Katerina Tzedaki

The 'unspeakable water' refers to the small water collection located in the North inlet of the Melidoni cave in Rethymno, Crete, right next to layers of undisturbed remains of pyre dated back to the Minoan era. It seems that the place had a cult use during the Minoan era. The composition is an attempt to approach the past soundscapes of this place using the elements of fire and water in various ways. Materials that have been used include: recordings near by and within the small water collection, recordings of stalactite percussion and wind instrument improvisations, of the natural soundscapes of the wider area and of burning fire. Additionally many of the audio 'materials' used were created by sound synthesis methods.
