Isolation was initially composed in 2012 as part of the installation
"Zwei Zellen/Hörgang Bautzen II" by Moritz von Rappard and Thomas
Ritschel at the former Stasi prison Bautzen II, in Bautzen, Germany.
This notorious prison, actively used from 1956 to 1989, held political
prisoners under severe incommunicado incarceration conditions.

Isolation undertakes an auditive journey along the narrow edges
between the inner and outer acoustic world. This work attempts to
explore and interpret the impact of longtime sensory deprivation and
how this environment changes the auditory perception of prisoners as
well as such effects as perceptual disorders and tinnitus.

Richard Chartier's LINE publishes editions documenting compositional & installation works by international sound artists & composers exploring the aesthetics of minimalism.
