The musicians of Luope explores the realm of what the musicians call Magnified Micro Music. The ensemble creates soundscape using maximally cranked microphones placed close to their acoustic instruments played at a whisper’s volume. This technique allows them to explore a sonic field that is not often heard, much like a magnifying glass for sound. The inspiration for this unique approach comes from British photographer Levon Biss’ super-magnified images of insects, which reveal unseen spellbinding patterns and colours. The music uncovers a universe of subtle sonics and offers a captivating new perspective on the world of sound, just as Biss’ photos do on the world of insects.
