about

This performance aims to give an insight into the possibilities and limits of communication and its related technologies (inscriptive and transcriptive media, artificial intelligence). The double obstacle that water imposes on the discourse (temporal and physiological limits) is intended to shed light on the Word itself, which paradoxically finds in this effort its naked vibratory nature freed from its communicative function ordinarily imposed by the code; the very object of language.

Allan Gilbert Balon is a composer, sound researcher and co-founder of 4/3© unit of musical cogitation with variable geometry (Fontainebleau) and xyä ©. Originally from Les Abymes on the island of Guadeloupe and now a resident of Ardèche, France.

His first release for House of Saturn is published in partnership with xyä © . High Latency Communication offers a primer of a practice that is first musical and literary, documenting the relationship of body, sound and space. The cassette records two performances of High Latency Communication, captured live in the basement of the Marquette Park Fieldhouse, Chicago, Illinois and features Matthew Riggen, Andy Klingensmith and Janna Lee respectively. This release on House of Saturn is accompanied by a compositional score of the performance for tuba, piano and voice. Printed on A2, hand-cut recycled paper.
