Ben Vida Damaged Particulates
sound performance, italian premiére
Damaged Particulates is a composition by Ben Vida for fixed and live electronics. Organized into a number of short movements this new work derives its compositional strategy from the concept of 'Particulate Systems Construction'. Rather than building up multi-voiced sound events Damaged Particulates emphasizes the morphology and spatialization of single and dual voiced sonic particulates. These particulates are ordered and aggregated to create stark juxtapositions. This process is occasionally disrupted when four voices are presented in parallel, all interrelated through a shared system of control sources. Though minimal in elements this composition is at once sonically dense, grossly visceral and disjunctively rhythmic. Sound objects take on an almost physical presence within the performance space allowing spatialization to become a compositional material, and discordant sonic composites act to complicate traditional compositional logic.
