Forget-me-nots (Modular 2024)

 

 



The bulk of the source material used in “Forget-me-nots” are recordings made from six to nearly twenty years ago. They are all forgotten in some way, either that I had made them at all and were discovered lurking on hard disks, or that I remembered having them but have no idea now how they were made. Most of the recordings were isolated sounds then stored away as examples or because they might be of use one day. Some were derived from completed tracks, now isolated and re-contextualised.

Curating and arranging the sounds for this new work led to thinking about my composer memory (which is very much on decline) and the relationship between the artist and their creations over time.
