Vinculum

2010-ongoing | artist edition 3-CD sets
set of 3 randomly selected CD’s from Coppice’s sonic artifact archive stuffed in hand-embroidered pouch

Vinculum (2010-ongoing) is a growing archive of sonic artifacts and the first official release by Coppice. Sounds are recorded and reduced to highlight some aspects at the expense of others. Each recording is released on its own single-track CD-R with an inscribed catalog number.

Currently, the project is being made available as a unique, made-to-order hand-made, hand-embroidered pouch containing several different discs selected at the time the pouch is filled. Also as the Specimen Edition. The listener is encouraged to play the discs simultaneously on repeat from multiple players when possible.

Press

The range of amplitude and density of each of the pieces contributes to a rather startling mix. Where similar projects would get bogged down in three separate ‘songs’, the listener instead gets the sense of three parts of a whole.
