Bob and Mary are expecting. As this is their first child, Bob considers if he's even going to be in the room when Mary gives birth due to nerves and a multitude of emotions. As he goes through these reflections, he writes it all down and tucks it away in a journal. Decades later and after his death, Bob's granddaughter, Kellyn, finds this journal entry and decides to make a "sound poem" about her grandfather's emotions and the birth of her father, transcending years of family history and memory. Kellyn narrates this journal entry from the perspective of her grandfather and produces this sound poem, including her own field recordings, foley, and editing.

Invisible Body (Raw Noise)

"A bodily and sonic experience about parenthood.
The piece was recorded at LEIMAY CAVE during my stay at the Incubator, a few days after the birth of my daughter. Between an unknown euphoria and sleep deprivation, my body and my senses were in a shamble. I was not myself anymore, but not yet someone new. The fatigue existed everywhere except in the studio, where I found an untapped energy and a balance into chaos.
During those days of experimentation, I wanted to rediscover my relationship with touch. I blindfolded myself every time I entered the studio. I had to forget myself, my vision of things and my definition of my body in a space. I had to become invisible to myself to explore and attempt to reach this other me with a newborn waiting on the other side of the studio.
While moving and trying to make sense of what it means to be again, I felt, hurt myself, and finally found ground. It was an out-of-body experience ; I became invisible and reached immaterial spaces.
I was learning to walk again, step by step, stomping my way to feel the joy and the pains to feel alive.
INVISIBLE BODY (RAW NOISE) is a bodily and sonic lover letter to my bones, muscles, and skin. More importantly, through this piece, I question what will be their purpose outside, in the real world.
PS: I’d like to thank Ximena Garnica, Shine Moriya, Krystel Copper and Brandon Perdomo from LEIMAY CAVE for their support during this crucial moment of my life.
PS2: Please use your headphones to experiment the raw granularity of the experience.”
