Konstruktion#4: Dadadystopian utility music made of rubber, metal, strings, objects, voice and live electronics

Details

Concept
Within Konstruktion#4, the playing, recording, playing back, doubling, mirroring and transforming of sounds and noises create partly random, pulsating, hybrid-organic structures, acoustic biotopes. They form abstract soundscapes, collages of real, surreal and manipulated sounds.
Similar to microcopied preparations on a glass slide, fragile musical equilibria unfold within a biotope, achieved partly through provoked random events within the software, partly through variations of planned structures.
In the first concerts of 2023, I placed these biotopes and structural pictures next to each other, similar to pictures of an exhibition, and separated them from each other by field recordings. In part, the music played merged into a field recording, the sounds of distant places became an integral element of the sounds of the concert space and the music.
