Techniseptic by Techniseptic

Text from the vinyl insert:

The conductor employs mind-altering sonic structures using the rhythms emanating from the organs of the human body, such as the heart and the brain, exploring various phenomena surrounding the body and the psyche.

The heart’s magnetic field, which is the most powerful rhythmic field produced by the human body, not only envelops every cell of the body, but also extends in all directions into the space around us. Concurrently, brainwaves are measured to have properties of strong electromagnetic and acoustic signals which are running through neuro synapses in the brain.

The impact of external fields, such as electromagnetic radiation of new communication technologies and noise pollution in urban areas, and mechanical vibrations all make an impact on the human body and perception. While being exposed to electromagnetic pollution, radiation, and microwave weaponry in our current technologized world, the human organs change their patterns, and the biological rhythms are being affected in multiple ways.

The brainwaves which carry the parameters determining human health are being tapped into by technology, causing arrhythmic behaviour and electronic apathy. Among the often overlooked problems caused by contemporary technologies are the hazards of electromagnetic pollution, which are arguably more threatening than climate change. The hazards from electromagnetic pollution (or EMF pollution) can take various forms. It can be electrical hazards, fire hazards, biological hazards, and DNA fragmentation. Electrified objects, fields and bodies of the invisible world interact and create emerging movements, patterns and super-sensory phenomena.

Pareidolia is a phenomenon when the brain recognises an object, pattern, sound, or meaning where there is none. Seeing faces in the clouds, hearing voices in the static noise. In this case study, the aforementioned elements interact and create subliminal associations and shapes. They give way to an emergent abstracted thought process, in which internal patterns are seeking to build a link with recognized surroundings.

Techniseptic is using sound therapy practices, field and body scanning in order to bridge atmospheric toxicity and healing. The album’s compositions are like medicinal soundscapes performed as a séance session, scanning for synchronicities in and between coexisting internal body parameters and external stimuli, thoughts and wireless transmissions, mood, breathing, and oscillating electronic devices.

What is it like to be hearing a thought going through another object?

Or perhaps even what is the sound of afterlife?

The project Techniseptic was presented in various galleries, museums and venues throughout Europe:
Contemporary Art Centre, Vilnius (2018), Ujazdowsky Castle for Contemporary Art, Warsaw (2018),
Project Space Festival Berlin (2019), Jauna Muzika Festival Vilnius (2020), Arka Gallery, Vilnius (2022).

An experimental ambient/techno music project started by the artist Jokūbas Čižikas in 2018.
Investigating the balances between pollution, healing, inner body processes and mental phenomena.
