A Tone or Two

‘A Tone or Two’ comes in the form of a text score and a melodic voice work. Noticing a shift in her voice in recent years, Thams tracks how within the last decades female voices have lowered 23hz in pitch. Tuning into the shift toward more gender equality, vocal pitch is explored in relation to authority, electability, courage and rhythmicity.

The Vibrational Semantics text series explores the voice’s ability to shift seamlessly between signification and sonority, from speech sound to noise. Questions of linguistic ambiguity, embodied voicing and feeling/ meaning are investigated in relation to the place and presence of the performed voice.

Om utgiveren:

Vibrational Semantics
Vibrational Semantics focuses on the elaboration, documentation and investigation of the voice. The publications and sound works in the series explore the voice’s ability to shift seamlessly between signification and sonority, from speech sound to noise. Questions of linguistic ambiguity, embodied voicing and the feeling/ meaning are investigated in relation to the place and presence of the performed voice. So far, this has included visual scores, creative essays, interdisciplinary writing and sound works commissioned from artists, writers, performers and vocalists.

The project started as part of artist and writer Samuel Brzeski’s ongoing artistic engagement with Lydgalleriet, who funded the first series of commissioned text works, but is now an independent press run by Samuel.
