about

Unconditional Love, a collection of two incredibly singular mixer feedback works, typified Yan Jun’s investigations into tonality and pitch. Having created a series of related works over the years, this piece perhaps summarises these concerns. Each of the extended performances pushes at the edges of our auditory capacities. Occasionally they fall beyond what we might readily appreciate and in those moments we are asked to consider our own physiology and its particularities.
