Being a natural substance, it has multiple benefits for the environment: - Longevity and Durability: Products made of natural stone are very strong and can last for ages or even decades. Because of its durability, there is less of an environmental impact from the need for regular replacements.

- Low Maintenance: Natural stone installation requires less maintenance than other materials like marble, wood, etc, thus only little chemicals and cleaning agents are required. As a result, the entire environmental footprint is reduced.

[Tracklist]

sound becomes word becomes sound

a certain lack of consistency

Excerpt: https://soundcloud.com/zappak/zappak-018

Both tracks were recorded live at Underjorden in Malmö. Mastered by Andreas Tilliander at Repeatle Photo by Kota Sake Thanks to: Andreas Tilliander, Kota Sake, Pär Thörn, Karin Askagården, Maria Lindh, Brian Nolen and Magnus Thierfelder Tzotzis for supportive and critical eyes and ears.

Carl Lindh is a sound artist in Sweden, and he usually performs using primitive electronic devices. This work includes two recordings of his performances. In these recordings he also uses primitive sound devices, however, their sound variations are rich that there are delicate noises emanating from the equipment, repetitive rattling sounds, feedback-like sounds, sometimes metallic and sometimes harsh noises there. And by delicately controlling sometimes multiple sounds simultaneously and sometimes just one sound, he creates multi-layered sound spaces and evolving flows.

Carl Lindhはスウェーデンのサウンド・アーティストで、普段はプリミティヴな電子機器をもちいた演奏をおこなっている。本作ではそんな彼の演奏の録音2つを記録したものである。 ここでの演奏でもプリミティヴな機器をもちいており、しかしながら鳴らされる音のバリエーションは非常に豊かである。機器から発せられる繊細なノイズの音、カタカタという反復、ハウリングのように鳴る音、ときに金属的でときにハーシュなノイズ。あるときには複数の音を同時に、またあるときにはたったひとつの音を繊細にコントロールすることで、多層的な音の空間や展開のある流れを創出している。

Carl Lindh

Carl Lindh is an artist based in Malmö, Sweden. Through a diverse range of mediums, practices and forms of presentation he explores themes and subjects such as listening, improvisation, site specificity, time, slowness and stone. His recorded works are mostly distributed in handmade and very limited editions. He often collaborates with other artists and musicians on short and long term projects one of them being with the Swedish poet and musician Pär Thörn. Carl Lindh operates from his studio Underjorden (the Underworld) in Malmö where he also organises semi-public listening events of different kinds. He is also the co-director of SIGNAL – Center for Contemporary Art in Malmö.

【Reviews】 Noise Not Music: Unless I’m missing out on even more than I thought, listening with the tips of my fingers is Carl Lindh’s first solo full-length. The Malmö-based sound artist has released a small handful of material, mostly as splits with various Swedish noise acts (including a C30 that pairs a Pär Thörn collaboration on the A side with a Heinz Hopf ripper on the B), but this handsome CD on Tokyo small-batch label zappak feels definitive. Two lengthy live tracks feature Lindh’s tabletop potpourri of devices and circuits, which he nimbly controls with simple touches and taps. The infamous “cracked everyday electronics” of legendary Swiss duo Voice Crack are a clear influence, not just on the approach but also on the music itself, which hums and buzzes with both mechanical dispassion and natural fluidity. Neither “sound becomes word becomes sound” nor “a certain lack of consistency” mine soundscapes as obtuse or oblique as Möslang and Guhl’s uneasy improvisations, though; there’s something strangely accessible about the sound Lindh is experimenting with here, something that’s especially apparent when the vocal elements crop up. I have no idea if they’re his contributions in the moment or preloaded samples being triggered just like the rest of the electromagnetic haze—I lean toward the former because of how unstructured yet deliberate they feel. His description of another recording applies here as well: “There are no big gestures in this performance. Instead I let the sounds perform. I let them fill the room and resonate with it. I listen and I follow. Loud continuous sounds create a sensation of comfort within me. It makes my mind empty and my body calm.”(written by Jack Davidson) https://noisenotmusic.com/2024/09/28/review-carl-lindh-listening-with-the-tips-of-my-fingers-zappak-sep-1/

