The series „Wavering Worlds“ provides a platform for local and international artists and musicians who oscillate between musical and artistic genres. Within this framework various forms of multimedia concerts and performances are presented.

Andreas Kurz works on the conception and realisation of compositions, exhibitions, installations and sound performances at the intersection of visual arts and music. For his live sets he uses modular synthesizers, effects processors and field recordings. With minimal means, he creates dense drones, abstract sound collages and improvised rhythmic patterns.

In the work elliptisch ziehendes Ambiente the boundary between fine art and decoration is subtle, searching for depth, delving into the sweet mud of kitsch. Behind the underlying thematic horizons of figurative narration and fetish; selection and hoarding; simulation and imitation; projection and symbol; the ear gets pleased by the sound of shells and the gaze may sink into puddles of ducks.

Workshop: OUR VOICES – OUR SOURCES with Sarmen Almond

This workshop deepens into vocal self-knowledge, for free voice management. It is an approach to the personal vocal sound and identity, towards multiple ways of utter and color vocal sounds… a freedom without conditions, guided by knowledge of the instrument itself.

Participants will work on attentive listening and development of the auditory capacity to place notes, sounds, motives, within a sound environment. Find more info on the project Alquimia Vocal.
