At deadline 1 May 2024, More Sound received 27 applications for a residency at IAC, and one project has now been selected for a four-week residency. Congratulations to Danish composer Lars Kynde!
Lars Kynde says about the project he wants to explore:
At IAC, I will explore how a magnetic field can deform the harmonics of metal instruments and strings - a kind of magnetic "tuning peg" that can tune harmonic series inharmonically and vice versa.
I hope to find a physical model for the relationship between magnetic field and spectrum. If successful, I see a poetic potential in the instrument adapting fluidly, like a chameleon, to the world it encounters. While documenting simple experimental setups, I will write etudes for each of the possibilities that open up.