Vital Weekly: It seems I missed out on a few releases by the Japanese Zappak label. This new CD by Carl Lindh is their 18th release. I reviewed a CDR by Lindh before in Vital Weekly 907, and I have no idea how one sounded. I read my old review while playing this neww release and wrote him working “with hearing-aid devices, paper, controlled feedback, record player (spinning ‘Sounds From Insects’ from the 1960), effect pedals and PA”. As per information for this new one, Zappak writes, “he also uses primitive sound devices. However, their sound variations are rich in that there are delicate noises emanating from the equipment, repetitive rattling sounds, feedback-like sounds, sometimes metallic and sometimes harsh noises. And by delicately controlling multiple sounds simultaneously and sometimes just one sound, he creates multi-layered sound spaces and evolving flows.” In this case, I see the title as a technique of using his fingers to control and manipulate devices and objects. Straight from the opening piece, ‘Sound Becomes Word Becomes Sound,’ he starts with feedback and noise, but it’s different from your average storm box manipulator. There is a tactile approach in his music, which is controlled and uncontrolled simultaneously. In ‘A Certain Lack Of Consistency’, ten minutes longer than the other one, 30 in total, he continues this approach, and at fifty minutes, this is, sonically, quite a burden on the ears. Maybe because Lindh avoids easy noise, it is all a bit much. Even when, at one point, he uses his voice, it sounds like good old fashioned power electronics; it’s quite funny, but still a lot to carry through in one go. In terms of noise and something different, this is a great release, a kind of highly brutal musique concrète. (written by Frans de Waard) https://www.vitalweekly.net/number-1462/

This Forest... if I even have to choose between such an amazing castle and cosy and warm city like Arendelle, I would have chosen the Forest without hesitation despite all Arendelle's benefits. Arendelle world is not complete without a raw wild and free beauty of the Forest that guards the Kingdom from the North like an ancient mythic giant keeping the border between the worlds.

A colonnade of birches with snow-white trunks, their crowns shelter people and animals like a breathing tent. Winds and Glaciers sing songs. Ferns and flowers are like a soft fragrant carpet. Ancient stones and mystical signs talking about your great destiny. The infinite tundra of the pink, ginger and white reindeer mosses and lichens. Caravans of reindeer and the sheltering triangles of kotas. Berries, autumn leaves and wild honey. Glacial caves full of pristine magic. Freedom. Memory. Knowledge. The dance of Nature. A blessing of the spirits that allows you not to worry about fire, hot water or food, anything. Inspiration and divine Sight. How far can we go? There is no horizon, just follow the Northern Lights and keep going North.

[kasarawolf]

When most people are all warm and snug in their homes, and out of the frigid elements that mother nature has inflicted upon the world, one man is out in the middle of it all. Preferring the dead of night to take his strolls when everyone and everything is asleep, the stillness of a world frozen over with a blanket of sparkling white, settles his tortured mind after a less than enjoyable day at the Time Patrol. He finds delight in the sharp bite of the frosty air nipping at his skin, as he sits himself on an old stone bench.

Though most people tend to avoid being out in this kind of weather, Kota thoroughly adores the wintertime and all it has to offer and rather be out and about in the snow, than cooped up.

And as fresh snow begins to fall from the heaven's and drape Kota’s shoulders in a chilling embrace, one almost feels like they are the only person left in this big blue sphere we call Earth.

After 573 layers and my computer refusing to load the file/stop working completely while I was drawing on it, its done!! I had two other frames lined with flat colors for this, but I removed them because I felt like they took away from…well, this :D Those will be uploaded as independent pictures, whenever I’m done coloring them~

First time drawing snow! I really like drawing backgrounds and can work on them for hours on end without getting bored... Unlike with lining and sometimes coloring the characters themselves XD I am very proud of this piece, but I never want to draw another tree again-!!

*Looks at my next couple projects lined up*
