fear no sound
Welcome to Botanica X:
Our motto is Fear No Sound, and here we embrace the freedom of creativity inherent in sound as a plastic medium.
All of our releases are produced by Charles Edward Fambro, a graduate of Yale University, where he began his study of the intricacies of sound composition. His work is dedicated to creating a foundation for a new understanding of Creative Black Music – this encompasses work in the fields of Sound, teaching and writing, visual art, potlatch and ritual; including new nomenclatures, revised ontologies, aural psychogeography and sonic terraforming; and post hip-hop and neodarkglamambient soundscapes and mixes.
He has received numerous awards and commissions for his work, notable among them is the 10-channel sound installation "Alien Stingers," composed for the New York Aquarium and commissioned by the World Wildlife Fund. Charles' latest commission was the sound installation for "Medicine," (by Simone Leigh) part of Creative Time's Black Radical Brooklyn project.
His work has been written about in the Wire, musicworks, AfroPunk, Pink Tentacle and Chicago Reader magazine. He also founded, and developed the "teaching ecology," for one of the first Sound Composition classes in the country for high-school students.
Inquiries concerning commissions and sound/art installations are welcomed.
