from a rockand abandoned objects in the street speakof mothers,
consequences, heartbreak, wild camping, what-Berlin-used-to-be, and torn

lessons in magic (for free!), and a true story that really did happen to a
friend of a friend at hermannplatz…“*

Un/natural Field Recordings / Natural Overdubs: Workshop will culminate in
a public concert by the particpants. We will form small ensembles and
perform scores, using sound palettes created during the workshop.

ABOUT
Un/natural Field Recordings// Natural Overdubs is a workshop which utilizes
urban, architectural, and natural urban spaces as a source for cultivating,
processing, and over-dubbing sound. This workshop is open to artists of any
medium (sound art, experimental music, performance, dance, visual art,
etc.) who are interested in experimenting with sound. We will work
individually and collaboratively, as an entire as well as in small groups.

During the workshop we will utilize the U Bahn and S Bahn as a source to
cultivate sound material, overdub these recordings, and create
scores/structures.

GOAL
The goal of the workshop is to experiment with unorthodox methods of
recording and processing sound; and to create personal sound palette, which
can be used for experimentation, composition, and performance.

Un/natural Field Recordings// Natural Overdubs is based on Bilwa’s personal
practice, Un/natural Fields, in which he cultivates human-made, digital,
analogue, and mechanical sounds, as well as many other incidental sounds
which make up a city’s soundscape. Bilwa has recorded on metros and other
indoor and outside public spaces, throughout Europe, N. America, and E.
Asia. These found sounds, which are referred to as un/natural field
recordings, are over-dubbed (played back and re-recorded) in different
locations, with various sonic qualities following time-based or site
relative scores. This technique offers a means of effecting, or processing,
the original recordings as well as combining sounds which are unique to the
different locations. The result is a palette of complex sounds which
contain various qualities as well as cultural references, combined by both
choice and chance. These recording are arranged in multi-track sound
palettes which, combined with sine-tones, are used for experimental
compositions; employing techniques associated with Musique Concrète,
electronic music, generative music, and auditory illusion including:
phasing, oscillation, binaural beating, cancellation, etc. Using no plug-in
effects, sound processing is achieved by multi-track playback and
spatialization.

Un/natural Field Recordings
Audio recordings comprised of man-made, digital, analogue, and mechanical
sounds, as well as many other incidental sounds, which make up a city’s
soundscape in public spaces. This process can be done systematically,
intentionally, or at random; using various quality levels of recording
devices. During the workshop we will create and execute scores, structures,
and choreographies for recording.

Natural Overdubs
Recordings are played back, in the same space as the original recording
and/or in various spaces with different sound qualities, using the
recording device, phones, and portable speakers; essentially “overdubbing”
the recording with the sound event happening in the current space. We will
experiment with recorder – speaker relationships, alternating the
foreground and background sounds; as well as utilizing a spaces sound
qualities (reverberation, reflection, echo, noise, etc.). This process can
be looked at as a sound intervention/concert and/or a recording session
which utilizes public spaces.

Un/natural Field Recordings//Natural Overdubs: Workshop began in Kaunas, LT
and has since taken place at
Kirtimų kultūros centras,Vilnius,LT Liepaja University, LV, and in Berlin,
DE at Liebig12, Euphonia Festival, Centrum Neukolln, and Backsteinboot
/Spandau.
