The score, composed by Adrian More, is itself a carefully mathematical reimagining of Radiohead's 2011 song of the same title, centred around the conceptual and musical explication of the palindrome. The soundscape of pre-recorded vocal fragments is orchestrated by a two year period of ocean data from a fixed buoy, “Melax,” monitoring the Southern Senegalese mid-shelf.

In this site-specific installation, sung motifs come and go according to an interaction of sea level, temperature and dissolved oxygen levels data, coded by interdisciplinary musician, Lucy Strauss.

At the heart of “Bloom” lies rupture, inversion and catharsis. The viewers/listeners are invited to embody the felt sense of voices singing a "universal sigh”; an attenuated out breath, sustained by scattered stone, dust and pieces of glass. While looping voices smooth sharp edges, something else is offered up.

Bloom (a gentle erosion)
6 broken hourglasses, 4 channel speaker system
@dak_artbiennale (19 May-21 June 2022)
2022

“Bloom (a gentle erosion)” is an audio-visual installation exhibited as part of the official selection @dak_artbiennale . The work is comprised of six broken hourglasses containing crushed stones from both Mamelles Beach (Dakar) and Grotto Bay (Western Cape, South Africa), and a pre-programmed continuous soundscape broadcast through a 4 channel speaker system. Referencing the early use of hourglasses as measures of time and speed aboard ships at sea, here they are precariously installed so they might fall and shatter, engaging a visual dialogue between these two coastal regions.

This work explores the interplay of both objective and subjective measures related to ecological, musical and psychoaffective time scales, conceptualised in 2020 and built upon throughout the global pandemic. The human life span relative to the existence of the stones collected from these two shorelines, provide a speculative key. In “Bloom”, stones are imagined as witnesses or archives of the intertidal zone and beyond.

Somersaulting In Your Bloom (2020)

Imaged here is one of three hourglasses which behave as audio triggers, each tethered to a single voice. In viewer/listener is invited to flip them over ad lib, becoming a conductor of sorts, either allowing the sand to run through to silence or triggering a new path for the audio to follow. Each hourglass contains sand made from a single, hand-crushed stone, found along the Western Cape shoreline.

The composition, “Bloom” was written by the incredible Adrian More, based on Radiohead’s, “Ocean Bloom”, especially for this project. Both music and lyrics are constructed around the motif of the palindrome.
