RESONANCE
2026 - ongoing




In 2025, Corin was selected by Forecast Platform (Berlin) to create a long form electro-acoustic performance on the kulintang with live digital processing under the mentorship of renowned Iranian electronic producer Sote. The mentorship concluded with the premiere of the work at CTM Festival (2026) at Haus de Visionnaire.


The kulintang is a Filipino gong chime instrument with precolonial roots performed in the southern Philippines. The project is entitled ‘Resonance’ - alluding to the metallic resonance of the gongs, and how resonance is transformed through time and space. Corin is interested in the idea of resonance as residual memory - how ancestral memory is retained, and how it transforms over time.


The performance incorporates improvisations performed live on the kulintang that are digitally processed live. Corin is drawn to granular synthesis as a form of resampling as it allows the resonance of the gongs to be drawn out over a longer period of time. What emerges is a sonic palette blurring natural and altered versions of the sound, acoustic and synthesised sound.  At Haus de Visionnaire , Corin spatalised the performance mix with the d&b audiotechnik 36 speaker system adding further dimension to the composition.


“CORIN’s Resonance created an epicenter of synchronized tenderness. In her experiment with non-Western sound heritage….she proposed tuning into the cracks of tradition and contemporaneity by soliciting ways of accompanying an environment where sounds could emerge or disintegrate. The performance unfolded amid the lingering waves of internationalization in the art world, as artistic forms circulate across borders threatened by populist motivations. The audience formed a tight circle around the stage, where CORIN conducted the amplification, desynchronization, and synthesis of the tones, melodies, and timbres of elements she has been (un)learning for many years. One by one, visitors pulled themselves away from the center. A swarm disbanded, dispersing like pollen in the air. They searched for the frequencies falling from the 36-channel speaker installed from the ceiling.”
