When you listen to commercial radio,
there is only one or two atmospheres.
Songs are created for only one or two atmosphere.
They are either celebrating happiness or sadness.
That is it.
That is why I don’t listen to them, simply it is boring. Nothing more.
It is waste of time, unless you need to celebrate someone else’s happiness; Birthday maybe.
And this is the reason I want to create sound piece and listen to.
Every time, you listen to 4’33”, it is different.
It is current, it is changing, never the same.
That is why sound art is existing.
It is floating somehow.
Constantly changing so that hard to memorise. It means it has a pattern that not easily recognised. So that my brain can be free.
I love sound, making sound, listening sound and singing, playing instruments and composing music are only part of it.
When sound art try to collaborate or it has a visual influence, it starts to fade away.
It no longer has the freedom, the possibility.
The possibility that can be anyone’s or anything’s atmosphere.
It fails to fall special atmosphere and become songs from radio in a gallery.
It is sad.
I love sound.
Dear Peter Zumthor,
