Kintsugi

"“Kintsugi” is field-recording-based piece honouring both the original sample (from the Hill of the Buddha in Japan) as well as a form of Japanese art. Instead of using lacquer and precious metals to mend broken pieces of pottery, I use sound to bind other field recording samples together while still making that sound part of the design.  "I use the full sample to start and end the piece, with a drone-like part of the original sample as my lacquer throughout, binding field recordings of items I’ve used in sonic rituals for Summer Solstice 2024, Winter Solstice 2024, Summer Solstice 2025, and the March 2025 total lunar eclipse together as a whole.  "Field recordings of chimes, bowls, and items (jingle bells, seed beads, paintbrush) on a glockenspiel collected by artist in Lansing, MI. Track created in VCVRack2 with reverb, delay, and chorus effects added to field recordings and original sample." Hill of the Buddha, Sapporo reimagined by Stephanie E. Vasko.
