PLEASE NOTE: Play at maximum volume. This is not a loud piece but rather a very subtle one, where the essential sonic details will only be audible –and audible in the right way- at maximum volume.

about

francisco lópez untitled #337
(full extended version) [9h14’12”]

Created at ‘mobile messor’ (worldwide), 2014-2015.

A composition between sound piece and sonic environment.

Originally generated by means of the ‘Low-resolution High Definition Lopezsonics’® system (LHDL) [at 16kbps / 16-bit], with a size rate nearly 100 times smaller than a prototypical CD-standard or .wav file audio “quality” (44 kHz / 16-bit).

Crucially, however, this is not a compressed version of any original file but rather the actual file-piece (split in four parts of the piece) as it has been conceived and created. All sonic artifacts have been deliberately generated, selected and maintained for aesthetic reasons.

Play at maximum volume:
Unlike the tedious customary traditional recommendation, this is not a loud piece but rather a very subtle one, where the essential sonic details will only be audible –and audible in the right way- at maximum volume (no loud surprises or irresponsible tricks).
[This apparent paradox is explained by intentional subsonics, which actually produce a file-piece with strong amplitude levels (easily seen in the waveform or volume indicators, for those interested) that make impossible an undistorted increase in perceptible volume in the file itself.]

Please use decent headphones or speakers:
Typical laptop or handheld-device speakers will render completely inaudible sound (thus generating even more tedious reactions of the head-scratching kind, like “there’s no sound”, “it’s a conceptual silent work”, and crap like that).
