“There is such a spontaneous but rich dialogue between image and sound that I sometimes forget which come first, as an idea. Did I actually ‘see’ the image before? Or did the idea that it would resonate come because I had a sound in mind that made me recognize it as an image?”-Armin Lorenz Gerold in conversation with Lori E. Allen
“Listening is a form of understanding, too. It is not passive perception; it is highly selective and arbitrary. When we listen, we pay attention; we dissect the words that we hear, their meanings, sensations, tone, ring and shape, internally, in our minds. We may notice the effect of specifics sounds on out physical body. We may shiver, contract, wink or raise our brows. Listening connects to our rationality as much as it cultivates our emotional response to what or who we are listening to in a particular moment. It could be a person, it could be the city, it could be as plain as water.
Listing is a paradox, which requires distance as much as it requires the idea of closeness-perceptual proximity through fundamental remoteness. In Manuel, Armin Lorenz Gerold is interested in the potential this paradox can reveal: to create a sensual space in which the unknown territory could suddenly, once again, become more interesting than a map of worn-out paths.”-Shahin Zarinbal
