During the residency at Buinho Creative Hub in Messejana, Portugal, I composed a work titled Miragens (Mirages). It is a work that explores the soundscape as a central format but with a treatment that develops musically. I made field recordings in places like the central square, gardens, interiors, bars and public events, as well as recording with special interest in elements of nature, machines, objects and dialogues. Some of these recordings were edited and manipulated using some synthesis tools and digital processes. The sound derivations seek to evoke a eurythmy between matter and memory, where the atmospheres are articulated and the elements propagate resonances in time. Miragens was presented at the Centro de Atividades (Messejana Activity Center) and is part of the cultural heritage of Buinho and the community.
