Cnuasach de phairteagail na réadúlachta: fuaim is fís ó Choill an Droma Mhóir. Suiteáil físe is fuaime.
A collection of reality-particles: sounds and images from Dromore Wood. An audiovisual installation.
Taifeadadh fileata allamuigh is ea tríd an gcoill le Séamas Cain. Athdhúisíonn sé an siúl a dhein an file trí Choill an Droma Mhóir i gContae an Chláir i mí an Mheithimh 2008. Báitear an léitheoir/cuairteoir in aigéan friotail agus i mbraislí focal. An éifeacht atá ag tríd an gcoill ar dhaoine áirithe ná go mbraitheann siad faoi bhriocht, faoi mar a bheadh píobaire breac éigin tar éis iad a mhealladh isteach i gcoill lena shiollaí diamhra.
Tá an dealbhóir fuaime agus ealaíontóir Slavek Kwi tar éis suiteáil a chur le chéile, fís is fuaim arb iad taifeadtaí faoi uisce agus taifeadtaí allamuigh i gCoill an Droma Mhóir a bhfoinse. Chuaigh nithe pleanáilte agus neamhphleanáilte isteach sa saothar uathúil seo agus cloisfear tríd an gcoill á aithris chomh maith ag Séamas Cain. Beidh an tsuiteáil oscailte don phobal sa City Arts i gcaitheamh IMRAM. Cruthóidh tríd an gcoill spás uathúil chun sásamh thar na bearta a bhaint as briathra agus an dúlra i gcleamhnas álainn fuaime is físe lena chéile.
tríd an gcoill by Séamas Cain is a poetic field recording. It evokes a walk through Dromore Wood in County Clare. It immerses the reader in a stream of words and word-clusters. The overall effect is hypnotic, as we are led by a piped piper into the heart of the wood.
Sound artist Slavek Kwi has created an audiovisual installation from underwater and field recordings captured in Dromore Wood, and fused these with Séamas Cain's recital of tríd an gcoill This installation will be open to the public in City Arts. tríd an gcoill creates a unique space in which one can experience nature and language through sounds and visions of uncanny beauty.
