this edition of framework:afield, entitled industries has been produced in germany by regular contributor d. l. lutz.
Earscape „Industries“
This earscape is meant as a sound memorial to the questionable western thinking of progress that has spread worldwide despite all cultural differences. It captures industrial and technical noise, antique machinery and fully automated production lines, turbines and laboratories, active building sites and industrial ghost towns…
The sounds are composed to a „symphony“ with three sections in mind, roughly twenty minutes long each: andante – largo expressivo – andante con moto.
What you listen to here, is the intangible backdrop to the laziness of our civilized life, but also the display of the intelligence and pride of our species – mere noise thus becomes a sweet body of sound, speaking of our self-defence against helplessness and fate.
D. L. Lutz, born 1969 in Germany, is a practising architect, writer and sound artist living in Berlin.
