• Faithful Affixt Enactivist — Box Set Music understood as a radical form of qualitative theory which reaches beyond the confines of human language, including mathematics: music too displays a logical independence, an unprovability despite its truth. Music makes possible new admissions/transmissions of the insufficiency of self, personhood, observation, science, and philosophy; as an ideal generic science, music communes with the concept of the generic itself which: “operates by extracting a minimum invariant from the various scientific disciplines…these invariants have to be superposed, to be introduced as theoretical givens into the mode of superposition: the materials of science or philosophy are thus to be supplied to a material, conceptual formalism, i.e. they are themselves to be put into the mode of superposition as vectors, that is, into the context of generic science, which operates with the (vectorial) notion of wave rather than with notions such as corpuscle and point” Music as generic science, with its vectorial notion of wave, is both sensible and mimetic: what we see or hear in music is ineliminably tied to what we do, to our own bodily awareness of sensed waves. Music as generic science has to operate in such a way as to produce more complex results than the materials it uses from science and philosophy, if it is to develop its own undulatory, superposed practice—music can produce deeper complexity from any and all materials chosen in any composition, by superpositioning its vectors, as waves. Thereby, music provides a complementary image of the Real, a cloning of that which is foreclosed to understanding in all human languages, formal sciences, and interpretations: its genericity of scientific output unites where all other languages can only divide. The subject of musical truth is the subject who can subtract themself from the given state of the situation, leaving behind and adhering to the deviating vector of an event, with this event understood as the withholding of human decision, rather than the realization of it.

• Lag OS Pantano Stereomorfico Lag OS is the project of multimedia artist Rubén Patiño. It explores the potential of soundscapes as illusory spaces. This series of works recreate artificial environments trough synthetic sound and other forms of media. Pantano Stereomorfico plays with biomorphism, textural characteristics, cryptic visual information and tactility. It is introduced as a collection of sonic scenes from a mysterious imaginary wetland.This exercise results in evocative narratives that muddle the periphery of ambient music, abstract sound and amorphous club music. This project is presented as an art object produced in a very limited edition, which includes a music album that can be downloaded online. These tablets consist of a 12 cm by 14cm rubber urethane object and were produced broadly during Patiño’s artist residency at Hangar in Barcelona in collaboration with Ali Yerdel. The Pantano Stereomorfico album compiles three long audio compositions recorded by Patiño during 2016-2017 and mastered by Rashad Becker. €55.00
