Modulating Reality

Modulating Reality is a visionary musical co-creation between Fergus Hambleton and Ostad Afraaz Adam Mulji. Drawing upon a vast repertoire of sonic data, improvisational architectures, and deep explorations of cultural and temporal context, the artists construct a radiant “soundplane” that transcends the conventional boundaries of performance. Their collaboration does not merely present music as an object of listening, but as a living organism—an ever-shifting field where time bends, space breathes, and the listener becomes a participant in the unfolding of new acoustic dimensions.

The concert, which will be captured as a live recording, invites the audience into a liminal space where traditions are refracted through contemporary experiment, and where sonic matter is sculpted into portals of perception. Hambleton’s refined mastery of tonal structures meets Mulji’s Ostad-level depth in cross-cultural resonance, yielding a dialogue that is at once precise, daring, and profoundly human. This is not performance for passive consumption, but a shared act of becoming, where music itself modulates reality.
