As an expert collaborator of NGO KONTEJNER, engineer and artist Miodrag Gladović is involved in multichannel sound diffusion projects, both in terms of production and as an educator: he designed and ran a workshop that offered the participants a theoretical background and practical experience of working with multichannel speaker systems, after which he set up a multichannel studio in which four participants could continue their training and create individual works. The musicians premiered their compositions at the first edition of Motions, in June 2021, while this year, their mentor Miodrag Gladović will premiere his spatial-sound composition.
The work was commissioned and produced by KONTEJNER.
