Sabisha Friedberg’s 2 LP The Hant Variance was recorded at EMPAC with Peter Edwards in a custom-tuned environment using advanced multi-channel recording techniques to capture a configuration of spatialized sound sources. Combining granular synthesis, analogue synthesizers, tone oscillators and field recordings, the composition is comprised of three movements. The low-end bass, which was recorded live with a subwoofer configuration that allowed for rapid directional shifts, serves as a sonic armature for the piece. Sustained pure tones shift minimally and the allocation of sound engenders a sense of aural disorientation. This landscape, with the premise of summoning a new phantom or haunted sonic space, exists in an interstitial, albeit present zone.
Born in Johannesburg South Africa, Sabisha Friedberg’s composition, performance and installation work draws on the phenomenological and phantasmagorical, exploring perceptual delineation of space through sound, and low-end experiential thresholds. She has performed and presented installations widely in Western and Eastern Europe, Russia, Japan, and the US, and recently received commissions through residencies at ISSUE Project Room, EMPAC, and The Clocktower Gallery. In 2013 she presented the solo exhibition “Levitation” at Audio Visual Arts. Friedberg received her MFA from Bard College following undergraduate studies at San Francisco Art Institute. Peter Edwards is an American artist and musician living in Holland, best known for his DIY experimental electronics website casperelectronics. His work has been presented internationally at venues including The MIT Media Lab, Transmediale, Dutch Electronic Arts Festival, New York Electronic Arts Festival, and Performa, among others.
L’artiste sonore Sabisha Friedberg travaille le son comme la sculpture, un découpage de formes dans une masse de fréquences et dans l’espace. Son travail explore d’un point de vue phénoménologique et phantasmagorique l’espace dont elle tente de tracer le contour sonore. The hant variation a été réalisé lors d’une résidence à l’EMPAC (Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center) à Troy dans l’état de New York, avec l’aide de Peter Edwards pour capter la spatialisation multicanaux. Synthése granulaire, synthétiseurs analogiques, oscillateurs et enregistrements de terrains dans une pièce découpée en deux grands mouvements. Une base créée à partir de fréquences basses sur laquelle se déplacent imperceptiblement des fréquences phantomatiques dans la création d’un paysage désorienté. Recommandé. Limité et numéroté à 500 copies.
