BodyControlled #2 - "matter-incompatible"
Performances by Echo Ho (DE/CN), Mario de Vega (MX), Alex Nowitz (DE), Ignaz Schick (DE)
Thursday, 26.01.2012, 20.00 Free Entry (or donate what you like)
Following the first event event of the BodyControlled series, BodyControlled #2 focuses on the idea of incompatible matter. While BC #1 was organized around the concept of "other spaces", using the specific architecture at LEAP and provoking it in order to synthesize new environments, BC #2 combines space and sound.
Through exploring the physical reality of sound-instruments and objects, complex acoustic spaces emerge. Sound of any kind - vocals, instruments, vibrations - become a material themselves, a hybrid. Creating Matter-Incompatible, the exhibition focuses on searching for the hidden materiality of acoustics, where distinguishing between live-produced sound and mechanically generated playback becomes a challenging self-observation.
All performances will be available from 20.00 CET via live stream on http://bit.ly/uXRgyq.
