fourth session: november 7 and 8
During these two days, I have revised and improved the permanences made during the first session in October, especially two of them that seemed too static.

third session: october 24 and 25
During these two days three new „illuminations“ were composed and one of those composed in the previous session was revised and improved.

first session: september 26 and 27
On 26 and 27 September, the sound illumination of the Romanesque ossuary in Perschen finally began. During these two days, numerous tests were carried out to experiment the acoustic response of the space and the possiblity to reach the so called „diffuse sound fields“. The result of these tests, which consisted of spreading sound fragments…

Charnel house in Perschen
A sonic illumination project of the Romanesque charnel house in Perschen, Bavaria, is scheduled to begin in September 2023. It involves multiple sound tests to determine an optimal sound composition that enhances the location’s spiritual ambience. Initial impressions suggest that the sound intervention significantly intensifies contemplation of the religious images within the space.
