ARIADNE - Stabat Mater




About

release date: 2017.10.27
format: Cassette / Digital / WebGL
label: Auris Apothecary
website: ariadnedigital.net/releases/stabat-mater

    Stabat Mater is a 20 movement cycle of audio/visual ecstatic visions, and is being released as a purely musical work on cassette tape and as an interactive audio/visual web based experience. Stabat Mater  is heavily inspired by the visions of female Christian mystics Hildegard von Bingen and Teresa of Ávila. The lyrics for Stabat Mater include adaptations of writings from these mystics fused together with text taken from surrealist poet Aase Berg's With Deer and Dark Matter (both translated by Johannes Göranssonand published by Black Ocean).

The album art features features a full body scan that I created in my apartment with 4 DSLRs. To read more about the A/V component of the work see ARIADNE - Grief Divine or the Stabat Mater website.
