[UTC+13:45] Germany - BARBARA LUBICH & ANNA TILL - PARALLEL SITUATION

>> INTERVIEW In “parallel situation” dance meets photography in real time. The stage production is a performative examination which poses questions regarding the creation of images and the relationship between beholder and subject. From reconstructing historical dance photography to live documentation on the streets, artists Barbara Lubich (photography) and Anna Till (dance) deal with the power of captured moments. “parallel situation” is an intense dialogue between a dancer and a photographer. The photographs are taken in the very moment of the performance and immediately projected on stage. Two larger-than-life screens are part of te set design and refer to the two standard dimensions often used in photography: one screen positioned upright, refering to “portait”, the other one horizontal, refering to “landscape”.  Both artists are present on stage and interact in a playful way with each other as well as with the objects on stage (various materials that are used in photography industry). Within this direct confrontation of the performed dance and the capturing of itself, Lubich and Till point to the the power of images and reveal the process of picture taking - questions about the possibilties of memory and perspective arise. In this way, “parallel situation” also opens up the view on how movement emerges and vanishes, so does remembrance. Sound and image are directly linked. In this way, “Parallel Situation” explores how the athmosphere of memories inscribes itself in images. The gaze of the photographer acts as the third performer and guides the audiences perception. What do you see - and what is invisible to the spectators? Text - written by authour Ulrike Feibig - opens up a new level of imagination: While the performers increasingly retreat from the audience’s view during the performance, the spectators are drawn into their own imaginative world.

20200202 - Performance

The laptop trio of Annisa Cheung, Kathleen Fung and Steve Hui, present a difficult-to-approach yet ultimately magnificent performance whose dual nature is manifest from the outset. Sustain digital tones and single hits are produced by the trio improvising on laptop and loudspeakers. Randomized melodies, rhythms, harmonies and silences are generated in real-time through the interlocking process, delivering a very tight connection between the three players. Hovering between the identity of performer and audience during the performance, each player switch between creating and listening the synthesized audio blocks in the air, spread throughout the room and the internet.

[UTC+11] Australia - The Opera Company - FRENZY AT THE END OF HISTORY

Frenzy at the End of History

Composed by The Opera Company

Frenzy at the End of History is a performance that grapples with a post-ironic world-condition, wherein the horrors associated with the collapsing of comfortable signs, archetypes, ideologies and modern states, rhizomatically assaults contemporary life to a point of frenzied mania. Trying to compensate for the failures of the modern capitalist democratic state and the supposed (neo) liberalism of post-modernity in everyday life, the politicised subject [object] transposes sincerity through the absurd, or disintegrates. Performers: Tina Stefanou James Hazel Joseph Franklin Sam Gill Kristina Susnjara Andrew Kaineder // -- // -- // -- // The Opera Company

is a soap-like company-in-progress making impoverished opera which is malleable involving pools of bodies paddling In romantic-foam staying with sites and situations monuments, homes mammals, herds and ants (and precarity)

Founded by Joseph Franklin, James Hazel and Tina Stefanou. Based in Sydney and Melbourne. They have an extended pool of bodies who perform through and with the soapy material refuse of the Opera Company, not limited to: various objects, and ontologies: some of which include: Solly Frank, Joe Lisk, Isabella Morison, Toby Graham, Sam Gill, Irene Poutakidis, Sophia Dimarelous, Buster, Duke and Breeze. Grandmothers, mothers and companions. Their first performance Romantic Foam was premiered at 107 Projects on a budget of 60 dollars. Romantic Foam was a performance which attempted to interrogate the ideology of the ocean; the maintenance of romantic abstraction by the beautiful people; and their concerted effort to contain the ocean's vast and structurally destructive potential.

[UTC+9] Barcelona - Maia Francisco - Numerical Palindrome

Maia Francisco Catalonia | Performer and sound artist

Numerical Palindrome - Sound Art and Visual

The source of inspiration for this piece arises from the numerical palindrome of 02-02-2020 which becomes the numerical source for the selection of sound frequencies. In this context, several wave oscillators are used as a sound source. Each oscillator has been tuned in a specific sound frequency and the number assigned to each sound frequency has been calculated out of the string of numbers “02022020”.

// -- // -- // -- //

Maia Francisco is a Catalan performer and sound artist based in Barcelona, Catalunya. Her interest is focused on the use of pure sound in music composition. She is usually working on improvisational environments that allow her to interact with wave oscillators.

Karen Yu & William Kuo HK | Performance Artists

Augmented Aurality - Performance

Listening originates in utero, where the sensing self (the fetus) in its own body listens to the sounds of another body like its own: the self hearing itself from within. Even as we exit the womb of the mother we continue listening through the internal cavity of the skull. We hear our own breathing. We hear the rhythms of the organs inside our bodies. We hear ourselves speak. This work engages the listener inwardly, before turning outwardly to engage entire bodies of listeners. How does listening help to transform oneself and to forge meaningful connections with others?

[UTC+6:30] Hong Kong - Tap Chan - LOOP POOL

Tap Chan HK | Visual Artist LOOP POOL | Installation The palindrome number 02022020 originates from the date 2nd February, 2020. By reading it literally back and forth , it creates an infinity loop without an end. The repetitive motion of the hoop brings a hypnotic effect, and it draws you in again and again, preserving the moment for what feels like forever, as if trapping in a time-warp, looping the same sequence of occurrences over and over again, or lagging in a video game. No one knows the phenomena are hiccups of time or a glitch in the brain.

// -- // -- // -- //

Tap Chan works mostly appear in the form of installations, videos and sculptures. She is interested in exploring the idea of liminality that is embedded in daily life, where the boundaries between fiction and reality are often blurred, like the undefined psychic and emotional ruptures experienced during bouts of insomnia. Chan received her B.A fine art from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in 2011 and an M.A. in Visual Arts from the Hong Kong Baptist University in 2014. https://tap-chan.com/

Realms of interim - music composition for 6 musicians

In this project, at the time of 2020 02/02 20:20, an unknown universe will come into being at the time as the music begins, and by the end of the piece, it will be dissolved. Their existence will last for precisely 2020 cycles (or years) 59 days and 1220 minutes (or in total 106171200 minutes), which equals to 12 minutes of our time. There are three layers of time in the piece: the time of the unknown universe, our time, and the time of the witness. All these three layers are indeed interconnected; an event that happens on one layer will affect the other and create a ripple effect that becomes the body of the piece.
