Analogue Utopia
it almost sounds like music
is about trying to make music with autonomous machines and electronic circuits
(small motors, tiny striking mechanisms, minimal robots) hat function according
to their very own logic. It is an exploration into the tonality of material
and the materiality of sound. It's about the process of how sound is created
from minute movement and interaction. We want to give voices to the things
and we do so by careful manipulation of the machines and their surroundings.
This process is made transparent by placing the machines on an overhead
projector, so that their movements and our hands interacting with them cast
a shadow play, making visible the process of creating sounds. Similar to
live coding it is our performance with these machines, our improvisation
with them that matters. It is a live experimentation in search for arising
patterns, musical structures and minimal techno we like to dance to. (Christian
Faubel, Ralf Schreiber)
