AMMA ATERIA

CONCUSSSSION is an on-going study originated from an impact to the orbital and frontal bone. Sonic movements continue to develop over the course of recovery. Utilizing low-frequency binaural beats, brainwave entrainment, equal-loudness contour, and time shifts as focal point and sound palette. This work takes the forms of sound compositions, recordings, visual scores, performances, and time-based generated projections, as documents that track the changes of my neurological responses to DELTA, THETA, ALPHA, BETA, GAMMA waves. The four ‘SSSS’ symbolize a period of auditory disorientation encountered, such as instances of prolonged frequency extension of sibilance in human speech. Psychological transference takes place as various pink noise of broken glass verses rain merges into one and other. The compositions are reflections of experiences with stillness, unconsciousness, and auditory hallucinations, which became starting points towards levitation, transformation, and neurogenesis. How does one's recovery shift the effects of collective resilience?
