Vibrational Semantics / TEXST
Vibrational Semantics focuses on the elaboration, documentation and investigation of the voice. The publications and sound works in the series explore the voice’s ability to shift seamlessly between signification and sonority, from speech sound to noise. Questions of linguistic ambiguity, embodied voicing and the feeling/ meaning are investigated in relation to the place and presence of the performed voice. So far, this has included visual scores, creative essays, interdisciplinary writing and sound works commissioned from artists, writers, performers and vocalists.
The project started as part of artist and writer Samuel Brzeski’s ongoing artistic engagement with Lydgalleriet, who funded the first series of commissioned text works, but is now an independent press run by Samuel.
TEXST is an art collective and publishing press based between Bergen, Norway and Helsinki, Finland.
We explore the presence of text in visual art in all of its manifestations. Our title, TEXST, embodies our approach – testing text-based work in any and all forms. Up to this point, this has consisted of workshops, residencies, and a series of collective and individual publications.
TEXST was established in 2016, and is currently Samuel Brzeski, Lucila Mayol, Robin Everett, and Pedro Riva.
