Idea: Create a destruction loop intended to be played in reverse - a resurrection loop. Play the tape in reverse across your normal destruction tools, then play the recorded sound forwards again so you have a destroyed noisy mess that slowly heals into beautiful sounds!
This might be the most profound musical installation I have ever seen, I'm in tears. The destruction makes it feel like the rerocdings fade into the past. Thank you Hainbach and collaborators. I really need to watch the other two episodes.
I’m so incredibly touched by the trans people who submitted. I share their stories and feel represented by their courage. Love you all, and love this project. Thanks so much, Hainbach!!
Thanks. When I transitioned (way back in the nineties) I used to just plain show up places, relishing the extent to which my presence made people uncomfortable. In allowing a voice to my community, it is my sincere hope that you expand the breadth of all communities. And yeah; electronic music is kind of amazing that way, isn't it? :)
i was really worried that when i scrolled down, i would see a bunch of transphobic comments. i don't know how much hainbach curates his comments section, but it was cool to see none of that here, and just a supportive community.
@@danielleohallisey4218 plus of course Wendy Carlos has cast a spell on the field ensuring we’ll be drawn to it … :) just as Sophie Wilson did for computers
It feels like art and artist merging. I dont know if this fits. Edit: this deserves more than the strage smily in my comment. What a beautiful and haunting creation.
Oh gosh... the one in french really hit me hard... For any non speakers out there, here is the translation : "i shouldn't have gone alone, pretty things shouldn't be kept just for oneself"
These Destruction Loops are brilliant and beautiful and hard projects, and I deeply respect where you have taken Simon's original idea. Truly powerful art!
Thanks for including me in this project, I was incredibly moved and also slightly relieved hearing others open their hearts, we are not alone in carrying around this guilt. The ending was very fitting. -Chris
In 1978, as a long-term experiment, I bought one of every brand of tape cassette available, about 10, and recorded vinyl onto them. In 2008, of the 8 left whose physical mechanisms had not fallen apart they all played perfectly (except for the iron oxide tape, which disintegrated by the mid-1980s). Of the 3 remaining cassettes that were not lost in moves over the years (Ampex, Scotch, Maxell), I still don't notice any significant degradation. In conclusion, magnetic tape is pretty damned tough! :-)
A fascinating and beautiful concept. On the one hand, very introspective and even brutal to listen to, on the other hand, there is definitely a certain cathartic quality to being able to hear all that sorrow slowly erode, in time and fire. Keep up the amazing work!
Beautiful...this really transcends simple "composition" here; it's more akin to a ritual for healing. Even with all of the modern tech in use, the underlying concept is ancient. The installation is well worth repeating...and it _should_ be!
It takes courage to find beauty in these regrets, while leaving them behind. This is what art can do... it can let you bring your emotions forward and let them go. This was truly moving. Thank you, Hainbach, for the art you create.
This is released perfectly to fit with the first week of Lent. Your regret loops are a good reminder that we need to reflect on our impact on others. What we say and do have vast consequences on the well being of the people in our lives.
I'm trans, my dad died last week, we're in lockdown, my nine year old dog went blind 70% in the last few days. I'm cheerful listening to Hainbach videos. Life is a mystery.
It's fun to see how gentle you are with tapes that you want to destruct. (edit: this comment was made before the 6:55 mark ) Really heartbreaking stories. Very special indeed. You are brave to pull off something like this. Thank you.
One of my classmates used magnets hanging on strings, swinging like a pendulum over the tapeloops, and it worked really nice! The magnet makes tiny gaps in the audio everytime it swings by, wich give a really cool effect. Only thing is, that it will erase the whole loop pretty quickly (like 5-10 minutes)
One of the most beautiful projects I have ever experienced. There were at least a few times that I was almost brought to tears. To hear such intimacy treated with the level of respect that you observed was truly something special. Thank you!
Very cool concept, I imagine most would not understand the deep meaning behind this effort. I love it. For me it shows how the destruction of the tape represents time passing and eventually forget what we regret in life either through forgiveness from others that creates healing or we simply lost our capacity to remember it.
I like what William S Burroughs had to say for a publicity interview when someone asked him if there is anything he regrets in his life: "hardly a day goes by without something I did wrong, something I said wrong... and now you speak of lifetimes? Good lord: practically everything."
So very powerful, and the addition of flame really capped it. That elevates the result. I have some profound regrets: I know what I need to do now. Thank you.
Thank you for making these! I'm really excited for this one and would be watching as soon as it goes live if not for the fact I'll be teaching. I'm sure its going to be great and really do appreciate this
I know this is a slightly older video now, but hearing people talking about regrets got me thinking about my own. Upon reflection, the thing I regret most is never giving myself the respect I deserve... or any for that matter
Bro, you know the music is strong when the composer is taking deep breathes while listening to the elements. This is art. This means something. This isn't just someone trying to have fun and just expressing some emotions they feel or felt. This expresses issues that go farther than having a bad day, having a sour moment, having drama in your life. These are things that haunt people's souls and stuff that you can't just get over. You always kinda care about these types of things in a way. This video made me feel some intense emotions that no other video or movie has ever made me feel. Such a strong and relatable idea for any person. When you hear happy rave music with "pointless and repetitive" lyrics. This is the opposite of that. This is the balance. Not that one is better than the other. Or one is more needed. This just is the other side of the musical coin. This is the most human musical experience I've witnessed personally. Idk maybe this is a extreme and crazy way of putting it but this is just how it made me feel and my initial interpretation. I'm sure I'll experience this video until It's boring to me if thats possible :)
I remember watching the first Destruction Loop and thinking "Oh my god this would be an amazing art installation." Glad you did it, it's really beautiful. See you in MoMA! ;)
Love theese projects. I regret having the "no regrets" attitude towards a few things where it did not belong, being driven by others into bad sitiuations because they said I would loose out on a great oppertunety. I might have regretted not knowing what would happen, but the consequenses was devistating.
Brilliant work. The mechanical sounds between the spoken words were wonderful to, an altogether mesmerising experience, wish i was there...and from an existential point of view your words regarding your own experience , contain there own healing resonance .fantastic installation .
That was art in it's true form where it touches you. At least for me I had time to think about my regrets and at least try to look at them in more filtered out way.
I regret not recording a loop for this project. So I might as well share it here. Growing up, one of my cherished moments with my mother was the yearly April Fool's pranks we'd play with each other. One year, I was struggling to find something that would trick her good; I told her there was a cougar outside, attacking the birds. My mother, above all things, is a huge bird lover. Once she realized it was a prank she broke down and tears and anger, incredulous that I could be so thoughtlessly cruel. We never played April Fool's pranks again. That day haunts me 40 years later.
I regret selling my Akai 1700 4 track. I bought it with a blown fuse, had trouble with it, and after I sold it learned it was just needing some fresh lubricant so it could function properly again. Cosmetically it was in perfect condition, complete with the cover and all the accessories. That's $20 I would happily give back!
I am late to the show, but I find this particular declination of the project to be the most powerful one. I hope you got to do other such performances later, this has to be shared.
@@Hainbach I just watched the other vid. Boy, what a story !! Who the heck are these people anyway ? As if the most urgent political issue in a modern European city could be the public expenses over an avant-garde music festival ! Sigh ...

