Rashad Becker & Okkyung Lee | Pedro Maia | Caterina Barbieri | Hacklander / Hatam NK & Hyperlinear Present

20:00 Museum Kesselhaus KEH, Berlin

Venue: Museum Kesselhaus Herzberge Herzbergstraße 79 (Haus 29) 10365 Berlin-Lichtenberg Directions

Facebook Event

Rashad Becker (PAN) currently his live sets evolve around the angle of `traditional music of notional species`, a semiabstract synthetic narrative that seems appealing to a surprisingly wide audience.

Okkyung Lee (Editions Mego) She is a New York-based artist and South Korea native, has created a body of work blurring genre boundaries through collaborations and compositions while pushing the limitation of contemporary cello performance techniques. Her music draws from noise and extended techniques, jazz, Western classical, and Korean traditional and popular music.

Pedro Maia “WASTELAND” 16mm Performance Born in Vila do Conde (Portugal) 1983. Based in Berlin. Portuguese filmmaker working mostly around the concept of Analogue Cinema, exploring the medium potentiality, and expanding the aesthetic and technological “heritage” of the classic films procedures of working with 16mm and 8mm material. His films have been presented in several film festivals and galleries, such as Tokyo Contemporary Art Museum, Armenian Center for Contemporary Experimental Art, MACBA Barcelona, Edinburgh International Film Festival, Curtas Vila do Conde, Indie Lisboa, amongst others. Presenting solo performance as well collaborating with several musicians such as Vessel, Panda Bear, Lee Ranaldo, Fennesz, Craig Leon, Demdike Stare, Shackleton, Jacaszek, Shxcxchcxsh, Tropic of Cancer, Porto Remix Ensemble… And has been presented those performance in leading festivals like Sonar, Unsound, Berlin Atonal, All Tomorrow’s Party, Mutek, Dekmantel, TaicoClub Japan, Red Bull Music Academy, etc.; as well in renowned institutions like Serralves Museum, CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo, Eye Film Museum, Contemporary Cultural Center of Valencia, Caixa Forum, among others.

Caterina Barbieri (Important Records) She is an Italian composer now based in Berlin. By means of synthesis, pattern based operations and subtractive counterpoint, her music draws severe geometries in time and space. A focus on minimalism in composition arises from a meditation on primary waveforms and exploration of the polyphonic and polyrhythmic potential of sequencers. Repetition and pattern permutation as media to perceptual insight lie at the core of her current sonic research. After finishing her studies in classical guitar and electronic music, she has researched and produced music at the renowned Elektronmusikstudion in Stockholm, where she has intensively composed for the Buchla 200 system. Her work has been performed in venues of experimental music such as The Long Now, MaerzMusik and Atonal (DE), CTM Vorspiel (DE), Goethe Institute (JP), Norbergfestival (SE), Worm (NL), Angelica (IT), De Montfort University (UK), Manchester University (UK), NTS Radio, Redbull Music Academy. Her music is released on the American label Important Records (Vertical, 2014; Patterns of Consciousness, 2017).

Hacklander / Hatam is the percussion + electronic music duo of Colin Hacklander & Farahnaz Hatam. Interested in transparency, liberation, rhythmic stability & its absence, the depth of radical material heteronomy in contemporary capitalism & the nature of our mobilised conditioning; sound as sculptural material; sound as a medium in which ideas are communicated; digital sound synthesis with SuperCollider; drums, percussion & gongs.

About: domizil commenced in 1996 on the initiative of artists Marcus Maeder and Bernd Schurer in Zürich, Switzerland. domizil sees itself as a platform for coordination, presentation, production, interchange and cooperation, focusing on publishing and distributing the work of its network of artists - via record releases, events, installations and electronic music concerts. From its first release, domizil has been poised for an in-depth exploration of digital culture, its sounds, methods and social context. The aesthetic focus lies on sonic art and all the many facets of this practice today – well beyond genre and definition.

The Zürich event at Kunstraum Walcheturm will be announced shortly.

Presented to you by www.hyperlinear.net

Thank you for financial support: Stadt Zürich Kultur, Swiss Arts Concil Pro Helvetia.

