Sound walk

long shadow

DB Amorin's long shadow is a 40-minute "soundride" on the MAX Red Line in Portland, OR inspired by the sustained yearning to revisit former homes during the COVID-19 lockdown, a longing which over time became its own interior landscape to traverse.

A Wooden Floor Walk

The ‘Wooden Floor Walk’ took place on 23 August 2024 in a large group house on the edge of the forest in Biel/Bienne (Switzerland). The house is largely made of wood. 18 participants crossed the room very slowly (15 minutes). A wooden floor sound piece was created.

An Introduction to Soundscape Composition

This in-person course hosted by Open City Docs is for beginners looking to work creatively and develop their skills in field recording to produce their own soundscape composition. We will look at fundamental theoretical and conceptual debates in the area, the basics of field recording, acoustic ecology and soundwalking, how to get started with Reaper

Echoed Chamber originated from a jam session. Being fascinated by the primitive sounds we made, we did it again in a cave, recorded and processed the sounds to recreate the acoustics there, and made a sample pack for anyone to experience it anywhere.

The origin of Echoed Chamber dates back to a late night sound jamming session with friends using random objects such as cups, metal pipes, and water buckets, etc. As our mental state collapsing after some time, we unintentionally started tapping and humming, initiating an exploration of the sounds. Unexpectedly, we discovered that the sounds emerging without any planning were not only fascinating but also brought a sense of relaxation and pure joy. Therefore, we decided to try it again, this time in a cave. There, we sampled many interesting sounds from our jam session, processed them to recreate the unique acoustic effects of the cave, and made a sample pack.

The concept of this work is based on shared resources. It can be experienced alone at home, or with a group of friends outdoor. By scanning the QR code, you can access our sound pack, paring with any DAWs you have to experience the magical jamming moments in the cave.

I believe the most precious part of this work lies not only in experiencing the cave’s unique soundscape, but also in the energy exchange in the moment between individuals or between a person and the space.

One thought on “Echoed Chamber

driftsinging

Drawing with (vocal) sound in response to place while passing through place. Driftsinging borrows from the Situationist Drift, and Baudelaire’s flâneur. Driftsinging also relates to the process of ‘sounding,’ the sonic measuring of distance and depth that locates position in place and ‘echo location’, the examination of place through sonic reflection and refraction, resonance and echo.
