Transmissions is a quadraphonic concert, a series of spatial sound pieces, created from sonified electromagnetic waves from telephone and Wi-Fi signals.

Through subtle movements of tactile sounding depths and layers, it is an exploration of the materiality of the invisible, but ubiquitous, digital signals, that travel through the airspace surrounding us, connecting and exchanging information. The air, or more precisely, the space around, inside, and between us all, is the medium through which all of this wireless communication is transmitted.

Over several years, Camille Roth has been exploring electromagnetic waves as a phenomenon, through field-recordings from various places in the world, using a small detector device for transduction into sound. From carefully selected bits and passages, she has structured them into detailed, dynamic sound pieces, creating images of the EM-waves as physically present layers of digital texture, weaving in and out of each other, transmitting over small and great distances. The composition of the pieces are inspired by research into EM-waves as both technology and form of communication, the cultural perceptions attached to them, as well as their relationship to time, space, and the urge to get through to the other end.

Feel free to move and turn around during the concert.

During her residency at Inkonst, Camille Roth has worked on new ways to stage the quadraphonic live-concert, and developed the format of Transmissions into it’s final form – somewhere between a concert and a temporal sound installation.

After the concert she will be present for an artist talk, sharing her thoughts and processes around the piece.

The concert is part of an Inkonst Studio residency.
Supported by Art Music Denmark

Eventbillede

After several years in the making, Camille Roth’s quadraphonic sound piece Transmissions will premiere on Mayhem Kbh, September 8th 2022.

Transmissions is a series of quadraphonic sound pieces, created from recordings of electromagnetic waves from telephone- and wi-fi signals, translated into sound. It is a sensuous and spatial exploration of the invisible but ubiquitous digital signals, that fill the airspace all around us, creating complex exchanges and connections.

Premiere on new sound piece GAP @ Lobe Spatial Sound Studio, Vancouver

PR billede uden tekst

During her residency at Lobe Spatial Sound Studio, Camille Roth is continuing her work with sonified electromagnetic recordings, exploring the materiality and texture of wireless communication processes that allow connection across distances.

Her new sound piece GAP is a reflection on the displacements and fragmentations of signals and vibrations that nevertheless connect and affect us all.

The piece will be presented for the first time at Lobe Studio at a limited event with three showtimes, and Camille Roth will be present for short artist talks after each one. 

Dec. 10, 2021 @ Lobe. Run Time ~30 mins; 6pm, 7pm, 8pm

From November 30th – December 20th 2020 Camille Roth will be a resident artist at Inter Arts Center in Malmö, Sweden, developing a project with multichannel sound and physical materials in the Black Room.

The residency project will focus on the creation of a sound installation that reflects upon the way waves of energy move through and around space and matter. It is an exploration of the relationship between the flow of signals through air, and the materials used for letting certain signals pass though, while filtering or blocking others.

Inspired by her ongoing work with sonification of electromagnetic waves from radio, telephone and Wi-Fi signals, Camille will explore concepts of barriers, connections, interfaces and conducting materials, that shape the way that information flows.

Inter Arts Center is a platform for artistic research and experimentation, and part of the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts at Lund University.

The project is supported by the Danish Composers’ Society and Kodas Cultural Funds.

Myths of Electromagnetism – a spatial sound installation by Camille Roth and Rebekka Meyer will be presented December 1st 2018 at the 4DSound Spatial Sound Institute, Budapest, Hungary.

The installation presents a sonic interpretation of how electromagnetic waves manifest in the space around us – how they move, behave and affect us. Inspired by how societies have imagined electricity and electromagnetism throughout history, the work deals with the representation as well as the myths and notions on such phenomenon. The installation is the finished result of a seven week residency, where Camille and Rebekka collaborated on the exploration of electromagnetism and spatial sound.

The work will be presented as a sound installation on December 1st 2018 from 14:00-16:00 and again from 18:00-20:00, as part of the two-day event: Inaudible Realities at the Spatial Sound Institute including talks, presentations, installations and concerts.

Myths of Electromagnetism is supported by the Danish Arts Foundation and 4DSound.

Residency @ The Spatial Sound Institute

4DSound Symphonic Sound System, Funkhaus, Berlin

From September 24th – November 11th 2018, Camille Roth will be a resident artist at the 4DSound Spatial Sound Institute, collaborating with Rebekka Meyer on the project: Myths of Electromagnetism.

The residency project is an artistic exploration of electromagnetic waves and communication processes, and the ways in which we as humans relate to these phenomena.

The Spatial Sound Institute is a research and development centre for spatial sound technologies and practices based in Budapest, Hungary. The central studio of the Spatial Sound Institute houses a large-scale omnidirectional sound system designed by 4DSOUND, custom-built into the renovated architecture of the warehouse. The unique acoustical design of the studio provides an environment where sounds can move around, above and beneath, hover in the far distance or come intimately close to the body.

The seven week residency will take place in two parts: During the first three weeks, Camille and Rebekka will work in 4DSound Symphonic Sound System in Funkhaus, Berlin, Germany, and during the following four weeks they will further develop their work in The Spatial Sound Institute in Budapest, Hungary.

The residency project Myths of Electromagnetism is supported by the Danish Arts Foundation and 4DSound.