Artist Bios:

Asmus Tietchens (DE)

Synthesizer experimentalist and musique concrète producer Asmus Tietchens began recording in the mid-‘60s and continued to record three decades after that. Born in 1947 and based in Hamburg, Tietchens listened to German radio as a child and heard pioneering electric transmissions by the likes of Stockhausen and Gottfried Michael Koenig. He began recording his own home experiments in 1965 with crude reverb devices and picked up a MiniMoog several years later. Also influenced by atonal Kraut-rockers like Cluster and Faust, Tietchens met Okko Bekker and began a partnership that lasted for decades (Bekker has produced most of Tietchens‘ work). After Tangerine Dream‘s Peter Baumann heard a tape of his work, he produced Tietchens‘ debut album Nachtstücke, released in 1980 on Sky Records. His four albums for Sky during the early ‚80s focused on surprisingly accessible electronic pop, though 1984‘s Formen Letzter Hausmusik (recorded for Nurse with Wound‘s United Dairies label) began a period of more abstract, concrète recordings that often use tape experiments as well as synthesizers. During the 90s, Tietchens recorded for experimental labels Barooni, Staalplaat and Syrenia, the latter a 1996 collaboration with Vidna Obmana. Since 1990, he has also taught sound at a Hamburg university.

Ralph Steinbrüchel (CH)

Der Zürcher Musiker und Grafiker Ralph Steinbrüchel (*1969) arbeitet seit vielen Jahren, sowohl musikalisch als auch visuell an der Erschaffung von Texturen und Atmosphären durch stringente Reduktion. Das Aufeinaderschichten minimaler Variationen, deren Schichtungen immer wieder neue Strukturen und Formen ergeben, steht im Zentrum seines Schaffens. Sowohl in der Musik als auch in der visuellen Gestaltung arbeitet Steinbrüchel mit Gestaltungsrastern, minimaler Varianz und bewusstem «Weissraum» (Grafik) bzw. Stille (Musik.) Damit steht sein Werk, geprägt von Reduktion, in bester Tradition der Schweizer Grafik. Mit zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen und Konzerten hat Steinbrüchel sich im Bereich der elektronischen Musik bereits international einen Namen gemacht. 2002 wurde sein Werk in New York vom Österreichischen Kulturamt mit dem Max Brand Preis für elektronische Musik ausgezeichnet. Er erhielt bisher zwei Kompositionsaufträge der Schweizerischen Kulturstiftung Pro Helvetia. Steinbrüchel veröffentlicht seit 20 Jahren elektronische Musik auf diversen Labels wie zum Beispiel Domizil (CH), 12k (USA), LINE (USA), Room40 (AUS), NVO (A). Zudem wurden einige Kollaborationen mit Bernd Schurer, Frank Bretschneider, Cory Allen und Machinefabriek erarbeitet und veröffentlicht.

Thomas Ankersmit (NL/DE)

(*1979, Leiden, Netherlands) is a sound and installation artist based in Berlin and Amsterdam. Acoustic phenomena such as sound reflections, infrasonic vibration, otoacoustic emissions, and highly directional projections of sound have been an important part of his work since the early 2000’s. His work is also characterized by a deliberate misuse of the equipment, using feedback and disruptions to the signal, and the extremes of frequency and dynamics, to create visceral but finely detailed swarms of sound. Since 2006 his main instrument, both live and in the studio, has been the Serge analogue modular synthesizer.

Jeff Witscher (Rene Hell) | Rashad Becker | Eric Frye NK & Hyperlinear present

20:30 Berghain Kantine, Berlin

Jeff Witscher (Rene Hell PAN) An important figure in the American underground since his teens, over innumerable releases the aesthetic choices of Jeff Witscher have prophesized many of the pivotal shifts in US underground culture spanning the last decade. Most recently receiving critical acclaim for experimental synth albums ‘Porcelain Opera’ and ‘The Terminal Symphony’ (Type) and a 2012 split release with Oneohtrix Point Never, ‘Vanilla Call Option’ represents Rene Hell’s most abstract and refined vision to date.

Rashad Becker (PAN) Currently his live sets evolve around the angle of ‘traditional music of notional species’, a semiabstract synthetic narrative that seems appealing to a surprisingly wide audience.

