The project is inspired by reflection on language attrition and its impact on personal identity. The audience will encounter a performance of sonic co-dependence, where two post-instrumentalists develop a symbiotic bond with an external operator who sculpts their sound. Featuring self-made instruments, motion tracking gloves, and a stage focused around electronics and lights, the work evokes the phenomenon of losing touch with one’s core identity as a result of an effort to assimilate.

Their work is characterized by personal narratives and interdisciplinary approaches, sourced in reflection on behavioral and philosophical concepts. They were awarded first prize in the Open Space Competition of the Possehl Foundation 2025 at the Musikhochschule Lübeck in Germany.
