In winter 1998 Vladimír Hirsch founded ZYGOTE project, when he composed a large collection of compositions, where the fictive, geometric symbolism of certain mechanisms of the human psyche is applied. It is an attempt to detect or prove the existence of a certain order in illusory chaos. The author calls this musical form of mathematical theory “fractal musical geometry”. To this purpose he uses signals of interval, rhythm, structure and instrumentation logic. Sound is an important component, creating a simply structured, yet emotionally tense atmosphere, where the lightly industrialised or noise instrumentation of the compositions plays the role of the chaotic and likewise irritating element, the hypnotic rhythm than the role of order’s go-between, pointing attention’s direction to new levels of seeing things. Zygote was originally a Hirsch´s solo project, thanks to its successful stage presentation with vocalist Martina Sanollová and different creative orientation it was constituted as a detachment.






















GEOMETRIE NEVĚDOMÍ

Album of compositions for ensemble (alternative version of "Sense Geometry"). 2000. Vladimír Hirsch: syntesizers, organs, pianos, percussions, samplers, vocals, mix, Martina Sanollová: vocal, effectsa. Lyrics: Tom Saivon. Alternative version of "Sense Geometry" project. The original, almost meditative ambient features of the opus are distorted by apocalyptic Martina´s vocals and multilayered instrumental and noise masses to the degree of acquiring new dimensions both formally and in content. Tom Saivon’s commanding lyrics underline the intentionally invasive over-structuring of the version – this contrast constitutes the actual basic message of the conflict between the unconscious and reality. That all was constructed without essential affection of basic author´s idea principles, though repose on the bottom of the project.
