- döbereiner & morimoto (de/nl/jp)
These artists experiment with sound synthesis methods whose sonic possibilities are explored in an audiovisual live setting. The resulting sonorities are roughtextured microstructures visualised in wavelike forms. - Infinite Livez (gb) — Solo live performance
Infinite Livez performs a rare one-man show. Expect a mixture of experimental noise, stream of consciousness rapping and live beat-making from the London-born emcee. - One Man Nation (sg) — When I Was Young I Was Easily Amused, But Now It Is All, The Same, And The Same
One Man Nation’s work is best described as a “performance that transmits a deep narrative feeling of geopolitical disenchantment, ingrained into dark textures”. This disenchantment reveals itself on more levels than purely narrative; it is exorcised the use of every part of
his body as a whole. - Tarek Atoui (lb) — Un-drum 2/The Chinese Connection and Un-drum 3/Semantic Scanning Electron Microscope
Tarek Atoui’s “Un-drum” performances are a series of complex interactions between music composition, movement and electronic engineering. Through a system of pressure sensors that engage the physical strength of the artist’s body, Atoui scans and tracks at high speed to instantly edit microsamples.
Un-drum 2 produced by Sharjah Art Foundation (ae)
Un-drum 3 produced by: Sharjah Art Foundation (ae), La Maison Rouge (fr) und Darat Al Funun, The Khalid Shoman Foundation (jo). - Blevin Blectum (us) — Nocking Vane
Laptop, costume, voice and video complement one another in this piece about conjuring, human/animal/elemental interaction, uncanny forces of destruction and primeval attempts at preservation.
