Project M - Mia Zabelka, e-violin,
voice, electronics, contact microphones; Mia Makela, visuals; with special guest
Martin Janicek, sonic objects - Zabelka's new solo focuses on the development
of experimental improvisational techniques with the voice and violin, a process
she calls "automatic playing"; she explores the relationships between
the body, gesture, sound, machines and space using also live electronics to expand
the sonic spectrum; the visualization of Mia Makela creates a synaesthetic experience;
Martin Janicek - sculptor, sound artist and musician from Prague, CZ, works with
acoustic qualities of various materials; he will use the sonic objects realized
during the ongoing residency at Triangle Art Association studios NY (supported
by Visegrad Fund) miazabelka.com

"untitled #2" for saxophone
was developed in Budapest between summer and winter 2011; it explores the non-understanding
of a language, on the inner search for articulation, and the microscopic examination
of voice, air, and the instrument; it is the second part of a solo saxophone trilogy,
following the 2010 piece "Canto". (supported by Pro Helvetia) christiankobi.ch

Sunday 25 |
Will present a solo electronics
set: Cavity: the NYC version; combining the use of self-built analogue equipment
with an awareness of aural surfaces and dimensions, creating dense textures colored
by rumbles, inner bass waves, a rattle, a flow…; how to empty a space after
saturating it, how to play with expectations by reversing them…; spatial
sense: both the sense of sculpting space with frequencies, and the sense of space
inside electronic circuits…; open form /closed system…energetic, urgent,
temporal, visceral, and delicate gjp.info
