Parque is the title of a project by sound artist and musician Ricardo Jacinto, developed with instrumental contributions from Nuno Torres, Nuno Mor\u00e3o, Jo\u00e3o Pinheiro, Dino R\u00e9cio and Andr\u00e9 Sier. Earworm Versions is the recorded outcome of an exhibition and performance-installation originally presented at Culturgest, Lisbon, in 2008.<\/p>\n

The music on this album unfolds as structured improvisation within an electroacoustic framework, focusing above all on the use of textures that intertwine in dense sonic clusters and evolving harmonic constructions. The recordings derive from the sound worlds of three instrumental installations created specifically for this project by Jacinto.<\/p>\n

Glass (mirror) sonorities in the first two pieces\u2014together with a natural Doppler effect produced by a pendulum loudspeaker\u2014provide the basis for the musical compositions and underscore the central role of space in this work. These recordings may be heard as the soundscape of a territory titled Parque, where both audience and performers inhabit small architectural devices designed for the production of sound and light, reflecting an ongoing interplay between sound and environment. This spatial dimension is further enhanced by an interactive software system conceived by Andr\u00e9 Sier.<\/p>\n

The project forms a unified, synaesthetic whole, completed by live video footage (edited by Nuno Ribeiro) of the three pieces presented on this album.<\/p>\n
