Pain Re-synthesised

Original title: Pain Re-synthesised

Pain Re-synthesised is a meditation on the subjective nature of pain. Exploring the disorienting, debilitating nature of pain, while also reflecting on its potential to generate something new – to create texture, detail, temporal dimensions, divinity and beauty that didn’t exist before. A process of re-synthesis takes place as a groan is broken up, warped, re-pitched and transformed again and again through SPEAR – a spectral analysis program that visualises sound frequencies as fragmented grey lines.
