A few years ago she did the 'sound-joined rooms ' at the 'singuhr gallery' in Berlin. Thus I had the extreme(!) pleasure to spend a few days with her, exploring the soundscape of that almost ruined church and it's surroundings using her music as a scout. And then, during the breaks of her performance, we were talking about John Cage, particle accelerators, Björk and Laurie Anderson.
Such a pity that she has passed away in 2009.
Often categorized as experimental music, but this incredible experience goes beyond experimentation. This is far one of the most striking pieces of music i ever heard and experienced.
All great music is experimentation
what does "goes beyond experimentation" even mean that's such a bullshit phrase
Decades ago, I had the rare privilege to help Amacher lug her equipment and help her set up a performance. The performance required my full body, just not only ears. How can we create permanent installations of her work? I have heard riotous stories about her, including her skill at sneaking into movie houses and so avoiding admission. Hoping someone has recorded those tales.
You just watched that Adam Neely video
You just have good taste*
No. James Tenney Cellogram
Maryanne had a fantastic ear!
Miss her...
i don't know about her ears but her music was lush
She's gone? That's terrible.
Like a long sound corridor with unopened doors through which one guesses other voices and other rooms. Pure poetry in music !
Heard this on the radio once, then had it recorded on a cassette, now long gone. Every time I hear it, it's completely startling - one of the most genuinely psychedelic things ever. Thanks for posting!
Totally, totally underrated.
Another wonderful track of sound sculpture!
Brilliant !
If you are high: Do not go into fullscreen, look at the image, and listen to this with headphones on. you will most likely be scared out of bed. If you have done that, ask a friend for help. You will be okay no matter what you think.
DonutAssassin sounds like you come from experience
Why not fullscreen?
just did that and dude i saw weird faces and things moving, was pretty spooky but too high to move
@@owenmitty7440 it doesn't count if you're high bro
So I've been reading in a bunch of comments that the combination tones don't work with headphones, which is not surprising, but I gotta say, with headphones this is morbidly creepy. As a piece of noise art, it has some real effect.
heavenly like she was
within realm of psychoacoustic phenomena
TOTALLY RADICAL AND POETIC EXPERIENCE!OH,WHAT A MISS YOU MAKE, YOU! THESE INCREDIBLE PERFORMER! TODAY,THIS KNOW-HOW IS LOST,FOREVER!
THANK YOU,FOR THIS RARE AND PRECIOUS UPLOAD! CARRY ON,PLEASE!
I was told this was required lainist listening and I wasn't disappointed
i got chills so many times
Unexpectedly awesome
I like it. Thank you very much for posting this wonderful music.
Makes me think of Serial Experiments Lain.
Wonderful!
This is rapidly meltin' my dope😂😂
perfect
@hubi1857 YOU ARE RIGHT,FELLA! THE MUSIC LIVE FOREVER! SORRY ABOUT MY SUDDEN CRISIS OF
NOSTALIC TIMES! BUT,ANYWAY,THERE IS,ONTO OUR HEARTS,THESE JEWEL! THANKS,BROTHER!
''SHALOM''!
thanks
love it!!
Am I the only one who feels anxious fear in the endless corridor?
super
@khantarya Her knowledge might be lost, but her music lives on. FOREVER!
What are the combination tones supposed to sound like? It's a whole lot of ambient sounds; how to tell which one is the ghost one? :S
Music for when you dont sleep for 3 days
the ghosts in the music.
I loves me some Maryanne Armchair! I do! I do!
Good noise
fullscreen and cross your eyes until the hallways combine into one. then slide into the spectral abyss
Seriously though, it's considered it's own sub-genre!
Many users comment how unusual and beautiful this music is. How did you listen to it? All I can hear are horror noises. A portable speaker does not work for that, and headphones are even worse
It seems to hear it at its finest, it needs to be heard as an installation piece, with everything being precisely organised by her, down to number of speakers, where they're placed etc
hey, what is the picture of/who is it by? i did something very similar for an art piece when i was a school... if i'd known about this piece i would've investigated the artist...
@jlin7788 There's a collected works cd on the Tzadik label, I think it's the last track. John Zorn's label. Well worth purchasing. She also turns up on the brilliant "Ohm: The Pioneers Of Electronic Music" compilation. Hope you track them down, ebay should supply.
This one isn't about over tones though, right?
Thx !!! ++1
Sounds like a Legend of Zelda temple with an emergency steam siren...
Nice stuff here. Also, if that's an actual stereo-view, I need to find it.
Haha definitely is, just took a little while to get!
If you have the image small enough that the centres are separated by same amount as your pupils (typically 57mm or so) then get as close to it as you can focus comfortably. Now try to fool your eyes into looking through the screen to infinity.
Once you’re getting close to persuading your eye to do this you’ll notice a third central image appears, concentrate on that and you’ll see it has depth.
The trick is easier to pull off if you can get the screen close to your eyes, so short-sighted people have an advantage. For those with normal vision, a pair of strong reading spectacles may help.
@khantarya Sorry Brother! I can did mean ''nostalgic'' ,right above! In fact,talk about this issue,brings to me,a very
strong charge of emotions! Thank you a lot,again!''Shalom"!
ooo
This is what it sounds like then you take a shit and you look at it right before you flush
its nice but the high pitched buzz its a buzz kill
I only hear a faint whawhawhawha
Adam Sandler
Nice reminds me of meth mefisto
Sounds like Immigrant Garden to me.
the sound of Fate?
So just noise?
Pretty easy to do stuff like this now.
Saw many groups in the mid to late 90's doing this sort of thing at the second knitting factory in nyc.
What... is ... this?
If you like this, Check out Godspeed You! Black Emperor.
hahaha
if you like GY!BE, check out Glenn Branca's Light field (in consonance)
If you compare art music with shit & roll, you need your ears checked.
It's like comparing Picasso with Walt Disney.
wasabihansen relaxe
Or early Tangerine Dream
...
A great way to disperse demonstrators.
I might as well just record my fart and put it on replay, make it gradually get louder and add the smell element into the experience.
You've got new york art exhibition DJ written all over you! using your fart?! So bold, So Raw, and yet elegantly providing us with the grounding humanism to accompany one through the halls of a surreal art show! when can you start?
And this ladies and gentleman is why my faith in humanity is lost.. you probably listen to spotify's top 50's all day long and that's why your fucking tiny brain hasn't developed enough to apreciate the experiment and trying new ideas to make music out of everything and anything ... omg i don't even wanna know how you got here and what you've probably written in other videos...
LOL wow that joke went right over your head didn't it.
Jmmy W whatever flips your skirt
How on earth is that thing called music? will someone please explain what so wonderful about this annoying sounds?
Have you ever tried to "hear " the sounds of your body ? Takes some imagination.
Its mostly the ambience. This could be the soundtrack to a horror film and technically be the score. there are notes here, you have to listen for them.
YOU called it music, OpethOK.
You can’t listen with headphones btww that might be why you can’t hear it
If you have to ask, you will never know.
I feel like I listen to parts of every one of her songs and in my opinion she's never made anything even slightly decent. It's just noise. Not avant-garde. Just garbage
you should watch the video Adam Neely made, it explains a lot about the construction of the audio, and stuff about how she can manipulate the human ear into creating sounds just by using certain frequencies. It's crazy stuff. Don't get me wrong, I would never listen to this in my free time, but she is truly an experimental musician, but more of a scientist in my opinion.
@@sauerklout2496 you listened to this for work?
