CUBE Lecture: "Rhythms Of Presence" Performance: "Surface Studies"
Tao G. Vrhovec Sambolec will present his artistic research project Rhythms Of Presence, carried out under the Norwegian Artistic Research Programme at Bergen Academy of Art and Design (2013-2016). After the talk Sambolec will perform his piece "Surface Studies".
Artistic research project "Rhythms Of Presence" focuses its attention on the (in)visible manifestations of bodily presence as an acoustical and temporal phenomenon. Through the process of capturing the rhythms of everyday steps or listening to an ambiance of a place in order to re-articulate and displace them in various ways, this project explores the poetic, aesthetic and philosophical potentialities of the omnipresent infra-ordinary rhythms of everyday life. Bringing these rhythms to the fore in the settings of several spatial installations, hybrid places of intersection between presence and absence, concrete and abstract, here and somewhere else are established.
"Surface Studies" (2014) In Surface Studies the live event, the recorded sound and video emerge as different articulations of the relationship between the performer and the haptic/tactile qualities of the space and the present bodies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TAO G. VRHOVEC SAMBOLEC is working with the invisible ephemeral phenomena and the notion of space. His artistic practice is a poetic exploration of relationships between transitory and temporal flows like sound and weather phenomena and architectural and social spaces they inhabit.
In his installations, he makes architecture sensitive to its immediate ephemeral surroundings and enhances the temporal dimension of architecture by creating situations where the outside and inside, the unpredictable and constructed, the permanent and temporal, time and space converse. His works encompass interdisciplinary and mixed media installations, sound interventions and electro acoustic music.
Born in 1972 (Ljubljana – Slovenia), he received BA - main subject clarinet - at Trondheim Music Conservatory (Norway), BA in music composition and MA at Interfaculty Image and Sound – ArtScience, both at The Royal Conservatory in The Hague - The Netherlands, where he also followed Sonology course.
