Talking Tilt

Formative conversations on how TILT came to be / was planned.

[8:12 pm, 08/08/2021]

Kiran Sahi:

I like the way that new technology seems to affect popular culture….

Kiran Sahi: Sound cancellation – is the elimination of unwanted noise in the environment using noise cancelling headphones. A microphone in the headphones picks up external sound and creates an inverse signal to the speakers in order to cancel it.

Kiran Sahi: Cancel culture is the mass withdrawal of support from public figures or celebrities who have done things that aren’t socially accepted today. This practice of “canceling” or mass shaming often occurs on social media platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook

Rajivan: “Any wall, once it is tilted, would become a shelter, at least a very basic shelter,” kiran was saying once, during one of our conversations.
I found a lot of interesting drives from this idea. Yes, I thought, that we quite often, unknowingly, tilt our head to listen as well, turn our head in many directions to listen to what we could. this is very physiological perhaps.

The microphone is like a head in my hand. imagine a choreographic dimension of the body with the hand holding the head. very primitive perhaps visually.

Kiran Sahi: does technology also allow for a process of ‘disembodiment’ – where the camera is an extension of the eye, the microphone an extension of the ear and the speaker and extension of the mouth— is the computer an extension of the brain??

Kiran Sahi: “I don’t know how you hear music. I imagine that if you like music at all then it has, in your head, some kind of third dimension to it, a dimension suggesting space as well as surface, depth of field as well as texture.

 

Speaking for myself, I used to hear “buildings”… three-dimensional forms of architectural substance and tension. I did not “see” these buildings in the classic synaesthetic way so much as sense them. These forms had “floors”, “walls”, “roofs”, “windows”, “cellars”. They expressed volume. Music to me has always been a handsome three-dimensional container, a vessel, as real in its way as a Scout hut or a cathedral or a ship, with an inside and an outside and subdivided internal spaces.

 

I’m absolutely certain that this “architecture” had everything to do with why music has always exerted such a hold over me. I think music was the structure in which I learned to contain and then examine emotion.”

Rajivan: placing drupad with space is another view. Mani Kaul was going in that feel i guess.
