In November 2006, the India Social Forum took place in Delhi at the same time as the SONIC ARTS residency at Khoj.
I made the two source recordings on November 13th. Here's one. Then I made an edited remix of that on November 17.
Orange Sorting Machine (Raw) (2002) Recorded in Miyaura, Miyazaki, Japan.NOISES
Shortwave Noise, Delhi (2004)FAILURES
In 2001 and 2002, I spent my Decembers picking oranges in the village of Miyaura, in Miyazaki Prefecture, Kyushu.
One night in 2002, a shinto priest from Udo-jingu
was nice enough to come over to the Saito house to explain the origins
of Shinto ritual music to Marcus and Atsuko and Seya and Mika and Thai
and me (and the Saito kids.) I recorded his playing on my MD recorder,
but when I got home to America and dubbed the MDs to computer, the MD
failed to read one track - the one where the priest plays the
instrument that represents the sound of the sun.
I worked on a
video, about a day in the life of the village during the orange
season... I failed to complete the video but did make several sections.
The video ended in darkness, with just the sound of this track --> Inside Orangemountain, there is no sound of the sun. (2003)
