About the environmental works I usually make a deep investigation of particular places, making recordings like field recordings or recordings of signals from short wave radio receivers and VLF receivers, in order to compose conceptual works about the selected sites; together with a deep study about the history of the place on which I’m working on. I’m interested in reconfiguring the sound panorama through its transcendental aspects to create a dimension that is not only sound but mainly a total perceptive dimension that bring ourselves to find out a new kind of perception. I realize works as PIETRO RIPARBELLI especially related to the world of Contemporary Art. So each work arise from a conceptual idea turned into sound. The field in which I principally work is linked to the perception of the sound landscape and to the perception of inner states of consciousness related to other dimensions of awareness. K11 is a project that deals with the world of radio signals, the trans-communication and other invisible phenomena, to create a dimension where the only sound sources are signals from shortwave radio receivers and field recordings taken from very specific locations. In this project I use only sounds coming from the atmosphere and from invisible places turned into fields of drone with particular interest into the study of the dynamics of Noise. 



MARCELLO BACCI - GRUPPO PSICOFONICO DI GROSSETO

psychophonia / esoteric

[...] After more than thirty-five years of dedicated study of Instrumental TransCommunication (ITC), Marcello Bacci can be considered a leading expert in the field due to this exceptionally long record of experimentation with the voices. The remarkable phenomena that have occurred in the past decades in Grosseto, Italy, indicate that this persevering experimenter is always prepared to locate new openings to communicate with the beyond. Bacci’s character is such that he is never satisfied with the results achieved and always wishes to continue the exploration from other possible perspectives. His interest in the paranormal goes back to 1949 when he participated in a mediumistic sitting in London. From that time, his life was indelibly marked and today, at seventy-nine years of age, he continues to make regular experiments, once a month. Bacci is a man with wide-ranging creativity. His personality reveals itself to be unconditioned and free, intolerant of any restriction coming from dogmatic and cultural pressures that seek to reject realities that personal experience has indicated to him are possible. In his long years of experimental work, Bacci has tested various methods and many technical devices.  In the beginning he made microphone recordings, in the same manner as Jürgenson and Raudive.  Over the years he has made many other attempts with newly developed devices. In the past two decades he has been obtaining his transcontacts through an old Nordmende valve radio....[continue here]

Marcello Bacci inizia le sue ricerche nel mondo del paranormale all'inizio degli anni '60 passando attraverso una vasta gamma di metodologie. Dopo alcuni anni di sperimentazione con il magnetofono la ricerca si è andata focalizzando nella ricezione di Voci paranormali tramite un apparecchio radio-ricevente a valvole. L'uso di un apparecchio radio come strumento idoneo alla ricezione delle Voci paranormali fu suggerito dalle Voci stesse che Bacci registrava su magnetofono. I contatti radio avvengono oggi con particolari e ben precise modalità subordinate alla presenza di Marcello Bacci, elemento medianico catalizzatore di energie misteriose "che non sono di ordine scientifico, ma di altro ordine", come hanno precisato le Voci stesse. Tentativi di stabilire il contatto in assenza di Bacci hanno dato sempre esito negativo, confermando il ruolo medianico dello sperimentatore.

" Per quanto riguarda la ricerca e i risultati ottenuti da Marcello Bacci, vorrei particolarmente sottolineare e sostenere che sono di un'importanza eccezionale, in quanto le sue registrazioni di "voci" sono limpide ed estremamente chiare da interpretare. Devo aggiungere che tutto ciò è realizzato da un uomo di grande purezza d'animo, che, per sentita partecipazione verso la sofferenza di chi ha perduto una persona amata, mette a disposizione il suo tempo, la sua esperienza, e tutto il suo impegno gratuitamente ed altruisticamente. Auguro al caro Bacci un buon lavoro." - Friedrich Jurgenson

In this video: "Auditory Thresholds" with: Michael Esposito & Carl Michael von Hausswolff

Michael Esposito was born 1964 in Gary, Indiana. He is an experimental artist and researcher in Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP). An ancestor of Alfred Vail, who invented the Morse Code and several early telegraph devices with his partner Samuel Morse. Another ancestor, Jonathan Harned Vail was office manager and assistant to Thomas Edison in his later years when Edison was attempting to develop a device to communicate with the dead. Michael studied communication theory at Purdue University, University of Notre Dame, American University in Cairo, Egypt and Governor's State University. Over the years, under the Phantom Airwaves institution, Michael has participated in hundreds of paranormal investigations all over the world. He has conducted extensive research at many active locations and has developed a great deal of unique theory and devised many unique experiments within the field of EVP. Focusing primarily on EVP research, he has collected tens of thousands EVPs and video. He is featured in the films:

Dead Whisper, Paranormal Labs: Ghosts - Dead Whisper, Ghost Asylum, The Sallie House - Gateway to the Paranormal, Dead Whisper: In Search of Ghosts and the Supernatural, Paranormal Labs Presents: Ghost Asylum, The Sallie House - Gateway to the Paranormal, 2011 Ash 8.3 #3 presented to Michael Esposito by Ash International.

Michael has appeared in numerous television, radio and newspaper features.
Working extensively with EVP's relationship to experimental music, Michael combines EVP with field recording and related frequency tones of research sites to provide an audio-archeological picture of both sides of the veil.
Michael is currently published by Touch Music [MCPS] UK.

With PT-R project I want to investigate the way to create rhythmic sound landscapes making the use of environmental sounds (field recordings) with particular reference to the world of electronic scene. The method I utilize within PT-R project is based on sampling of environmental sound sources turned into rhythmic framework.