Eric Frye (Salon) Exploring non-orientable sonic surfaces, Eric Frye operates between the disciplinary boundaries of sound, philosophy, linguistics, and mathematics. His live performances and installations are focused towards a recalibrated layering of multi-channel diffusions. Simultaneously dissociative and palpable, Frye’s compositions activate an interplay between material and immaterial. His latest recording, On Some Consequences of Four Incapacities, was released in November 2015 by Portland-based imprint, Salon.

Discomateria by Andrea Borghi Lucio Capece | Mario de Vega Adam Asnan | Andrea Borghi

Museum Kesselhaus KEH, Berlin

Hyperlinear and N.K. present Andrea Borghi - Discomateria

Opening night: Wednesday Sept. 7th from 6pm

Exhibition: Thursday Sept. 8th and Friday Sept. 9th from 12am to 6pm

Closing night with performances by: Lucio Capece | Mario de Vega | Adam Asnan | Andrea Borghi Saturday Sept. 10th from 6pm

Andrea Borghis recent work is focused on the idea of “osmosis”, with particular attention to an osmotic relationship between sound and matter. Discomateria are objects in the shape and size of an LP manufactured in various materials such as glass, resin, metal and recently marble amongst other materials. In practice, discomateria are used by Andrea Borghi to produce sound directly from the material by being played on modified and customized turntables and processed with substances that transform the structure of the materials surface such as acid. These discs are treated and in real-time processed to generate sound and also becomes autonomous art objects. The idea of osmotic sound derives from the motivation to overcome a "superficial" effect of sound and to make it as tangible as possible for the listener, through a psychoacoustic effect in a certain way "epidermal". The sound becomes tactile and the material becomes auditory. The sound source is real-time processed through Max/MSP patches (algorithms for sound processing) specifically designed to "shift" various registers of audio treatments to obtain a more physical and material effect in relation to the space. For the closing night of the exhibition, Andrea Borghi will create a new autonomous sculptural work throughout the performance by processing a disc of raw material. Andrea Borghi (*1974) is a sound artist and electroacustic composer based in Pietrasanta, Italy. He completed his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Carrara in 1997. After starting out as instrument player he attended courses in composition and electronic music held by composer Andrea Nicoli at the Conservatory of Music G. Puccini in La Spezia and also expanding his activity to the field of visual and sound art, investigating their possible connections. His research is centered on using the software Max and often performs in audio-visual contexts. In 2002 he created Quaalude in collaboration with Dino Bramanti (1969-2008). More recently his work has focused around relationship between sound and matter. Founding member of the electronic improvisation quartet VipCancro, Andrea’s work is published on international music labels such as and/OAR (USA) Reductive (ESP) Observatoire (RU) Cipher Productions (AUS) SQRT (PL). His most recent cd Salnitter was released on Contour Editions. His main occupation is as an art teacher. Hyperlinear, N.K. and the Museum Kesselhaus are delighted to welcome Andrea Borghi for his exhibition of the sculptural aspect of his discomateria project in Berlin at the historical Kessel Ebene (boiler level) of the Museum.

For the closing night of the exhibition, Andrea Borghi will create a new autonomoussculptural work throughout the performance by processing a disc of raw material. Andrea Borghis Website | Soundcloud | YouTube

Adam Asnan - Bella Trays (Choir) performance with choral accompaniment

Bella Trays is an instrument both electronic and acoustic in nature. It's resonant motifs will repeat for a given duration, for any environment, and may continue irregardless of a listener's proximity or attention; It is to lend itself to being a factor within the aural ambience of this environment. The implements that Bella Trays now make exclusive use of, derive from a small range of instruments intended to colour or mask the spectral characteristics of a recording, and/or actuate a physical (acoustic) object by way of using that recording as an impulse. Bella Trays is the most reduced and most essential of these instruments. This version of the work will be performed for the first time with a choral accompaniment. Adam Asnan (1983, UK) is an electroacoustic musician and location sound recordist, based between London and Berlin. His work promotes the aesthetic potential of recorded, amplified sound, the auditory ‘image’ and the virtues of spatialisation. His compositions, live performances and collaborative projects have been presented across Europe, with a number of published recordings. Adam is one third of VA AA LR with Vasco Alves and Louie Rice. Adam Asnans Website

