AP​/​MSM

by Infant

about

The two pieces that make up AP/MSM were constructed over a period of about two years. In both these pieces, recording and sampling are used to recognize and construct patterns from the mass of sonic material and associations present not only in the web’s archives, feeds, and stacks but in my own memory and personal history.

"Archive poem" was originally intended to be sourced entirely from digital fragments and ephemera found on the Internet Archive. As the project developed, though, I began to include material from a wide range of sources including social media, voice memos, field recordings and midi composition. At its core, the piece is an attempt to consciously digest the sonic material of my digital life.

"Midwestern sacred music" is built from recordings of Catholic masses and contemporary Catholic hymns found primarily through YouTube. Its structure loosely mimics the form of a Catholic liturgy. The piece is meant to act as both a critique of contemporary religious spaces and an attempt to transform the sonic material of these spaces into something genuinely personal and meditative.
