Speaker Music is a digital audio and extended media praxis by rhythmanalyst DeForrest Brown, Jr. It is inspired by Rhythmanalysis, a book of essays by urbanist philosopher Henri Lefebvre as well as considerations of momentum and the ​‘chronopolitical’ from cultural theorist Kodwo Eshun. Mobilising free improvised electronic percussion and stereophonic audio recordings, Speaker Music yearns to caress, engineer and sculpt sentiment into a multi-textural rhythmic body, quivering the nexus event of the moment into a collapsed ​‘nonpulsed time’ towards a shared sphere of intimacy.
