We are surrounded by noises and sensory overstimulation, wherever we go, sit, shit, sleep… Out of sheer need, I’m interested in a world of thoughts, actions, music and so forth, which reflects the cultural situation and is reflective. What’s needed today is not faster, higher, stronger, louder - I want to know all about “the lull in the storm”.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;an interview with radu malfatti by dan warburton, feb 2001&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.paristransatlantic.com/magazine/interviews/malfatti.html" target="_blank"&gt;paris transatlantic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/158496843</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/158496843</guid><pubDate>Sat, 08 Aug 2009 13:02:14 +0300</pubDate><category>music</category></item><item><title>bodrum-tr, august 2009</title><description>&lt;img src="http://7.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrquogvdhnMGg0YAQo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;bodrum-tr, august 2009&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/157982643</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/157982643</guid><pubDate>Fri, 07 Aug 2009 19:30:23 +0300</pubDate><category>photography</category></item><item><title>etlefeucomme_netlabel</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.etlefeucomme.be/index.htm"&gt;etlefeucomme_netlabel&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;p&gt;_________ this label is interested especially to forms of the minimalism, including if possible the silence…&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/156365054</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/156365054</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 Aug 2009 15:24:38 +0300</pubDate><category>music</category></item><item><title>taiwan, 2005-6, marc behrens, a narrow angle</title><description>&lt;img src="http://11.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrqpzv7ylzpITwwkKo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;taiwan, 2005-6, marc behrens, a narrow angle&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/155549577</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/155549577</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2009 12:50:38 +0300</pubDate><category>music</category></item><item><title>bodrum-tr, august 2009</title><description>&lt;img src="http://21.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrqpck7gcQheLZuojo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;bodrum-tr, august 2009&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/155195920</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/155195920</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2009 01:58:13 +0300</pubDate><category>photography</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://3.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq4n7wqjvzllfPYZo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/145288283</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/145288283</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2009 14:13:25 +0300</pubDate><category>photography</category></item><item><title>solaristics, july 2009</title><description>&lt;img src="http://18.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq1kgyu7TTtUUbdgo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://6.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq1kgyu7TTtUUbdgo2_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq1kgyu7TTtUUbdgo3_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://22.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq1kgyu7TTtUUbdgo4_r1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://15.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrq1kgyu7TTtUUbdgo7_r1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;solaristics, july 2009&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/144016427</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/144016427</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2009 10:33:00 +0300</pubDate><category>photography</category></item><item><title>Praxis reviewed by Loop.cl</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Cem Güney is a Turkish-born sound artist who started within the jazz music field playing the trumpet. He studied music in California and he’s a DJ since 1994. “Praxis” is the debut album on Portuguese Cronica Electronica label, furthermore a compilation appearance on “V/A Mus….c”, (Cronica, 2008). Güney works both synthetic and recorded sound as source material which processed by software. “A Phonetics Theme” opens with a wide range of recorded voices. “Impulse” is built out of tiny digital sounds, while “Undulations (dedicated to Janek Schaefer)” is a loop of a string section that changed into flickering tones penetrating dark moods.“Factitious Phobia” is a combination of electroacoustic sounds, recorded voices and underrated Middle Eastern music. The piano deliver harmonic notes which sound quite strange alongwith such abstract sounds. “Praxis” is composed by digital microsounds, some of them Morse like and unidentifiable snippets.“Behold Now Bhikkus, The Sounds of Nada Yoga” comprised the meditation through sound and there are some vowels with especial characteristics and meanings worked by Güney as processed voices. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Guillermo Escudero, &lt;a href="http://www.loop.cl/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=559&amp;Itemid=27" target="_blank"&gt;LOOP&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/144011792</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/144011792</guid><pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2009 10:22:36 +0300</pubDate><category>music</category></item><item><title>a dialogue from Solaris</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;snout&lt;/b&gt;: when a man is happy, the meaning of life and other themes of eternity rarely interest him. these questions should be asked at the end of one’s life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;kris&lt;/b&gt;: we don’t know when our life will end, that’s why we’re in a hurry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;snout&lt;/b&gt;: the happiest people are those who never bother asking those cursed  questions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;kris&lt;/b&gt;: we question life to seek out some meaning. yet to preserve all the simple human truths we need mysteries. the mystery of happiness, death, love.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;snout&lt;/b&gt;: you may be right. but try not to think about it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;kris&lt;/b&gt;: to think about it is the same as to know the day of one’s death.&lt;br/&gt;not knowing that date makes us practically immortal. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;::: &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_(1972_film)" target="_blank"&gt;solaris&lt;/a&gt; :::&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/142054686</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/142054686</guid><pubDate>Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:18:19 +0300</pubDate><category>film</category></item><item><title>untitled, july 2009</title><description>&lt;img src="http://21.media.tumblr.com/e3KelqnRrprqnnh4HDZmgTFxo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;untitled, july 2009&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/139580314</link><guid>http://impulse.tumblr.com/post/139580314</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Jul 2009 13:28:38 +0300</pubDate><category>photography</category></item></channel></rss>
