Bridging ancient ritual and modern technology, this work reflects on how digital signals collide and merge with the spiritual silence of the Himalayas.
Year: 2022
Role: Artist
Type of Project: Electroacoustic / Experimental Music Composition
Charlotte Ke used Buchla and Moog synthesizers at Studio B, NYU Steinhardt.
Inspired by the sacred call of Tibet and the majesty of its towering peaks, this composition captures the vast stillness and transcendent beauty of distant mountain realms. Using Buchla and Moog synthesizers, Charlotte sculpts expansive, echoing soundscapes layered with live-recorded vocals and unconventional percussion, transforming everyday kitchen bowls into resonant instruments. Blending electronic and acoustic textures, the piece invites listeners into a meditative space, a sonic journey that feels both grounded and expansive.
