Beskrivelse
HVAD DØGN is a 24 hour subterranean sound ritual by HVAD, exploring circular time, space and sound. HVAD DØGN unfolds in Cisternerne January 6-7 2024, from Saturday 03.33 AM to Sunday 03:33 AM.
Commissioned by Strøm, the Danish/Indian composer and producer HVAD [aka Hari Shankar Kishore] has spent the last three years exploring the unique soundscapes of Cisternerne, the old underground water reservoirs of the Danish capital. The result is HVAD DØGN, a 24 hour long subterranean sound ritual.
Over the last three years HVAD has recorded a myriad of sounds in the spectacular acoustics of the three giant reservoir chambers that make up Cisternerne. As the only dripstone cave in Denmark it totals more than 4.000 m2 of sparsely illuminated, high-ceilinged cement halls covered in beautiful, fragile dripstones.
HVAD records and composes using Cisternerne’s acoustic architecture of endless reverbs and echoes. His many recordings are then reworked in the Kommunal Dubplate Service studio, before returning back to the old reservoirs to record again. A circular process, which makes Cisternerne’s underworldly spatial and acoustic properties the key elements of the HVAD DØGN sound ritual. “A space dedicated to souls and spirits”, as HVAD puts it.
HVAD has composed three meditative pieces, each 24 hours long [a ‘døgn’ in Danish), for the three chambers of Cisternerne. Using the sound recordings as building blocks he combines these with studio experimentations on specially-cut gramophone records, electronic sound equipment and classical Indian instruments.
This circular process, inspired by movements of the sun and earth and the cyclical time concept of Hinduism, is found everywhere in the composition. Notably, parts of his three years of sound recording sessions are cut onto physical records using so-called locked grooves (endless circles of sound rather than the start-to-end spirals usually found on records), creating infinite sound loops that play a prominent part in HVAD DØGN.
The HVAD DØGN sound ritual is the first music experience ever in Cisternerne which uses all three chambers simultaneously. HVAD’s compositions for each chamber interweave like planetary orbits over the 24 hours, and HVAD will occasionally interact with the sound ritual as a master of ceremonies, improvising with speakers and turntables using his home-made records as well as various other instruments, including ancient Indian drums, stringed instruments and resonating metals.
The audience can enter the HVAD DØGN sound ritual in Cisternerne whenever and as often as they like during the 24 hours.They are invited to move about freely in the three chambers, guided only by their ears and their intuition, exploring HVAD’s notion of circular time, space and sound while creating their own subterranean sound journey.
HVAD DØGN unfolds in Cisternerne on January 6-7 2024, from Saturday at 03.33 AM to Sunday at 03.33 AM. Presented by Strøm along with Frederiksbergmuseerne.
