New podcast with sound artist Ji Youn Kang <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-320-ji-youn-kang>
https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-320-ji-youn-kang Ji Youn Kang’s abstract compositions are infused with her personal blend of Western experimental sound and Korean ritual music. This hybrid background also seeps into her live performances, where she explores the primitive and empowering rhythmic structures of Korean shamanism –often building up from slow to fast– and noisy sound through an amalgam of handmade analogue devices, acoustic instruments, and digital signal processing techniques. In this podcast, Ji talks about Korean ritual music, perfect 5ths and nature, resonating objects, noise, self-built instruments, uncertainty and tension, Wave Field Synthesis, and strategies to engage online audiences in meaningful communication. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-320-ji-youn-kang> Timeline: 00:00 Creation comes from work 03:21 Intro 08:39 Korean shamanism and perfection 17:31 Finding the identity of sounds 26:39 Sympathetic resonances 37:26 Noise and pureness 43:22 Uncertainty and live performance 48:46 Wave Field Synthesis System 54:39 Composing for WFSS 59:13 Spatializing space online 1:04:57 Streaming art Music by Ji Youn Kang.