What you said about your father hit me really hard as I to was not the nicest to my father at times and did not give him the respect he deserved while he was alive. The generation gap I feel as well as the post war generation did not talk about feelings. Thanks for making this video.
I share a similar regrets to Hainbach, I've said some really mean things to my parents when I was young. Things that I am too embarrassed to apologize now, because I don't want them to remember it, or be reminded of it. I knew it affected them negatively at the time, but for some reason I _wanted_ to hurt them, like I was trying to punish them or something. I will probably never bring it up to my parents, and this regret will just fade into the sea of comments and my memory
What if you took the destruction loop tape shavings. And sprinkled them on single sided thin tape and played the sound that was destroyed. If that's even possible
Wow , the result sounds so....lonely and isolated. As if the sounds just appear from darkness, beautiful and unsettling at the same time.. Other idea; I'm sure you have heard Alvin Lucier's ' I'm sitting in a room' ? Keep re-recording the sounds in your room and use the space-recording as your resonator.
These are always so emotional. They remind me of that trio of albums using old bad recordings of songs but each one is just a little less “solid”. That was trying to be about dementia. This almost feels more like either learning to live with regrets, or how after some time you no longer know what has changed you. After so long your just sad and of such low self esteem.
Whatever your father did or did not do professionally, he did not deserve to hear that from his child. No doubt you knew from the moment of the silence you made a mistake. It is important to address our errors and cruelties as soon as possible, with compassion, and then not to repeat them. On the other hand, making these sorts of mistakes is part of childhood. If you have no more than this incident with your father, you did exceptionally well in your emotional growth. We all do such things at some point in childhood and throughout life. These things are all regrettable and all addressable, yet for the most part we fail to recognize them and even more often fail to take steps to set things right, for no good reason. If we would do better with such things, our relationships, our lives, and the world would be a much better place. The main thing is a sense of mutuality, compassion, and recognizing vulnerability, imperfection, and suffering in each of us, even while we may dwell in our desires or projections of indifference. It is not hard to be kinder to one another, but fear and anger tend to tempt us in different directions. Allowing those temptations to shrink us hurts us all. Thanks for another beautiful video.
My grandpa died yesterday. We were close when I was younger and I've always admired him. He programmed in assembly and taught me how to convert decimal/binary/hex by hand when I was a kid. I regret not spending time with him and not talking to him more than a couple of times per year. I didn't have an opportunity to say how much I loved him or say goodbye before he passed away. Its true that we value the most only things that we've already lost. Thanks Hainbach for this video. I saw it recommended just in-time to match my grief. I had a good cry both while listening to others' regrets and sharing my own in this comment. His name was Vadim Tsyomik. Rest in peace, grandpa.
I might know a way to get quicker results. They make those sanding spounges. Place the tape in between two of them that are held together with a few rubber bands. It would apply more uniform pressure to the tape instead of the sand paper.
Beautiful idea and performance. Thank you. Randomness for destruction is my inspiration from viewing this. An organic element maybe? Less uniform. Solvents, old used knife blades, or serated blades? Wire wool, or wire brushes? Some form of augmented physical oscilation to scar the tape uniquely? Could the caught debris of the tape wear be somehow transferred, and it's granular segments of sound be heard again? Thank you Hainbach.
Idea: Create a destruction loop intended to be played in reverse - a resurrection loop. Play the tape in reverse across your normal destruction tools, then play the recorded sound forwards again so you have a destroyed noisy mess that slowly heals into beautiful sounds!
Fuck, I might have to try this
Lovely idea!
This sounds like a lovely idea.
I love this. What could be on the loops? Maybe something you wish were true.
An easter special
This video will run about 27 minutes, so bring snack! See you in a bit.
Thank you for the tenderness and care with which you handled my regret, and for adding your own to the work. A public exorcism of private guilt.
This might be the most profound musical installation I have ever seen, I'm in tears.
The destruction makes it feel like the rerocdings fade into the past.
Thank you Hainbach and collaborators.
I really need to watch the other two episodes.
I’m so incredibly touched by the trans people who submitted. I share their stories and feel represented by their courage. Love you all, and love this project. Thanks so much, Hainbach!!

