luca forcucci: fog horns

This is #11 in Sub Rosa's limited edition Framework series -- an extension of their Concrete Electronics Noise series. Luca Forcucci is a bi-national Swiss and Italian composer and artist. His work observes the perceptive properties/relations of sound and space (and vice versa) through sound installations, visuals, compositions, and performances. In order to explore the field of possibilities for sound in a context of music and art as an experience, the works converge with dance, digital performance, poetry, architecture and neuroscience. In this context, he is interested by perception and consciousness. His compositions have spanned through the years from electronic music, which was produced by Al Comet from The Young Gods, to field recordings collected around the world in urban contexts like São Paulo, Shanghai, San Francisco, and natural ones like the Amazon forest or the Swiss Alps, to name a few. "After 12 hours of flight and some sleep deprivation, I landed in San Francisco in Spring 2011. Because of or thanks to my state of consciousness, I heard a distinct and beautiful sound. It took me a while to understand if I was really hearing it or dreaming it: the sound of the fog horns." --Forcucci
