Thanks to ongoing restoration, this system of alluvial meadows has once again become home to multitudes of animal and plant communities, while at the same time facing the local-global climate crises. The album Kozmick\u00e9 louky listens closely to this environment and its changes over time, entering into a dialogue with it, imagining and dreaming through field recordings and electroacoustic compositions created on site or in close relation to it between 2021 and 2025.<\/p>\n<p>There comes that rare moment when a human being falls silent. Alone, on behalf of their kind, which for a brief instant ceases to make sound. And in that silence \u2014not empty, but vibrating \u2014 I begin to hear all the others. All the sounds not meant for me, yet surrounding me, including me, absorbing me. Breaths, rustles, songs, rhythms that form endlessly shifting compositions \u2014 an unceasing communication, voices attuned to themselves and to the environment that carries them. I sense that what I call \u201cnow\u201d or \u201cI\u201d is only one of the knots in that vast network \u2014 a condensation of relations that both exceed me and bring me into being. It is a state of deep quiet, an almost meditative moment of bliss. As if, for an instant, a vision opened into a world that transcends us \u2014 a realm where all living  beings breathe in mutual understanding, in delicate, enduring balance. It happened in Kozmick\u00e9 louky. A revelation of the senses, a seeing through layers. The soundscape has become music. It depends only on how sensitive we are towards the land, and how that music will be heard.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A<br \/>\n01 Probouzen\u00ed<br \/>\n02 U soutoku | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/gruen_230-002.mp3\">MP3<\/a><br \/>\n03 Intenzita<br \/>\n04 Soumrak | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/gruen_230-004.mp3\">MP3<\/a><br \/>\n05 Noc<br \/>\n06 L\u00e9to<br \/>\n07 P\u0159edja\u0159\u00ed | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gruenrekorder.de\/mp3\/gruen_230-007.mp3\">MP3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>B<br \/>\n08 Peter Cusack &#8211; Wind in the face<br \/>\n09 Lucie P\u00e1chov\u00e1 &#8211; Mok\u0159ad<br \/>\n10 Souzn\u011bn\u00ed<br \/>\n11 Michal Kindernay &#8211; Od pramene<br \/>\n12 Struha<br \/>\n13 Adela Mede, Klaus Ellerhusen Holm, Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1 &#8211; Opavice<\/p>\n<p>13 Tracks (42\u203256\u2033)<br \/>\nVinyl (200 copies)<\/p>\n<p>Credits<br \/>\n01-07 Recorded and mixed by Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1<br \/>\n08 Recorded, composed-performed and mixed by Peter Cusack<br \/>\n09 Composed-performed and mixed by Lucie P\u00e1chov\u00e1, with field recordings by Peter Cusack and Lucie P\u00e1chov\u00e1<br \/>\n10 Live score by Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1 performed by the symposium participants at Kozmick\u00e9 louky in 2023<br \/>\n11 Recorded, composed and mixed by Michal Kindernay<br \/>\n12 Recorded and composed by Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1 featuring V\u011bra Manderlov\u00e1, mixed by Kristoffer Lislegaard<br \/>\n13 Composed by Adela Mede, Klaus Ellerhusen Holm and Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1, mixed by Kristoffer Lislegaard<\/p>\n<p>Mastering: Lasse Marhaug<br \/>\nCover photograph: Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1<br \/>\nGraphic design: Kate\u0159ina Havelkov\u00e1<br \/>\nLiner notes: Magdal\u00e9na Manderlov\u00e1 and Michal Kindernay<br \/>\nPoem: Franti\u0161ek Hru\u0161ka<br \/>\nEdition of 200<\/p>\n<p>I warmly thank all the artists, scientists, local communities, and all living beings of Kozmick\u00e9 Meadows.
