About Whispers for Wolves, Biosphere 3 & Kiva of Duality
WhisPers for WoLves and Biosphere 3 and the Kiva of Duality are the solo pysch/noise/folk projects of Melissa Moore. The musician, installation/sound artist, and sculptor was born in Washington DC in 1975 and is now based in Baltimore, MD. Moore's gallery and performative sound work ranges from noisey finger-pickin folk guitar, banjo, invented instruments, voice, song, and electronics including music based in field recording composition (performing under the name Tauu). Her composed work involves the magnification of minute sound sources, focusing attention on the physical properties of materials and unusual acoustic phenomena in a reductive and elemental way. Her music and performance work often has an installation quality that belies its deep aesthetic and philosophical considerations. Her current music project is titled; "Language of the Dards" (tauu and twiLight sing 100,000 songs of Milarepa: Noise Narratives). It is a multi-part series of pieces developed around the text/teachings/songs of Tibetan Yogi, Milarepa. Currently there are (3) long recordings of voice/finger-pickin guitar, nepalese oboe, and electronics. Her debut CD of this project came out March 08' on Italian label, Boring Machines and a separate guitar/banjo CD will follow, due out on New American Folk Hero (Mike Tamburo). Melissa also developed and curates the Baltimore electro-acoustic/multi-channel sound series, SoundPillow Series. She was selected to perform High Zero 2005/2007, an international experimental music festival in Baltimore, MD. She has also performed at Straulau 68, LaborSonar, and Lichtblick Kino in Berlin, Germany, Elastic Arts and Something Else Radio in Chicago, Illinois, Homemade Festival and Monkeytown and Paris London West Nile in New York, the Redroom and 14 Karat Cabaret in Baltimore and other venues in the US. She was also a recipient of 2008 Creative Baltimore Fund Individual Artist Grant for her visual art. Her present work is an intersection of sound, sculpture, and installation.
