DETAILS

In musical composition, an étude is a study focusing on a certain technique, honing in on a particular element and deriving as much from it as possible. Étude: Wavering Bodies in this way is a live, real-time soundscape of a microcosm in flux. The space becomes a place for quiet meditation focusing intently on the behaviour of a singular, simple object in a changing environment. Through movement, material surface and timbre, the object speaks; augmented by repetition and multiples.
