Fragments Accumulate with Hiroko Komiya premiered at Convent de Sant Agusti in Barcelona on 11/21. This was my second trip to this wonderful space, and it did not disappoint. This year Hiroko and I were part of a larger audiovisual festival which addressed how artists are dealing with the climate crisis. The festival link is here . I was really honored to be part of this.

We both introduced a new set of sounds and I incorporated some new super 8 images as well. The set lasted a little over 40 minutes. A fantastic crowd and response. The sounds, pace, mood, images all seemed to flow together well. A beautiful experience. We documented the set and the rehearsals, so that material will be available in some capacity in the future. Quite a few new ideas emerged from this show too. Massive thanks to Convent de Sant Agusti and the entire team. We hope to be going back soon.

Really looking forward to heading back to Barcelona for Fragments Accumulate with Hiroko Komiya. Details below:

Fragments accumulate is an audiovisual concert performed by sound artist Hiroko Komiya  (voices, objects, lap harp, zither…) and film and sound artist Chris H. Lynn (objects, field recordings, piano, image manipulation digital and Super 8).

Explorations through soundscapes where memory, contemplation and poetry are conjured. A performance where organic sonorities pass through – the objects struck, the reciting voice, the piano…- and the power that results from the resonances that Komiya and Lynn seek, manipulate and transform. Here is a link to the Convent.

More details soon.
