PHONOPHON

Doron Sadja
Doron Sadja is an American artist, composer, and curator whose work explores modes of perception and the experience of sound, light, and space. Working primarily with multichannel spatialized sound – combining pristine electronics with lush romantic synthesizers, extreme frequencies, dense noise, and computer-enhanced acoustic instruments, Sadja creates post-human, hyper-emotive sonic architecture. Although each of Sadja’s works are striking in their singular and focused approach, his output is diverse: spanning everything from immersive multichannel sound pieces to sexually provocative performance / installation works, and stroboscopic smoke, mirror, laser, and projection shows.

„a point, a line, a circle“ is a kinetic sound performance centered around a single motorized speaker/light and is part of a larger series of works called “Airsonic Sculptures” that attempt to demonstrate the spatial and sculptural qualities of sound. Similar to how a 3D printer slowly prints an object one layer after another, „a point, a line, a circle“ slowly pans sound and light around the room, allowing an interaction between movement, frequency, and acoustics to ‘print’ sonic shapes in space. Rather than resulting in a tangible 3 dimensional object, we are left with a composition whose form is like a long exposure photograph of invisible sonic shapes.

Futuro de Hierro

main galvanizer of Barcelona’s vibrant post industrial scene as musician, producer, promoter and founder of the label and space *Màgia Roja*, Viktor L.Crux has toured Europe and the US several times with Futuro de Hierro and past bands *Ordre Etern *and *Qa’a* with 150 shows abroad.

Collaborator of *Jochen Arbeit* (*Einstürzende Neubauten)*, *Nurse With Wound* and various *Gnod* members, between others, he also Djs under the moniker Comisarios de la Luz with almost 200 sessions in the last two years.

With Futuro de Hierro he mixes the legacy of *Esplendor Geometrico* and *Throbbing Gristle* and the heavyness of *Swans* or early *Laibach *and transcends the nihilism of the genere creating a cosmogony of songs where the personal, the esoteric, the present and the future intertwine. His live shows are a visceral and energetic deal, a hands-on approach to electronic music with an unseen control of rythmic feedback, dynamics and noise.

Torstn Kauke

Torstn Kauke, vielbeschäftigter Offenbacher Musiker mit zig Bandprojekten (die hier mal alle nicht aufgezählt werden) hat als Solo-Künstler seit den Achtziger Jahren bereits zahlreiche Tapes und CD-Rs veröffentlicht, jedoch waren all diese Solo-Aktivitäten – bis heute – reine (Heim)-Studioprojekte.

Heute Abend spielt er erstmals vor Publikum eine frei fließende Ambient/ Kraut/ Noise/ Elektronik-Eskapade unter ähnlichen Bedingungen wie im heimischen Studio: Minimale Vorbereitung, geleitet von der spontanen Idee des Augenblicks und im Verlauf des Stückes liebevoll unterstützt von Käptn Zufall.
