Özcan Saraç :: Copnvvvs (Kaer’Uiks)

Özcan Saraç creates fields of research using information processing and structures, with the purpose of questioning the human being’s relation to the universal system, logic and political mechanisms.

Devastating by design

As a musician in experimental composition and electronic performance, Özcan Saraç is also a contemporary artist working in research / knowledge as medium and live installations. He creates fields of research using information processing and structures, with the purpose of questioning the human being’s relation to the universal system, logic and political mechanisms. His work has been exhibited in London, Paris, New York, Istanbul, Zurich, Geneva, Basel and Milan.

Copnvvvs is Özcan Saraç’s full debut release on Kaer’Uiks. An experimental glitched-out demonstration in generative forms. Whilst within the musical realms the name may be new to ears, including my own, Saraç’s takes a giant leap into the heavyweight pantheon of the experimental genre by bringing years of artistry into scope.

Devastating by design, for over an hour we are baptized in digital holy-water. Hard to catch a breath, it is abrasive on many levels—notions tilt to singular melodics in some parts, but mostly we are embargoed from taking solace in tuneful instances. That is not to say to stay clear, merely come in prepared and to really enjoy all of Copnvvvs, in its entirety. Let someone who is a master of their craft take you through this existential outing; Özcan Saraç shows veteran knowledge on their debut.

Copnvvvs is available on Kaer’Uiks. [Bandcamp]
