Vocals
Carla Bolgeri (CL/IT), Francisco Marín (CL)

Vocals is a work that explores the sonic power of language in an acoustic and corporal praxis that seeks in the voice a vehicle to experience a sonorous state in the body and in matter. We seek to transform our communication processes into other possible configurations of meaning, in a moving territory and a changing landscape, the layers of language are superimposed on the meanings, sounds, vowels, noises, in various phonic forms that move in the foundations of our communication.

MachinedHuman!
Jaskaran Anand (IN/AT)

MachinedHuman! is a performance-oriented interactive installation that questions the existing. We are presented with an enthroned instance, apparently half human and half machine. The heart of this entity can be controlled by the functions of the mouse. It reacts to the movement of the mouse and the mouse click leads to a search for the essence.

Radio Cloud
Cao Thanh Lan (VN/AT), Gregor Siedl (AT)

Radio Cloud is an interactive light-sound-installation by Cao Thanh Lan and Gregor Siedl, which is based on a real-time and site-specific feedback circuit. „Radio cloud“ has an unbiased unfiltered „input“ from real-time FM frequencies on site, only limited by the range of the antenna and the characteristics of the exhibition space. Its input-media is also its output – light and sound. They are mutually dependent, they define, interact and influence each other. The reciprocality of the two energy forms drive things forwards.

Innen Außen
Wolfgang Dorninger (AT)

Creating a sound space in the interior that overcomes the physics of space is what drives me. To remodel natural sound spaces in the outdoor area, as well. Two completely different sound spaces collide violently in “Inside Outside”. Somewhere the sound space expands, elsewhere the flow is prevented.
