SNUFF

SNUFF !! It is the parasitic kidnapping of live radio broadcast to turn it into a single sound matter: no interviews, no news, no music, no announcements, without all those conventions that have been generated around the radio medium. The sound planes disappear.

It is the break with narrative continuity. An alternative system is formed around the inclusion of the parasite. The live radio and the parasite working together to exclude the noisy intermediary, the relationship between sender and receiver is once again transformed. The parasite is a productive, generative force.

Let’s listen to the radio together. How if it is a SNUFF movie, the radio star will die.

Agnès Pe (Lleida, 1985) holds a BA in Audiovisual Communication and followed the MA course in Social Communication at Universitat Pompeu Fabra. She pursued some of her studies in Mexico City.

A researcher and self-taught musicologist, she is interested in the exception, that which brushes up against the social margins, and particularly in the environment that generates audio content via the Internet (prosumers), such as the remix and the cut-up. She works with sound as a physical material and disregards any limitation imposed by musical genres or styles. Her audio production seeks new ways of relating to the elements that she recomposes using atonality, altered melodies and strident textures. Fundamental characteristics of her oeuvre are her boundless curiosity, interdisciplinary practices, the limits of the context and the deceptive stance she adopts towards the various elements with which she works. Speeded-up classical, symphonic eurodance, punch melodies, black midi, happy slapped, terminal punch, humpatech, crossover thrash, no genre, midtechno, hardlaptop and powermid are just some of the labels that could be used to define her music.Agnès Pe (Lleida, 1985) holds a BA in Audiovisual Communication and followed the MA course in Social Communication at Universitat Pompeu Fabra.
