disquiet junto

I recently joined disquiet junto on soundcloud. It's a group like no other- every week we get an assignment to create a track starting out with a set of constraints- yes, it's musical oulipo! Before I was only a listener,always finding something interesting and unique, but now I can't wait for Thursdays.I may not post everything I do, but I just do it. There is no other way. Feeling honoured that Marc Weidenbaum, the person located in San Fransisco who makes it all happen- he is teaching at the Academy of Arts and writing a book on Aphex Twin among many other things- highlighted some of my work on the page. There you can read more - very exciting projects! http://disquiet.com/2012/10/03/natalia-kamia/ I am looking forward to the activities coming up- exhibition events and publications and to the book http://disquiet.com/2012/08/31/saw2for33third/ Found a wonderful passage on timelessness and time- how an ambient track incorporates a pulse " to create an illusion of time or illuminate time as illusion". I am writing this while navigating the page- one last thing- a post on the current exhibition at Bonniers Konsthall, More Than Sound! With works by Michael von Hausswolff, Scanner and many other artists I admire, the question of sound and arts occupying my mind ever since I started making projects. http://disquiet.com/2012/10/21/scanner-hiss-concrete/
