Ari-Peka Lejnonen (Ari-Pekka Leinonen): ele-gi-eli
razgovor sa umetnikom i prezentacija projekta

ele-gi-eli je konceptualno fluidna devetokanalna zvučna skulptura.


…ili zvučni sistem koji razigrano spekuliše o mogućnosti da zvučnik simultano funkcioniše i kao akustično platno za rasipanje. Uspešna briselizacija oblikovala je njenu formu kroz uticaje gradskih silueta, beskonačne arhitekture i fleksibilnih pokretnih tela. Zvučnici kao skulpture ukazuju na potencijal plesa i telesnog slušanja kao kolektivne slobodne aktivnosti.
….ili zvučni komad koji pripoveda priču o imaginarnom kompozitoru elektronske muzike amigoismyfriend, čiji najnoviji album predstavlja imaginarni radio DJ. Pesme su inspirisane gradom i posredovane na slomljenom francuskom jeziku, što omogućava da se izvorno značenje stihova izobliči u vokalne izraze koji mogu preneti nesporazume.
….ili platforma za prakse zvučne umetnosti, izvođače i telesne slušaoce. Mobilna po svojoj prirodi. Spremna za upotrebu

Ari-Peka Lejnonen aktivno radi na performativnim zvučnim instalacijama putem projekcije zvuka sa više zvučnika. Osim toga, zanima ga stolarstvo, mogućnost zvučnika kao drvenih skulptura i način na koji zvučni sistemi stvaraju platforme za pokretna tela i zvučno pripovedanje. Tokom 2023. godine, istraživao je horizont Brisela i male detalje gradskih fasada kako bi spojio vizuelna istraživanja i zvučna otkrića u konačan zvučni komad ele-gi-eli za svoj zvučni triptih koji se sastoji od dva ranija dela L=10 i ||: o / dear  :||

KUOLEMA je jednosatni video rad koji obuhvata sve moje neobjavljene pesme iz desetogodišnjeg perioda. Pre nekoliko godina ozbiljno sam se razboleo. Kada sam dobio dijagnozu, prva misao mi je bila: „Šta će se desiti sa svim mojim nedovršenim pesmama?“ Iz nekog razloga, jedna od najvećih briga u tom trenutku bila mi je da će pesme ostati zauvek zaboravljene na hard drajvovima. Stoga sam počeo da smišljam način da ih „oslobodim“. To je rezultiralo radom koji pokriva period od deset godina, od trenutka kada sam počeo da se bavim muzikom do trenutka kada sam dobio svoju dijagnoza. Rad traje jedan sat i uključuje 183 pesme. Jedna sekunda odgovara jednom danu u mom životu. Pesme počinju da sviraju na dan kada su napravljene i sviraju se normalnom brzinom od početka do kraja. Na početku dolazi do preklapanja samo nekoliko pesama, ali na kraju ih je sve više, jer sam se bivao sve aktivniji.
Video deo se sastoji od preciznog spektrograma, koji stvara vizuelnu predstavu zvuka u realnom vremenu, kao i radnih naslova i datuma nastanka pesama.
Pesme koje sviraju u isto vreme mogu u početku izgledati haotično, ali ako im date malo vremena, zvučni pejzaž nalik vodopadu može ponuditi hipnotičko i očaravajuće iskustvo.
Delo je putovanje, u kome se progresivno povećava količina audio sadržaja i vizuelnih stimulansa.

ele-gi-eli
9-channel sound sculpture — conceptually fluid
…or a sound system that playfully speculates the possibility of a loudspeaker to function simultaneously as an acoustic diffuser panel. A positive Brusselization has formed its shape through the influence of city’s skyline, unconstrained architecture and flexible moving bodies. The loudspeakers as sculptures express the potential of dance and bodily listening as a collective leisure activity.
….or a sonic piece that narrates a story of an imaginary electronic music composer amigoismyfriend, whose newest album is previewed by imaginary radio DJ. The songs are inspired by the city and mediated in broken French allowing the original meaning of lyrics to distort into vocal expressions that might convey misunderstandings. https://soundcloud.com/pahoinpol/ele-gi-eli
…or a platform for sonic art practitioners, performers and bodily listeners. Mobile in its nature. Ready and willing to serve

Ari-Pekka Leinonen actively works with performatic sound art installations that utilise sound projection with multiple loudspeakers. Other than that he is interested in carpenting, possibilities of loudspeakers as wooden sculptures and how the sound systems create platforms for moving bodies and sonic storytelling. During the year 2023, he was exploring the skyline of Brussels and minor details of the city facade in order to combine the visual explorations and aural discoveries into a conclusive soundpiece ele-gi-eli for his sound triptych consisting of two earlier works L=10 and ||: o / dear<3 :||

KUOLEMA is a one-hour video work that includes all my unreleased songs from a period of ten years. A few years ago, I was very ill and when I got my diagnosis, my first thought was:
“What is going to happen to all my unfinished songs?” For some reason, one of my greatest concerns at that moment was that the songs would just stay on hard drives forever. So I started to develop a way to “release” them from the hard drives. This resulted in the work that covers a period of ten years from the time I started to make music to the moment I got my diagnosis. This takes one hour and includes 183 songs. One second corresponds to one day in my life. The songs start playing on the day they were made and are played at a normal speed from beginning to end. At the beginning, there may only be a couple of overlapping songs, but towards the end there are several because every year I have become more and more active.
The video part consists of an accurate spectrogram, creating a visual representation of the audio in real time, as well as the working titles and creation dates of the songs.
The songs playing at the same time may seem chaotic at first, but if you give it some time, the waterfall-like soundscape may offer a hypnotic and captivating experience.
The work is a journey, in which the amount of audio content and visual stimuli increase towards the end.
