Details https://www.recordedfields.net/installations/lofoten-open-form-pavilion-of-air/ (Bla nedover for Norsk tekst) Walk very slowly to allow sounds to enter gradually, notice the borders of these zones where new sounds fade-in, spend time in some places to notice the long sounds develop.

“Lofoten Åpen Form Paviljong av Luft” (Lofoten Open Form Pavilion of Air) is a floating roof of sound extending across areas in front and behind Kunstkvarteret Lofoten, triggered by GPS and accessed via a smartphone, headphones and the echoes.xyz app. Inspired by Polish architects Oskar & Zofia Hansen’s “Open Form” architectural concept (ca. 1959), this audiowork is one of 15 locations in 9 countries in the pan-European Open Form Pavilion of Air series, using sound and site-mapping to offer a playful renewal and reframing of public space as an essential place of engagement for the community. By walking through different zones outside Kunstkvarteret Lofoten while using your mobile phone, the Echoes app and headphones, you become a participatory listener producing a composition in real-time. Your navigation creates a unique choreography via GPS, combining and changing sounds mapped along the site outside the main building through the app. Hear this unique Arctic location and its context become transformed by the sounds forming this floating acoustic architecture, revealing an immersive, profoundly spatial and physical experience. The Pavilion has no visible presence outside the app and can only be accessed and enjoyed on-site at Kunstkvarteret Lofoten.

NORSK Gå veldig sakte for å la lydene komme gradvis inn, legg merke til grensene for disse sonene der nye lyder fades inn, bruk tid på noen steder for å legge merke til de lange lydene som utvikler seg.

"Lofoten Åpen Form Paviljong av Luft" er et flytende lydtak som strekker seg over områder foran og bak Kunstkvarteret Lofoten, utløst av GPS og tilgjengelig via en smarttelefon, hodetelefoner og echoes.xyz-appen. Inspirert av de polske arkitektene Oskar & Zofia Hansens arkitektoniske konsept "Open Form" (ca. 1959), er dette lydverket ett av 15 steder i 9 land i den paneuropeiske Open Form Pavilion of Air-serien, som bruker lyd og stedskartlegging for å tilby en leken fornyelse og omforming av det offentlige rom som et viktig sted for samfunnsengasjement.

Ved å gå gjennom ulike soner utenfor Kunstkvarteret Lofoten mens du bruker mobiltelefonen din, Echoes-appen og hodetelefoner, blir du en deltakende lytter som produserer en komposisjon i sanntid. Navigasjonen din skaper en unik koreografi via GPS, som kombinerer og endrer lydene som er kartlagt utenfor hovedbygningen gjennom appen. Hør dette unike arktiske stedet og konteksten bli forvandlet av lydene som danner denne flytende akustiske arkitekturen, og få en oppslukende, romlig og fysisk opplevelse. Paviljongen har ingen synlig tilstedeværelse utenfor appen og kan kun oppleves på Kunstkvarteret Lofoten.

His recorded output includes "Tailte Cré-Umha (Bronze Lands)" and "SIRÈNE", pipe organ works, for his Recorded Fields Editions; "Oltre" and "Built Through" for LINE imprint; and "Climata", recorded in 15 of James Turrell’s Skyspaces across 9 countries.

Works and installations produced include those for National Gallery of Australia, National Museum of Poland (Krakow), Palazzo Grassi (Venice), Transmediale (Berlin) and National Sculpture Factory (IRL). "Curgenven makes the point that sounds are fundamental to our perception of the world... hearing the complexities of a place and time is intersected by memories of the familiar which are in turn displaced and transformed.” Realtime Magazine (AUS) “Behind the music lurk such [disparate] presences as Alvin Lucier, King Tubby, Murray Schafer and Eliane Radigue.” The Wire Magazine (UK)
