The Glass Key

 

title

The Glass Key is an evolving series of concerts/installations that use geological or architecture spaces as compositional elements, turning field recordings into field performances. Collecting original recordings of volcanoes, underwater sea life, crackling of Arctic ice and outspace ionospheric signals, the field recordings are mixed with resonating drones and reverberating organs, so the listener enters a deep meditation into the mystical underworld.

The live performance became the foundation for the soundtrack of EYE OF SILENCE
