At bb15 it is presented for the first time as a multi-channel video installation surrounded by a sound composition, where the recordings of contact microphones applied to the window of her passenger seat are modulated along the geological cross-section of the Euro Tunnel.

Wavering Worlds #15
Teresa Cos – The Archive of loops: open recording session
Sound performance
November 26th 2019, 7:00pm sharp
The series "Weavering Worlds" provides a platform for local and international artists and musicians who oscillate between various musical and artistic genres. Within the framework disparate forms of multi-media concerts and performances are presented.
“The Archive of Loops” is an expanding archive of sound improvisations, which the artist regularly performs and records in her studio. Making use of looper and effect pedals she generates layers of voice, guitar, percussions and found instruments, playing with notions of order, disorder, time (i)reversibility and memory accumulation. Each session is recorded encapsulating room and accidental sounds and is archived unedited. The archive is the source material for compositions that play along with the artist’s films and installations and crystallise in yearly releases. At bb15 she will perform an open recording session of the archive. http://www.teresacos.com/
WW#15 is presented as part of the cooperation between bb15 and the gfk - Gesellschaft für Kulturpolitik OÖ (Upper Austrian Society for Cultural Politics) on the topic of disruption (Störung).
