In our, boxed, on-demand world where
accessibility and recallability rule we
can often forget the importance of the
unpredictable or the joy of true
discovery. Our lives are increasingly
shaped by systems and patterns;
downloaded, linked, and stored, that
help us live, tell us when to go outside
and what we will find when we get there.
The mystery of our every day slowly
seeps out of our lives like photograph
bled of its color by the sun. There are
fewer questions and too many answers.
The Endless Change Of Colour exists
somewhere between our future and the
mistakes and accidents weÆve made along
the way. It is a celebration of both the
system and the unexpected. Marsen JulesÆ
latest work is a generative music piece
upon a single phrase of an old jazz
record split into three audio streams.
These streams are transformed into loops
which break the original instrumentation
down into sound resembling pure waves,
harmonics and overtones.These loops play
to different time signatures to create
phasing patterns that continuously move
and dance around each other in a
constantly-evolving lattice of sound.
Despite it being based on a very strict
and limited set of rules the music
could, in theory, be endless and ever-
changing.
Here, the listenerÆs discovery is a
quiet and engaged one. Ripples and
pulses set within a field of color that
sometimes feels like water, sometimes
like air and sometimes like glass.
Electronic tones hum with warmth and the
softness of slumber. The patterns are
there, familiar to our modern ears, but
theyÆre not always what they seem. The
wandering mind steers this one along
more than the generative grid on which
it was based and The Endless Change Of
Colour becomes exactly as its title
suggests.
