In a Convex Mirror
NEW ALBUM - 2025 | REALISE DATE TBA
"In a Convex Mirror" is a nearly hour-long improvised conversation constrained by conceptual frames, exploring and extending the inherent potential of each instrument. Using sonoristic techniques, a variety of articulation as well as the subtle company of unusual sound objects - all this conjures the spirit of Dadaism and electroacoustic abstraction.
The title draws inspiration from John Ashbery’s poem suggesting a contemplation of perception and reality. As Ashbery states, “The surface / Of the mirror being convex, / the distance increases / Significantly” Loom TM’s music distorts perspectives, provokes and invites individual interpretation..
The program was recorded in December 2024 surrounded by the Toy Piano Gallery exhibition in Wrocław. The band used an acoustic reverb generator - steel cello made by Paweł Romańczuk. The recordings and mix were made by Artur Majewski.
