倍音歌唱とオルガンによる完全アコースティック持続音!!1996年アイルランド出身、パフォーマンスとサウンドアートの境界を行き来する作家であり、主に環境特有の共鳴特性や歴史的文脈を重要視した作品作りを行うDylan Kerr。2024年2月、コロンビア大学セント・ポール礼拝堂にて実施した、パイプオルガンとアンプリファイド無しの倍音歌唱の干渉を捉えた音源[Confluence]。声とオルガンが互いに絡み合い空間に共鳴する倍音が増幅、次第に密度の高い音塊を形成する35分間。



‘Confluence (for pipe organ and voice)’ is a work by Dylan Kerr threaded by relationships between time, architecture, air, and breath. It unfolds through slowly growing organ intervals that meet and merge with the unamplified voice, progressively forming denser clusters of pitches that create complex interference patterns. As voice and organ weave in and out of one another, overtone singing reinforces the partials resonating in the space, forming one breathing, pulsating mass of sound.

Dylan Kerr (b. 1996, Ireland) is an artist working between performance and sound. Their practice is deeply attuned to place, often creating works that engage with the unique resonant qualities and histories of specific environments. They combine process-based methods, microtonality, and extended vocal techniques to explore psychoacoustic phenomena such as beating, interference patterns, and the interplay between the voice and space.