The magnet makes tiny gaps in the audio everytime it swings by, wich give a really cool effect. Only thing is, that it will erase the whole loop pretty quickly (like 5-10 minutes)
An electromagnet, powered only in tiny intervals (like with a pulse generator or modular system) could stretch out the time to silence, perhaps.
I just dropped a tear, on a TH-cam video. Yet again you bring this platform to new levels. Thank you, Hainbach!
26:20 That come at the right moment for me, lifted a real weight of my chest. Thank You
This is making me cry so hard. Hainbach you are a genius and a warm hearted person. You took regrets and turned into musical dust thats so beautiful

Really enjoy visiting your galaxy Hainbach. Always surprising and interesting.

Hainbach, you're a very special dude. Thanks for everything.
This was an incredible experience to watch... can only imagine being in the room while it was happening. Beautiful performance and well documented.
One of the deepest things I’ve watched in a good while. Thank you Hainbach!
So very powerful, and the addition of flame really capped it. That elevates the result.
I have some profound regrets: I know what I need to do now. Thank you.
I can't tell you how much I love this. You're amazing. Thank you for your vulnerability.
The cathartic symbolism / aspect of it is beautiful.

This is really touching , thanks for doing this.
Brilliant, inspiring, deeply touching... pure Hainbach ! Merci, thank you, danke, shukran...
Wow. That was incredibly moving and thought-provoking. Thank you for making it and sharing it.
Ooh! An Akai 4000DS - my first good hifi component from 1976. That brings back memories!
kinda scanner 1 vibes in how vulnerable and delicate it feels, one of my favourite things youve created
This is so moving. Thanks for sharing your music and approach!

Beautiful installation Hainbach! Thanks for sharing
Absolutely amazing as always. Thank you Hainbach.

His name was Vadim Tsyomik.
Rest in peace, grandpa.
Thank you for sharing that.
Poignant and beautiful. Thank you.
Awesome work. Touching.
I might know a way to get quicker results. They make those sanding spounges. Place the tape in between two of them that are held together with a few rubber bands. It would apply more uniform pressure to the tape instead of the sand paper.
This is just beautiful! Danke!
Stunning, just a delight thank you
Whoa! And here was me about to go to bed!
Looking forward to it, mate.
I regret not being able to hear this destruction loops live
Thanks for helping us heal. It might be cool to use magnets as another form of destruction unique to tape.
Beautiful, mate! Well done.
Beautiful idea and performance. Thank you.
Randomness for destruction is my inspiration from viewing this.
An organic element maybe? Less uniform.
Solvents, old used knife blades, or serated blades? Wire wool, or wire brushes? Some form of augmented physical oscilation to scar the tape uniquely?
Could the caught debris of the tape wear be somehow transferred, and it's granular segments of sound be heard again?
Thank you Hainbach.
So inspiring and deeply fulfilling
