iø is a new experimental electronica group based in Cuernavaca, Morelos -
Mexico. They focus mainly on trancy electronic music with a baroque twist. The name iø
resonates in several ideas and simbols of different cultures in different times. iø was a
beautyful maiden in greek mythology of whom zeus fell in love. iø represents the opposits
which coexist in every system.
Opposits generate life, as in the union between male and female. Opposits generate
movement, as that of magnetic fields, as well as that of cultural type in which the
exchange of ideas generates development. In spanish y and i sound the same. this sound
means "and", while the letter o means "or". AND and OR are the basic
operator in mathematical logic. Every imaginable operation can be performed with these
symbols. "For us i=1, ø=0. these two signs are the components of the binary system
and all we need to represent any number." io means "I" in italian. It is
the word which represents self afirmation and the concept of being.
These signs [iø] are all we need to represent the universe. |
