One of the most notorious hatemongers in movie history is Captain Ahab from John Huston"s 1956 classic Moby Dick. His manic monologues cast a spell on generations of viewers. Berlin based musician and sound artist Jan Jelinek has now turned the voice of Ahab into a musical instrument. Faitiche presents Jan Jelinek"s soundtrack for SEASCAPE - polyptych, an audio-visual software developed in collaboration with Canadian new media artist Clive Holden in 2022. SEASCAPE - polyptych is based on image and acoustic source material from Moby Dick. While Holden works on manipulating film sequences, the voice of Ahab plays a central role in Jan Jelinek"s soundtrack. The dynamic volume and tone of the captain"s speech control a synthesizer system that turns Ahabs voice into ten abstract soundscapes.[info sheet from distr.]
