Lines Over San Juan Generating Station. 2019.
Lines - San Juan Generating Station Speaks - 2019
A meditation on vibrations transmitted from power lines running out of the San Juan Generating Station in Northern New Mexico. This work explores new concepts of cartography. Looking to lines in landscape, this image is recontextualized as an experimental music score, workshopped with musicians and performed.
Landscape creates frequency. A perfectly complex system of notation that orchestrates the way plants root, the way water flows, the way tectonic plates shift. It is possible to witness these frequencies - through light, through color, through geography, through the ensemble of sounds audible. We experience those within the human sonic perception, as well as those too low or high for us to hear. Human beings have embedded landscapes with resonant characters, resonant actors. This body of work explores a contextualizing of landscapes as score. An exploration of resonant affect.
