Points of Inaccessibility<\/em><\/strong> is an album with an origin that offers an effective contrast to the dilemmas posed by its internal theme. It all began with a chance face-to-face meeting between Ibero-American composer Rafael Anton Irisarri<\/strong> and Dutch media artist Jaco Schilp<\/strong> which took place at the MUTEK festival in Mexico City two years ago. The direct human connection and conversation that ensued led to the development of a project that revolved around ideas about how technology shapes perception in a world where connections between people are largely remote, mediated, influenced and even manipulated.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The two artists agreed to a residency at Uncloud, a non-profit art collective in Utrecht co-directed by Schilp that includes a studio housed inside what was formerly a forensic psychiatric clinic. It was there that Irisarri laid the foundation of the music we hear on the record using bowed guitars, pedals, and looping techniques which Schilp processed through point-cloud software generating abstract imagery in what is described as a state of constant flux. Referencing the concept of Poles of Inaccessibility<\/em> \u2013 geographic locations defined not by their features but rather by their unreachable distance \u2013 the duo began to explore the paradox of alienation in a hyper connected world through sound and images.<\/p>\n

What appears to be a fully connected network often produces a deeper kind of separation, one shaped by the filtering logic of the systems that mediate experience. In this sense, the digital sphere mirrors its geographic counterpart. We inhabit spaces saturated with signals, yet the possibility of genuine contact becomes increasingly remote.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
