Marc Perez
ACE [artist curated event]
Audio presentation, Program #1 October 27th:
The Sound of The Nexus Touches Our Warm Bodies
"The Sound of The Nexus Touches Our Warm Bodies" is a track meant to depict our volatile partnership with technology. We all yearn to build connections, to access one another's hearts through a chiral network in attempts to make meaningful impressions and memories with one another. There is an immense beauty to this, as well as a sinister and malignant nature that exists within this nexus itself. It is vast, it is all knowing, it is all remembering, it is us yet not truly us. This track depicts a story of one's literally fusing with this world wide nexus we all have access to in the palm of our hands.

Soundscapes [audio tracks] On-site June 3rd and online June 11th:
the mouth cries, the eyes kill.
This work is meant to highlight and illustrate a struggle in sonic communication between two entities. One is searching for Love, guidance, something warm that will validate they existence. The other seemingly responds in lack of care, not only in a micro sense but a macro sense, showing the other entity they mean nothing.

Alessandro Rovegno is a composer, sound artist, and improviser currently based in Los Angeles, CA.
His work is rooted in an innermost relationship with the act of listening: allowing the emergent phenomenological, emotional, and spatial revelations from his listening practice to inform the structural and aesthetic manifestations of his pieces. This is often explored through gradual manipulation of tone, timbre, and mood over long durations– in both acoustic and electronic mediums. His compositions weave together field recordings, synthesis, sampled materials, and acoustic sounds to create a complex sense of sonic environment. Rovegno’s sonic work operates on the edge of perceptibility– where he invites the listener to engage with their own listening practice in a devoted manner.
