Archeoacoustics | Matar
“The MATAR project was founded by Adi Newton TAG /SOON/ Spectral Unit / ClockDVA in 2016 in collaboration with Michael Esposito, an American pioneering EVP researcher & Sarah Rosalena Brady, an American Violinist and Assistant Professor of Art at UC Santa Barbara with a number of special performances in the US and Europe. the Album Archaeoacoustics has been developed over 5 years using live binaural beat frequency recordings at Stone Henge and field recordings from the Hurlers site in Minions / Bodmin Moor .
The Album explores concepts from Archaeoacoustic theories and the spiritual Mythological beliefs of Ancient cultures such as the Phrygian and Magnesian. the Name MATAR is derived from the Phrygian name meaning (‘Mother’). At Pessinos in Phrygia, the mother goddess identified by the Greeks as Cybele took the form of an unshaped stone of black meteoric iron, and may have been associated with or identical to Agdistis, Pessinos’ mountain deity.
No contemporary text or myth survives to attest the original character and nature of Cybele’s Phrygian cult. Images and iconography in funerary contexts, and the ubiquity of her Phrygian name Matar (“Mother”), suggest that she was a mediator between the “boundaries of the known and unknown: the civilised and the wild, the worlds of the living and the dead. Her association with hawks, lions, and the stone of the mountainous landscape of the Anatolian wilderness.”
