Taku Unami & Eric La Casa – KINDLING #1 - Parazoan Mapping #2 [NEWSPAPER]

"I am super excited and humbled to announce the upcoming release of Taku Unami and Eric La Casa’s Parazoan Mapping #2, as the first edition of a new project called KINDLING.

Through their individual practices, Taku Unami and Eric La Casa have contributed greatly to what we think about how we listen and practice sound and music, and often indirectly challenging where these two tightly linked categories might collide or overlap. Parazoan Mapping #2 continues their published collaboration started on Erstwhile recordings in 2015, with the highly recommended Parazoan Mapping. In keeping with their preference to avoid word-based explanation, I will write no more about Parazoan Mapping #2 and let the work speak for itself.

Kindling is an evolving publication series exploring the intersection of digitally shared sound and printed image and text; each worked together or against each other to open a site of conversation for community of makers, listeners and readers by testing new modes of presentation and distribution. While the material form may be less-than-precious, ephemeral or even recyclable, we hope the ideas, feelings or actions it may encourage will remain.

KINDLING, 2024
