Cities and Memory - remixing the world

Sedimentos que flotan (floating sediments)

12 Dec 2025

Description

"Floating Sediments is a work that uses sounds from a market in Iquitos, Peru. The voices of vendors and customers, fragments of music, and everyday murmurs are extracted through spectral processes to reconfigure this landscape within an expanded temporality. Through synthesis, modulations of speed and pitch, resonances, and reverberations, a state of persistence is suggested, of traces that fix and vanish in a space of their own. "The work is a collage of vocal layers, displaced textures, and imagined presences. Synthesizers are also incorporated to add harmonic color, creating a sonic fabric that oscillates between memory and transformation into an imagined acoustic territory." Iquitos, Peru soundscape reimagined by Jorge Martínez Valderrama.
