MAQAM MIRAGE. TRILOGY OF THE DESERT
, 2025Sound work
8’22’’ loop
MAQAM MIRAGE is an audio processing that alludes to a vast landscape flooded with light.
A sort of modulation, a refrain that slowly creeps into the listener’s ears until it almost takes possession of the breathing.
It has an undulating nature – speaks of distance and echo – all striving toward a conclusion that never comes.
Blinded, vaguely metallic and persuasive, it is a track with a singular vocation for spatiality, a mirage of liquefaction under the effect of heat and light, a hallucination as alluring as it is disorienting.
- Alberto Tadiello, Maqam Mirage. Trilogy Of The Desert , sound work, 8’22’’ loop, 2025
