Tekton / X26, audio notes

I’ve been thinking about making some new audio notes for this latest piece of work. I thought it might be a nice way to present some new ideas.

There’s an underlying geometry which is really based on a tiled X form, which spins out from the middle. The tiling concept is something that you see all over the Islamic world, and in countries I’ve visited recently like Spain and the Alhambra.

There’s a beauty in that kind of underlying geometry which is very two dimensional and decorative, and allows you to have a kind of tiled form on which to hang colour, glaze and pattern. So I wanted to do a piece around those kind of themes, that maybe could look at a very two dimensional approach to image making; a little bit different from the normal more three dimensional sculptural forms that I might draw.
