LOCUTION STREAMS Drawing Mini-Exhibition

'Locution Streams'

Drawing Mini-Exhibition

by 

Sova Locus

Locution Streams is a project that explores the relationship between art and viewer, between interpretation and perception and how language can be defined. The project was hung in the Ramp at TCOTA, featuring two large A2 pen drawings along with 20 A4 size drawings. 

The main concept behind this portion of the project is to consider how 5 symbols can be interpreted as geometric drawings. 15 geometric drawings were created in relation to the 5 symbol pages, and the two A2 geometric drawings acted as a kind of mascot for the Locution Streams project in general. 

Pictures below show the displayed drawings. 

COLLECTED SCHOOL DRAWINGS 'Drone Texture'

These are a few rough photos of a few of my drawings which featured as my folio for a drawing class that I did. Eventually I'll try and get some more higher quality photos, but here are some basic ones for now.

'Drone Texture' was created through exploration of a site-specific area in the art school. My site featured a lot of vents and air conditioning, meaning that there was a droning hum in the room. I utilized this sound to create these drawings, which are attempts and experiments in texturing. The drawings were accompanied by a basic sound piece, which featured layered recordings of the sites sounds.

'KALEIDOSCOPIC CRUSADES' by ARCANUM AZF

Arcanum AZF is a recently created duo of me and a close friend and fantastic visual artist Dajjal Wolfgang our first release on Bandcamp is 'Kaleidoscopic Crusades', available from the link above. The release shows off the basic conceptual themes of the duo: improvised recording, the usage and abusage of electronics and FX, and an interest and exploration into themes of the esoteric, both historically and visually.

'Kaleidoscopic Crusades' was recorded in one afternoon on Wolfgang's coffee table. Later, I spent some time mixing and editing the recordings together into four distinctive tracks. My aim with mixing 'Kaleidoscopic Crusades' was to mesh the sounds of both players together in to one coherent sonic wave of frequencies, feedback and sound.

'Barbed Topiary' EP by Shallower

The debut EP of my noise project Shallower!

Beside appearances on a few compilations, I put some effort into wrangling together many drafts and demos of Shallower sound for an EP. 'Barbed Topiary' shows a direct influence from the genres of black metal and power electronics over the course of five tracks.

It would be smart to remind the listener that my interest doesn't really lie in 'music', but more in what could be deemed 'sound'.

SHALLOWER RELEASE: Re-imagining of ‘Total Sex’ by Whitehouse features on tribute compilation

'What’s Better Than (Total) Sex?’
by Shallower

USA label Throne of Bael records put together this compilation of covers and re-imagined improvisations, songs and compositions originally by English noise makers Whitehouse entitled  'A Cunt Like You: A Tribute to Whitehouse' in 2018. For those not familiar with Whitehouse, they are considered to be one of the fore runners and thus one of the most influential 'noise' or 'harsh noise' or 'power electronics' groups in the history of experimental music.

Lots of artists contributed recordings, with many sticking to Whitehouse classics such as 'Wriggle Like a Fucking Eel' and the title track of the compilation. I decided to delve a bit deeper and contributed a sonic re-imagining of the Whitehouse track 'Total Sex' which featured on the album of the same name from 1980.

Beside the digital release, Geisha Sun Cookies released a limited run of 30 CDs, available from Japan. (https://www.discogs.com/Various-A-Cunt-Like-You-A-Tribute-to-Whitehouse/release/12358170)
