"Amplified Souls" is a live sound performance by Gilles Aubry based on his research about the amplified religious soundscape of Kinshasa, DRC, which took place in 2011 for the Global Prayers project. Aubry improvises on a quad sound system with recordings documenting a spiritual deliverance session at the Libambu Ministry Church. During collective praying sessions involving speaking-in-tongues and a massive sound-system, the church members oppose evil spirits causing various existential problems. The sound, powerful and over-distorted, attests both on their supernatural powers and their capacity for soul amplificatio. By extension, the performance also questions the devotion of noise music fans and the cultural boundaries of faith, noise and technology.
