TRACKING NOISE #4

THREE PERFORMERS WITH LOOSE JACK CABLES, LIGHTS, DIMMER AND MIDI BUTTONS

Commissioned by: City of Cologne / Stadt Köln – Kulturamt
Premiere: 19.09.2019, Odeon, Cologne, hand werk Ensemble


The series "Tracking Noise" pursues the idea to explore auditive and semantic spaces between Music and Noise. The contradictions and utopias of a Noise-Music are the compositional field of speculation.

In Tracking Noise #4 the instrumentation is reduced to simple elements: a light dimmer, a loose cable and a switcher. Additionally, there is a big red button in the middle of the table. With these simple elements, the performer have the control over time of the music events and evoke the imaginary of a table game.
