FOURM set.grey Released
Austria’s most prestigious minimalist label, Non Visual Objects has just released a clutch of CD’s inlcuding the newest FOURM work, set.grey, recorded in late 2008. This is presented alongside Asher, and will be limited to 300 copies. Visit NVO website for more details, and FOURM artist profile.
set.grey is a continuation of the “set” series of microsound and generative works that began with set.neutral here on WHITE_LINE, and consists of two pieces – Occupying and Connecting, and Parametrics and Parallax. The series explores themes that were established in my interview with Italian glossy mag, Sentire Ascoltare, where I proposed a set of sonic pieces that embody the concept of sound as sculpture, a reducing principle where a body of sound is recorded with no layering or blending, and is simply presented in linear form. This challenges some of the major principles of musical orthodoxy, and re-iterates my stance as a “non musician”, presenting sounds purely as “audible art”.
