Anechoic Sounds : Lori Napoleon (Antenes)
Lecture No.3 of the Site : Sound series features muscian Lori Napoleon (Antenes), who lead a demonstration exploring the concept of silence and the psychoacoustic effects of anechoic (echo-less) sound on our senses over time.
The event was held at Cooper Union School of Engineering, where participants could conduct their own sound experiments in the university's anechoic chamber.
ABOUT
Lori Napoleon (Antenes) is a New York-based musician, synth builder and electronics artist operating a laboratory of self-made sequencers and synthesizers using repurposed vintage telephone equipment. Known for her inventive soundscapes, Antenes treats the studio as a space for sculpting emergent patterns, textures, and percussion layers. Drawing musical influence from the curious and ephemeral sound-world of outdated telephone systems, her productions integrate sounds reminiscent of pulsing analog relay switching systems, errant radio transmissions, cross-continental echo, signature drones and message interferences between wires.
Lori Napoleon is currently an artist in resident at Issue Project Room in Brooklyn, NY.
