Wild Thyme Music #3 – A Sonic Interaction

In 2004, musicologist Helga de la Motte Haber told me about composer Rolf Julius’ idea for a sound installation next to a highway that would make you forget the sound of traffic. The idea of such an ‘acoustic hole’, as she called it, has fascinated me ever since. 

With the Super Sport #3 happening taking place in the long abandoned warehouse ΨΟΨ next to a highway, the time has come to experiment with sound works from my archive for the series Wild Thyme Music, which aims to stimulate the equation of humans, nature and sound.

Program:

ELEH – Lighter Touch (2018)

Phill Niblock – Exploratory, Rhine Version, Looking For Daniel (2022)

Deep Listening Band & the Long String Instrument – TexasTravelTexture #1 (1994)

Images are pasted over a history of graphical expressions: a panda, Norman Fell (again and again), lewd papayas, Don Knotts (too much, but why resist?), a monkey wearing a cowboy hat, chihuahuas, more lewd papayas, eggs, eggs, eggs (what a luxury!!). In the frame of a window: a…

    Languida The audience is invited into a hypnagogic sci-lab, where the elegance of discarded materials is staged. They perform as embryonic creatures. I encountered the performative nature of matter in found objects, seeking to question the anthropocentric gaze of fruition. Collective dreams are released in an intimate space where the spectator’s usually peremptory gaze reformulates,…

    The Dinner In the moment that society consumes everything at a fast pace, with less and less thinking and feeling, humans have become products. This cannibalistic dinner, is an allegory, about the form that human relationships have taken in the developed world.

    Magic Curtain The curtain enhances the desertedness of the space. “Obviously somebody tried to make themselves at home“, the driver sadly thinks while passing by. I found this mythical quote in Roadside Picnic by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, 1972: „When you look at the curtain, you are overcome with a deep sense of happiness, but…
