The Wavering Worlds series goes on an excursion. Since bb15 moved to its current location, there has been a desire to organise an event in the New Cathedral opposite. Due to the special architecture and acoustics of this building, it can provide an impressive setting for the staging of experimental music and that is exactly what we intend to do. Over four evenings in 2025, a selected group of artists will explore the specifics of the space and develop site-specific settings for their sound performances.
Meeting place is the north entrance of the New Cathedral (Mariendom) next to the tower.
Doors open at 6:45pm
Concert starts at 7pm sharp!
No entry after the start of the concert

MAN REI
Man Rei will perform material from their recent works and releases, using a sampler, vocal looping and electric guitar, adapting the already reverb-heavy production to the grand acoustics of the New Cathedral Linz.
Man Rei is a music project of Kristin Reiman, a Frankfurt-based Estonian musician and artist weaving ambient alt-pop from blurred samples, choral arrangements and hazy instrumental loops.
Their recent work, including their latest album Thread (2024), is released on Somewhere Press. Reiman also runs a regular radio show called An Awkward Guest on Noods Radio.
STEFAN TIEFENGRABER
Stück für eine Gitarre [concert]
Tiefengraber will perform an adapted version of his installation work Stück für drei Gitarren for Wavering Worlds in the New Cathedral in Linz. He will work with a multi-channel set up and use live produced powerful guitar sounds that are going to meet precisely placed sound interventions. The reflections of the walls accompanied with precisely controlled feedback will merge to a new composition – a choreography of sound, material, and space where kinetic tension becomes aural expression.
With this project Tiefengraber explores the interaction between mechanical systems, resonant bodies, and architectural acoustics in real time.
Stefan Tiefengraber lives and works in Graz and Linz, Austria. His work ranges from kinetic sound installations to audio-video noise performances and experimental film. Tiefengraber experiments with the modification of devices, which are originally manufactured for different purposes. Combined with the perception of the audience, this experimental attempt of exploring old and new materials leads him to new and unpredictable results.
