Mensa project was born on the spring 2006 when I was studying in Sweden. the project started to have a concret form after a few months working with the software. The plan was to develope a personal perspective abaut sound experimentation. The project was concived with the aim to be showed outdoors.
All the sounds that I process are thinked to be listened outside, in public spaces or natural enviroments. The whole concept of Mensa project goes arround the idea of estimulate a dialogue between sound experimentation with high-tech possibilities and the natural enviroment, the landscape and the countryside.
I found aswell interesting to remark that a big percentage of the tracks that I have been recording are produced in casual places. On trips, on the train, in a bibliotech, up in the top of a hill or waiting for the bus. I think it’s really interesting to find other places where to bring your laptop an experiment with different enviroments to see what can happen.
The process of production of the tracks goes arround the idea of something that it’s flowing. I start to work in a concret drone or pad and it can develope in something or not. Nothing it’s really planed in the process of production so improvitsation plays a really important role on the process.
On the live sets I use to play togheter with Albert Lizàrraga (aka Desmaro). With him I have developed a personal aproach on the concept of a live sesions. Be try to work as freely as we can regarding that audio and visuals have to have the same importance in the whole conception of this kind of Time-based art.
