Spell of Sound is a celebration of journeys that take one’s full attention away from things that don’t matter, and uses the attention as a vehicle for opening doors to personal realities through the translation of emotional geometries into sound and symbols. Each artist in Spell of Sound has a unique door to offer, which each member of the audience chooses to enter with her or his attention provided. Come with us as we give our attention as keys to open the doors that each artist creates with a mix of experimental modular and cultural rhythms, and eccentric visuals that express part of each artists psyche.

Pierre de Brun (Deb Run) (PHOTO ON THE RIGHT ABOVE) started creating music during the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by nearly total isolation, online addiction and temporal awareness. Using the Access VIRUS as main sound source, their work is defined by an unapologetically digital sound — cold, glitchy, layered, blending dystopian ambient soundscapes with hints of trance music.

Omniformer
St. Luke’s School Playground, Youngstown, Ohio (Autumn, 1980)–A little boy lags behind the sounds of a school bell ringing, and children running back to class at the end of lunch recess. An “inner” voice on the playground says “WHO AM I?”, and as a deer in headlights, Christian Lewis Lyon begins his quest to discover who “He” is.
Christian Lewis Lyon was born in 1975, in Youngstown, Ohio. His collections are now attracting art buyers interested in lines and expressive color, subjective expression, and concepts such as “manifestation”, the nature of personal reality, and psychic/inner senses. Lyon is concerned with spontaneity and its divine expression and has a Masters degree in Technical & Scientific Communication from Miami University where he also studied Fine Art and Psychology. Lyon has been studying life as idea construction since age five. Lyon also creates using the medium of sound under the alias of Omniformer
