NOISE DEBRIS ART, six further steps up...
POST MORTEM ANTHROPOLOGY. As a matter of fact, updated approaches to technologically oriented solutions for death management must be intrin- sically considered to have a cultural bias, where social and religious rituals have to be incorporated into innovative automations and creative breackthroughs. Floating, in some way dangerously, on a delicate edge in the crionics option, where freezing techniques are employed in order to stop body decay just around the moment of physiological death, aiming to reach a (still undefined) future where the pathological conditions wich have caused the death event may be reversed: as well as opening endless debates on its direct moral, social and medical implications, this practice is bound to attact interest from many other perspectives, drawing questions and analysis into its unexplored territories. In this specific audio-essay, our point of view is directed towards the sensorial phenomenology of this xenomutation of human life: at wich level is perception (of any kind) retained/altered in the frozen subject? Do sound waves play any role in the maintenance of the crionic environment? Our theory is that acoustic communication could still be somewhere present between the suspended animation status and the external environment, contributing to a kind of extreme slow-frame development in the residual (immaterial but logistically still identifiable?) nervous system activities. In our usual pragmatic fashion, we have herewith attempted another Noise Debris Art test, using tape as medium and the above mentioned hypothesis as the conceptual arena: we have targeted our sound emission to definite fragments of the process, thus re-creating in-lab conditions via frequencies simulations. This has brought us to acoustic results wich may be accessed if willing to enter/contact unexpected body "metabolisms" in this travelling beyond/ around the iced gate: executive summaries of these attempts are now avaiable in the format of this tape.
