the Flâneur 5’11’’ stereo

A sonic dérive through a city that opens as a landscape even while it closes around as a room, echoing Walter Benjamin’s flâneur — the casual wanderer who walks, observes, and listens as history folds into the present.

Drawn from a summer’s drift across the land, this piece traces the almost paradoxical texture of modernity: streets that once bore the residue of upheaval now murmur with digital signals, while new infrastructures rise not as monuments of permanence but as corridors of ceaseless motion. Beneath the façade of acceleration, the ear catches palimpsests of older rhythms — markets where silence once lingered, overpasses where echoes coil and dissolve. It is in these fleeting intersections that the flâneur pauses, neither outside nor fully within, suspended between memory and its erasure.

Composed primarily in Logic, the Flâneur unfolds as an inner soundwalk:
a meditation on velocity, resonance, and the dialectics of place.
