about

"Everything but Signal" uses solely found sounds of the internet and signals of communication within our digital infrastructure. It reflects on the forms of media that we consume and inhabit, i.e. from traditional mass media to social media. The composition aims to transform and arrange the intense sounds of social media notifications to arrive at a new perception of these materials. “The term marks a perceptive reality of sound as such, as distinguished from the modes of its production and transmission," Schaeffer said about acousmatics. "The new phenomenon of telecommunications and the massive diffusion of messages exists only in relation to and as a function of a fact that has been rooted in human experience from the beginning: natural, sonorous communication.”
