As part of field recordings, I worked with the acoustic conditions of a large residential complex of over 35 studios, where largely empty corridors in an extracted, functionally suspended space generate spatial and sonic tensions.
I treated the building as an active system, engaging its material and infrastructural elements — windows, iron structures, doors and ambient noise — as carriers of residual spatial information. The architecture is approached as a site of layered temporalities.
To activate these conditions, I constructed a situation in which the building becomes an instrument: speakers hidden within its structure played fragmented punctuation from the Libra typeface (Sjoerd Henrik de Roos, 1938), translated into spatial sound.
