An evening of immersive and contemplative audio-visual performances, taking place in the chapel space of the Popradar: a unique, intimate venue, used only for choice events, hidden in the old school building, and particularly suited to focused listening and visual immersion.
Featuring the ambient/drone electric guitar duo of Flowers/Ghosts&Echoes, the live visuals of tschnz (aka Jens W. Schindel), the nature-inspired electronic and percussive soundscapes of Weiyan Low, and the slow-moving and thought provoking dance performance of Mar Fu Qi.
Flowers/Ghosts&Echoes is an audio-visual trio originating in Den Haag, consisting of two electric guitars and live visuals. The improvising guitar duo of Gonçalo Oliveira and James A.-McEwan explores a slow-moving instrumental landscape of drones and post-rock ambience, featuring elements of guitar experimentalism, noise music and post minimalism. Their sonic world interacts with and responds to the performative visuals of designer and visual artist Felix Bodin. Using his self-designed visual instrument, consisting of projections reverberated through the performance space with the use of a malleable mirrored surface, Bodin’s setup spreads, distorts or focuses digitally generated patterns into unique and dazzling light and projections. Sometimes delicate and serene, other times erratic and unpredictable.
