When Gustavo Méndez or Los Otres are composing with sounds, language, images, thoughts - he is listening inside of an own body-listen (un)wordling. Gustavo crosses idiomas as he crosses disciplines: from ethnomusicology to psychoacoustics, from chants to cumbia metaphysics, from swimming to walking, he writes the world sounding it. For him/ them listening is a critical form of understanding with-in living, a challenge of hearing pushing to acoustic corners of thinking. Coming from a somewhat associative workflow of deformed sounds and listening with tinnitus, Los Otres focuses on arranging asymmetric audio processing techniques within stochastic environments and fragile systems. Actually, all of them Gustavo and Los Otres favourite sound frequencies are exactly into the range of their tinnitus timbre. He is a founding member and active part of the sound and society interested collective Research and Waves.
