Three pieces by Dr Louise Harris have been made available under the title Auroculis in ‘expanded audio’ format by the international label deepwhitesound, dedicated to the free dissemination of innovative, experimental work. Auroculis can be downloaded here.
Auroculis – which includes the pieces fuzee, ilsonilus:1 and pletten – marks a further step in Louise’s pioneering work in the field of visual-aural composition. In Louise’s words, “these three pieces are all generative audiovisual works that investigate relationships between sonic form, through time, and visual form, through space. In pletten and ilsonilus:1, these investigations also include the nature of the spaces in which they are presented, as they are intended for expanded audiovisual installation format – pletten on two opposite screens in a small space and ilsonilus:1 in either a cylindrical or fulldome projection format.”
