about
- GEN by Sergio Cornejo and Carmen Troncoso, utilising recorder material played on a (vintage) contrabass recorder, a wooden baroque treble recorder, a plastic soprano recorder, a Ganassi alto in G recorder, and a bamboo Indian whistle.
GEN, by Sergio Cornejo and Carmen Troncoso was composed for Troncoso’s and audiovisual artist Richard Kearns’ installation Between Air, Clay and Woods of Certain Flutes, an interdisciplinary project that brought together outstanding creative practitioners from Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, Guatemala, France, England and Singapore to create an immersive, audiovisual, interactive space that reunited recorder (musical instrument) with forest as a transformed inhabitant of that place. It was assembled in the Norman Rea Gallery at the University of York, UK, in February 2021. The project has been awarded an Ibermusicas grant for the creation of a digital version in the form of an art game.
Cornejo explains that he also used material from his “sound library”- developed when he worked in recording studios, sounds rescued from other recordings, and production through software. About Cornejo’s creative process, he commented that “in devising GEN, I evoked my games as a child in the plot of land of my aunt, and I concentrated on building agglutinating sound spaces. They were my worlds and in creating this music, I recover them. The forest for me is intimate, perhaps like those forests and thickets that my aunt used to paint, or those that Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, that great evocator, described.”
