2008.
Mark Tamea returns to AtmoWorks with his second release "Tessellation", a completely new 47-minute journey through lush electro-acoustic soundscapes. Mark had this to say about his latest work:
"Tessellation...contains audio information gleaned from some powerful environments. I concentrated particularly on procuring sounds and samples on original landscapes, as well as from several buildings washed in centuries of dedicated adoration. Amongst others, recordings were made in the aforementioned forests of the Ardenne, the Palais des Papes in Avignon, the glacial caves of Mount Blanc, and around the shoreline of the Lac de St. Croix, under whose waters lay the remains of a sunken village, Ste-Croix-de-Verdon. These were then interleaved with a second layer of recordings collected from daily experiences, and used as a basis to interpret the hidden lucidity I was searching for. Further emotional direction was emphasized with minimal orchestration and electro-acoustic elements.
It is my intention that the listener begins an excursion drifting slowly further out of phase with baseline awareness, and that some of the morphic resonance collected from these locations makes it into their psychic construction kit. The album is divided into five parts for convenience, but is designed to be regarded as one piece."
