Discrete Archive was created for music, writing and artefacts that explore quietness. This can mean many things, we like music that allows for space, presents sonority as object and is concerned with the materiality of sound, sound as thing. We occupy a world of noise, discerning meaning in this sea of noise is increasingly difficult. We invite you to contemplate the world around you through stillness and quiet that sound can provide a focus for.
- Listen to quiet things loudly
- Listen for the smallest element in the piece
- Listen for the largest element in the piece
- Listen for the interaction between object
- Listen for the space that the sound is presented in
-
Listen to the objects that surround your listening
- Listen to the whole
- Listen to the individual
- Listen for the smallest change
- Listen for the elements that do not change
