Aeoga

Aeoga is a two men project based in the northern Finland - born at the beginning of 2004. At the moment the project wishes to focus all the energies to the realization / creation process itself so, that is why there is no need to "personalize" the actions any further...

"...To exhaust mind and body in order to obtain a condition of non-consciousness and thus receive, realize and create material based on both primal and absent vision..."

...Follow the all-encompassing coprophagik cycle...
To create - To destroy - To work beyond Paradigms.

Arktau Eos

Born out of the vision of its creators in early 2005, ARKTAU EOS has become a sentient frame capable of capturing fleeting moments of oneiric activity, where essential gnosis manifests itself in blazing hieroglyphs... It is a ghastly and wondrous parade of cryptic images and sounds, which a given recording is a reflection of, thus becoming a new gateway for the perceptive listener. Equal parts stellar and serene, subterranean and disturbing, ARKTAU EOS remains in constant evolution, paying attention only to the cues of the spirits and maintaining the integrity of the dream-continuum of which our 'consciousness' is but a mere drop in the ocean.

For those who have supped from the Lotus of the Underworld and conversed with elementals in language of embers, the shock of recognition may become illumination.

Aural Holograms

The sound itself is a ritual, which enables one to gain insights to the heart of the Great Hologram. ...bodies, spirits and elementals may remain unseen, but not un-sensed. Their presence is felt through the ambiguous, long, unbroken orchestrations of drone – which form a radiant, holographic path leading to loss of self-consciousness...

Aural Holograms – born after the proto-vibration, resurrected after aeons and finally finding its embodiment in 2006 – is a group that focuses on fieldwork, aural excavations, conservation and embalmment of the archaic environmental pulsations and long forgotten atavistic forces lingering in the sub-mental states of All beings. Aural Holograms approaches holistic realisation of these forces through various sectors of acoustic reseach, and does not hesitate to don a mask, when it is time to call all the elementals into being once more.

Aural Holograms grant a multisensory experience through an engulfing and mystic atmosphere – an expedition revealing a passage to self-mummification.

Halo Manash

Halo Manash is an entity drawing its life-force from beyond all limitations. It is a means through which we communicate, a vehicle for bridging the worlds of being and non-being, for journeying to the depths and heights. It is a call – a symbol ever-present and thus not bound by limits of time and space.

Halo Manash signifies both the one and the many at the same time: the abstract and the concrete, the hidden and the revealed... the ever-flowing; evolution, expansion, the cyclic yet progressive continuity.

It is the aim of the personnel involved in Halo Manash to seek, explore, experience, study and decipher reflections of the ever-shifting shapes and spaces of different worlds. These findings are presented through elemental music and various visual elements. In Halo Manash, sound and movement come together as rhythmical language that facilitates communion with elemental beings. Our aim is to revitalise one of the oldest subconscious forms of communication, to open the gates with the aid of music and widen the horizon of perception concerning states of otherness lying in-between the cardinal directions.

Halo Manash is a pilgrimage to the borderlands of dreams, pure consciousness, and primal being – and beyond.

Zoät·Aon

Bestial waves of oneiric design, rays of negation in the starlight kaleidoscope or copulation in the firmament mirror. Barbarous transmissions echo in the great emptiness of the temporary state, re-structuring the limitations self-sufficient according to the inherent dream - affirming the real irreal.

Artistic output of Jaakko Vanhala and occasional cooperators.

While the material usually revolves around a centered vertical axis, the works are presented as conglomerations or various elements i.e. not only music or images but the sum total of all presented elements; mixed media involving sound, visuals, text, context, sense(s), nonsense(s) etc.

Soundwise, in addition to the methods peculiar to the project itself, Zoät-Aon deals mainly with methods common to electro-acoustic music, musique concrete, ambient, ethnic and ritual music. Thus a wide range of sound sources from different sets of acoustic instruments, field recordings, analogue synthesizers and modern technology is used.

Visually and otherwise, no description is possible. Zoät-Aon is not about anything, Zoät-Aon is any thing. To explain is to apologize. Zoät-Aon is the latest phase of a work that began in 1995 in Oulu, Northern Finland.
