Habitat - I


Habitat - I is a sound piece composed by sound artist Marcelo Armani for a hexaphonic installation. This first edition features clippings characteristic of natural environments that portray the movements or cycles of water. They are sounds and noises of an acoustic landscape in which, the sound events linked to it, amplify micro universes, sometimes bringing references to percussive elements. There is the presence of the sound mass of the flow of a river that, at a given moment in the composition, unites in unison with the sound frequencies of the leaves that are cradled by the wind. These sound events were collected by the artist himself with the aid of contact microphones, hydrophone and cardioid and supercardioid directional microphones.
