POSTHUMANO

The process:

The sound compositions that I have created for this project are trying to speak of the post-human moment in which we find ourselves or are soon to live. The post human is an ongoing phenomenon. It is a hypothesis about the type of subject we are transforming into ”(Braidotti 2019) Immersed in a pandemic and self-helped by technologies, social networks and algorithms, we already living in a new moment, we are a different us, a new us. Some of the names used to describe music such as ambient, kraut rock, space rock and phsych refer to the post human if we analyze it from a futuristic perspective. I think that referring to those sounds was the most appropriate if I wanted to explore the post human concept in my sound compositions. In the compositions I have wanted to recreate a circular sensation, since in the post human experience there is a disconnection with the organic and we enter a “out of time” (Byung-Chul Han 2009). It is as if this new era of the post human will catapult us to a non-beginning, an endless. A presentism of now and always now encloses us forever in a kind of trip that always returns to the same place, like losing ourselves in another dimension knowing that we are, but we are not, we feel, we listen, but we are not, like the other dimension of the story told in the movie Interstellar. There is always a minimalist presence, a sound experimentation, oscillations, noises, that try to recreate spaces, moments and experiences in what I compose and the post-human experience does not move away from these processes. There are layers that suddenly stand out and others that constantly rotate giving the circular sensation of starting a journey where when you arrive what you see is the beginning and this is repeated over and over again without end like the punishment of Sisyphus. Posthumano narrates from the sound an endless loop, the new human experience, the new we are, a we in which we do not know what to expect where we cannot see the end, only the constant from an algorithm that turns in circles and repeats itself making us believe that we exist when in reality it seems that we simply do not exist. "Inconclusion becomes a permanent state"(Byung-Chul Han 2009). Being immersed in a post human experience results in an ambiguity that provokes a need for infinite questioning, multiple questions that do not end because that is what the post human experience provokes, a constant infinity, never knowing what we are, where we are. , where are we going. Sound loops from minimalism where repetition is constant.

The Antagonism:
In turn, discourse and post-human experiences place us in a kind of universal advance and transform us into a new species. It is to use that circular space in a loop in which we find ourselves to resurface, reinvent ourselves, recreate a new transdisciplinary, post-species, multispecies being with capacities never seen before with the power to direct us towards an infinite 2nd life in connection with everything. How is that power built? I try with music ...
