1. Enrico Malatesta & Attila Faravelli
Caveja is the title of a large, open project investigating the possible role of ancient/rural technology in the construction of a contemporary aural awareness. The work appropriates elements of folklore and rural Romagna rituality in order to produce multiple artistic outputs that deal with music and performative arts. Central to the research is the Cavéja Dagli Anëll, an ancient sound shaking device used in Romagna, equipped with tuned metal rings and used both in agricultural work and in particular superstitious-propitiatory rituals, and the Brontide, an unexplained acoustic phenomenon, similar to the sound of a landslide or an explosion in the sky (in English as skyquakes), nowadays no longer audible, and of which memory has been lost.
Live recorded at Decoratelier, Brussels, on 28/4/22.

This work is centred on the creation of a continuously transforming soundscape using objects found in public space, vibrations, foley techniques and field recordings of the streetscape. In my attempt to replicate some of the layers, silences and cominglings in our collective soundscape in this way I am also focused here on examining the tensions between the associations of authenticity attached to field recording, and the fictions of foley techniques, Instruments and objects used include: geophone turntable, bird horns, steel wool, brushes, a toy car, marbles, drums and a zither.
Live recorded at Decoratelier, Brussels, on 28/4/22.
