abe produced and performed a 83 minute long sound composition, in Mallorca first and later in Berlin. He describes the piece as a “movie without images”. It is an experimental sound journey that combines scenes full of beauty, nature, money and destruction. The track includes sounds created using traditional musical instruments like the piano, violin or guitar, with others produced by everyday objects like elevators, vacuum cleaners, pots and fridges, field recordings from different European cities, and digitally synthesized sounds.

To generate the images displayed at Kauniaisten Kaupunkitalo exhibition, Abe spent weeks writing programs that analyze the six year old sound composition to then produce curves of different shapes and colors using rules he imagined. Previous generative works created by Abe have been rich in randomness, but this one differs, as randomness is completely absent and the aspect of each curve is directly driven by the properties of the music. This complex process attempts to make “Look at my music” (the exhibition title) something that can be actually experienced.
