A Walk (continuous 10 day process/ 2008) Concentrate Soundsystem walks from Bregenz to Raggal (A) 21.-30.08.2008 @ Palais Thurn & Taxis, Bregenz & Walserherbst, Raggal (A) engineered by Kassian & Ulrich Troyer ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (click on the sketch!)
A tent in the city. Something is hiding inside, collecting and digesting the sound of its surroundings. Tentacles reach out and grab information from the environment. A 2 days walk from the city to the woods. Hunting and collecting soundscapes and noises. A tent in the woods. The sonic memory becomes an audible, raw and archaic soundscape that represents the essence and character of the site: Sound transforms the site, site transforms the sound. "A Walk" is part of the ongoing sound installation project "Concentrate #," which has been realized in various locations in Italy, Austria and Serbia. A computer-based and sensor-driven application collects sounds via microphones and processes them in real-time while these acoustic snapshots further feed the memory section of the machine. Simultaneously, various sensors (registering temperature, movement & light ) grab information from the surrounding environment directly affecting the sonic part of the performance. A sonic memory unveals a sonic subconsciousness and the essence of the site. An important part of the project is the social interaction with the local residents. The sound-installation tent becomes a meeting point and place for discussions, with servings of freshly grounded italian coffee. The Concentrate # project is adaptable to various locations and situations. If you want to book this performance for a festival, just drop me a line. supported by |
