PHONOPHON

Annabelle Playe
Sometimes atmospheric, sometimes noisy, harmonic or dissonant music takes us across states that open the perception we have of the world, others and ourselves. Music is played live based on a device made of analogic synthesizers, filters and effects. Sound is waving between electronic and electroacoustic music, some of them made from different sources (voices, concrete sounds) are processed, put into spaces and mixed to analogic.

Jean Voguet
Having been a futuristic bruitism, atypical composer of acousmatic & electronic music, Jean VOGUET has always focused on how his works are presented in each environmental context.

The concept « Acousmatic Geophonies & Heterotopias » comes from his research « sound spaces of otherness », which means the virtual ecosystem in complex structures.

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.

Federico Dal Pozzo (I)

Untitled_S M K 2017

The illusion of the passing of time is based on a confusion between the inner feeling and the outer reality. Time passes by, since we think to inhabit different realities. Actually, we inhabit just different sensations. There is only one reality. Only one time,  that lives and breathes with a perfect, inexorable swing.

Yet, we experience a „Body Time“, that every living being feels with his body, and a „Mind Time“ that we perceive as slow or fast, happy or sad. „Untitled_S M K“ explores Time (also called, musically, Tempo – and in Italian this is the word for time itself) at different levels: auditive, visual, physical. Time shatters and recompose, it turns into Vision and breathes in the place where we live and experience it. “Untitled_S M K“ is sound for the eyes, Vision meant to be listened to.

„Untitled_S M K“ is Time that turns into space, one area where there will be no more Time.
