ATMOSPHERES: UGNAYAN @ 50
This is a restaging of Jose Maceda’s composition titled Ugnayan (originally Atmospheres) for radio airwaves, in celebration of the 50th year anniversary of its premiere. The work comprises 20 separate audio tracks that will be played simultaneously on participants’ mobile phones streamed from an online channel. The project hopes to unburden the piece of the shadows of 1970s Marcos propaganda that strain most art produced during that era and refocus on fostering the idea of community in performance —musicking as a communal activity that shapes the people. This is methodologically congruent with Maceda’s composition practice and responds to his provocation for us to think of how to respond to music if it is aided by superintelligent computers (1988).
