Auditorium is a live sound collaboration
between Seattle artist Yann Novak and
Victoria artist Jamie Drouin. The two
artists first met on a panel discussion
hosted by SeattleÆs 2006 Decibel
Festival at the Henry Art Gallery, and
both immediately recognized a connection
between their two bodies of soundwork;
using altered field recordings and
sharing a mutual interest in exploring
the ability of sound to alter the
atmosphere of spaces we inhabitù
physically and emotionally.
Two months later, the two artists met
once again at the Henry Art Gallery to
perform Auditorium, which uses the
performance space itself as a sonic
point of departure. Recordings made by
Novak of the empty space were amplified
and layered to create a singular,
modulating drone which enhanced the
particular æfingerprintÆ of the space.
DrouinÆs approach was to define the
space with a more scalpel-like hand,
inserting sonic pings and rhythms which
called attention to the depth and scale
of the auditorium, and to interject more
textural sounds which would
occassionally push the listeners
attention outside of the building,
reminding them of the thin membrane
between the inside/outside worlds.
