ENVIRONMENTS

Irv Teibel

Field recording is a reciprocative process and something that can be used for archiving and educational purposes as well as relaxation and meditation. The earth is the ultimate music maker and it is up to those who love recording to share that music with those who would not normally be able to hear it!
Environment as archive, as perfection, as community, as meditation, as calm waves washing over ready to transport the listener or onlooker to another realm.

TEXTURE

Unknown (Mouchette)

Meditation

Everything everywhere all the time.
Physical, emotional, presence and non-presence.
Nothing has to be heard for sound to be present and complex

SOUND

If sound can be textured so physically, so can websites and design. Crunchy crispy flaky bits. Like ice, like dry leaves, like the sun on my bare back, like the blister on my heel.
ASMR, texture is not just feeling but sensing and being sensed.
Build up, tension, release, catharsis.

RELATIONSHIPS

I am consistently supporting/being supported by everyone I've ever met.
I would be nothing without places to give my love and sources from which to receive it back, personally and artistically. Genuine love. Everything and everyone I love, I love genuinely. I'm inspired by my own feverish attempts to never become jaded, never stop loving,
I have never existed in a vacuum and I never want to!!!!

Spending time alone (or with others) thinking about being with others (or alone). Thinking about how my body moves. Not thinking and letting myself be. Watching the sunset. Watching a movie. Getting drunk. Spending the day in bed. Spending the day running jumping hiking sweating. Being stimulated. Eating pickled beets, eating peach slices with ice.
Closing my eyes, not moving, opening them and looking at my surroundings as if everything is fresh and new. Reading, re-reading, watching, re-watching, listening, re-listening. Every time can be just as good as the first time.
