OCCULT VOICES - PARANORMAL MUSIC: Recordings of unseen Intelligences

An audio session and presentation by THOMAS KNOEFEL founder of Supposé Records


In this session Thomas Knoefel director of the Brigade Commerz Audio Arts Archives and philosophy label Supposé will introduce the project "Occult voices - paranormal music: Recordings of unseen Intelligences 1905 - 2007". 

"This CD compilation contains original recordings from ostensible paranormal phenomena such as trance speech, direct voices, xenoglossy and glossolalia, paranormal music, rappings, poltergeist manifestation and electronic voice phenomena.

Although "occult" phenomena are an integral part of cultural history, their "reality" is discussed controversially. For the recordings collected here the question was not so much whether such phenomena are "real" or "manipulated", illusion or deception, supernatural-otherwordly or simply of human nature. They are rather presented as authentic documents with their particular with their particular atmosphere and their characteristic intensity. Our goal was to demonstrate, with a phenomenological overview, the audible diversity and the width in form and content of such phenomena. Some of the audio examples could hardly be categorized because paranormal events admit different interpretations. For instance, when is a poltergeist case a case of possession, or vice versa? Or how clear and reliable is the distinction of xenoglossy and glossolalia?

Many of the tape recordings enforce themselves with astonishingly dramatic intensity - they represent the human condition under exceptional circumstances - and: they place us into the position of a witness. They mediate to our perception what was obvious to those who listened in the darkness of the seance room and comprehended what happened by purely auditive sensation.'" T.K.
