Forms of paper
forms of paper was created for the exhibition ‘six degrees - art in the
libraries’—a group exhibition of site specific works for public libraries around
los angeles. the soundwork was created using electronically manipulated
sounds of book pages being rubbed, scraped, turned, etc. 8 speakers were
placed on a small pedestal in an atrium in a hollywood branch of the library,
along with a series of paper ‘drawings’ made from discarded library books. the
work was playing very softly within the library space continuously for one
month. — steve roden, 2001

Statement
My work explores the inter-relationships between the spatial nature of sound,
silence, focus, perception, and the act of listening itself. I seek to create a complex
textural field which engages via listening, as opposed to musicality.
The sometimes near-inaudible character of the sounds I utilize are the result of an
incremental and meticulous process of reduction which respects their sculptural
integrity. Compositions often explore an implied silence, finely structured and in
some cases cyclical. They are best experienced at low volumes or on headphones.
The use of extended durations push listeners into even deeper areas of attention,
concentration, and focus.
