Oskar Tomala - sound artist, composer and multi-instrumentalist based in Copenhagen and Gdańsk. Working in the field of electro-acoustic composition, site specific sound installations and music for motion pictures. Their work focuses on the phenomenology of intensity, ambiguity and possibility as it manifests in the perception of tones, sounds, harmony and other forms of harmonicity. Oskar is interested in how our ways of listening expending our perceptual experience. His current explorations are oriented towards the research for interaction of harmonic sound with architecture space, by performing with site specific multichannel systems, capturing acoustic resonance and measuring space impulses then by merging with the search in timbres of acoustic instruments, sine waves, white noises and sound processing. As a composer, Oskar works extensively with just intonation harmony and composes for both acoustic instruments and sound synthesis.
During his internship at EMS, Oskar will continue his work with research of interaction of tones and noises with a particular interest in exploring juxtaposition of prepared samples with the Buchla system in relation to spatialization in liminal spaces.
