Oscillation ::: Materia Forma Bulletin ep. 5 …Which artist from yesterday’s line-up are you?
Dear reading entity,
It’s time for our first outing: after two grandiose nights at VK we’re moving two blocks away tonight, to the exceptional Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Molenbeek church.
Today’s timetable:
20:00 Liew Niyomkarn: Through various tunings and the creation of resonances, Niyomkarm explores harmonics and tones using zither, building tension and repeat tones that weave into one another to create a new way of listening. 20:45 Enrico Malatesta: ‘Deriva di un Sonno Incert’o combines Malatesta’s personal research on percussion instruments with the dense and complex topic of the role of time/duration in performance practice, sound production and modes of listening. This new series of performances are inspired by the use and re-discovery of an ancient device for indicating the passage of time: the candle-clock. 22:15 Margarida Garcia: ‘Four Negatives’ is a piece created by weaving different lines of repetitions into each other, adding one line after another. Each musical phrase, around 6 minutes long, is played back unaffected, joining the existing lines. 22:45 Okkyung Lee: Cellist, composer, and improviser who moves freely between artistic disciplines and contingencies. Since 2000 she has worked in disparate contexts as a solo artist and collaborator with creators in a wide range of disciplines. A native of South Korea, Lee has taken a broad array of inspirations—including noise, improvisation, jazz, western classical, and the traditional and popular music of her homeland—and used them to forge a highly distinctive approach.
