Ómun / Absolumont Collective
Some past performances are available on streaming platforms https://zzz.ch/omun/x |

Towards pagan legends and animistic rituals, Ómun explores through improvised words and music, inventing its own stories and mythology. Drifting between English and Icelandic spoken word, the narratives unfold beneath the surface of ordinary reality, opening passages into more elusive spaces of consciousness. Familiar images slowly shift as intuition and symbolism replace linear logic, inviting the audience to wander through layered territories of memory, myth, and unresolved questions of existence. The music emerges from delicate acoustic textures. Guitar arpeggios unfold patiently while the bowed electric bass releases long, resonant tones that linger in the air. |

Within this subtle sonic landscape, words appear, dissolve, and return, guiding the listener toward a space where sound and story move together. Each performance remains an open and improvised experience shaped by the moment. The presence of the audience, the atmosphere of the place, and the diffusion of scent through natural alchemical processes influence the unfolding of the piece. As a result, no two performances are ever the same, transforming each event into a shared act of listening, imagination, and discovery. | |