Mario de Vega - Monologue performance

Mario de Vega (*1979, Mexico City) Through site-specific interventions, acoustic phenomena, sculpture, performative events and publications in diverse formats, his research explores the vulnerability of systems, materials and individuals, and the value of simulation. His work has been exhibited in different contexts throughout Mexico, Canada, United States, Chile, South Africa, India, Russia, Japan and around Europe. He lives and works in Berlin and Mexico City. Mario de Vegas Website

Lucio Capece - SPACE TUNING.CONDITIONAL MUSIC performance with Flying Speakers, Intervented Space recordings, Spectral analysis

Experimental musician born in Argentina in 1968. Lives in Europe since 2002, and specifically in Berlin since 2004. He plays the soprano saxophone, bass clarinet, analog electronics (synthesizers, equalizers on feedback), Sruti Box and a set of Wire less speakers that fly hanging from Helium Balloons. Educated as a Jazz and Classical musician in Argentina-Lyon and New York Capece, developed his work in the context of electro acoustic improvisation for over 15 years. At the moment, and since 2012 he focuses his sound work on the perceptual experience. Creating pieces that deal with specific characteristics of social and architectural spaces, and with the perception experience itself. He has done this through solo pieces mainly, as well as collaborations also based in the same interest. He has released around 25 Cd'́s and LP'́s, in labels like Mego ( Austria), PAN (Germany) B-Boim (Austria), Potlatch, Drone Sweet Drone (France) , Another Timbre, Leaf, Hideous Replica (England), Formed (USA) , Mikroton, Intonema (Russia), Organized Music from Thessaloniki, Abusrd (Greece), besides others. Among other projects In 2007 he directed the Project "Extended Modulator", composing and performing music for and with the "Licht- Raum Modulator", kinetic sculpture built by László Moholy-Nagy between 1922- 1930. The piece was offered at the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin. As an improviser Capece has shared projects and released music with Radu Malfatti, Mika Vainio, Kevin Drumm, Axel Dörner. Robin Hayward, Christian Kesten, Toshimaru Nakamura, Burkhard Beins. Rhodri davies, Julia Eckhardt, among others. As a performer he has worked with Pauline Oliveros, Peter Ablinger, Antoine Beuger, Michael Pisaro, Christian Wolff, Phill Niblock as part of the Ensemble Q-O2 from Belgium and the group Konzert Minimal from Berlin. He has been member of the Vladislav Delay Quartet. His work and research in perception, in recent years, has taken him to compose a piece including Video, based in texts taken from the „Cahiers“ of poet Paul Valéry. To do Spectral projects based in intervented recordings of spaces, diffussed lately using speakers hanging from Balloons filled with Helium (Conditional Music), and a set of Pendulums created with wire less speakers. He has performed Conditional Music in the context of very different spaces; The German Pavillion built by Mies Van der Rohe (Barcelona) the Halle d'Expositions (created by Alexandre Gustave Eiffel) in Evreux, France, the Cathedral of Bern (Zoom In Festival, 2012), The Mambo Museum in Bologna (Live Arts week 2012), and during the night, in Kleylehof, Austria (Reheat Festival 2013), in the wild countryside, using as only illumination a set of led lights placed inside the Balloons.

19/08/2016 & 21/08/2016

A Festival of Goodiepalian Performance with Goodiepal and Pals

20:00 SPEKTRUM, Berlin

For the second part of hyperlinear Goodiepal and his pals have prepared a two day program of performances. For each day different guests are invited to perform animated notations.

Icelandic Animated Notation | Pro Islamic Psydonk

Animated notation is a subset of dynamic scoring that features perceptible contact and intersection between elements in a notational fashion. It is usually a dynamic score read from a screen by the musicians. Displaying the animated score during the concert can enhance the audiovisual and aesthetic experience for the audience. Furthermore it supports the understanding of musical structures. Animated notation is not bound to a rigid framework and therefore allows to notate anything from just triggering improvisation to the exact display of musical parameters like pitch or dynamics. Thereby the actions, especially of the computer musician become more transparent. It is also possible to notate any kind of objects for sound making. Therefore animated notation can be utilized as a common notation for all musicians, despite of their instruments.

Goodiepal is a pseudonym for the radical Danish/Faroese artist, musician, storyteller and composer Parl Kristian Bjørn Vester. With a performance style as enthralling as it is unclassifiable, Goodiepal draws on electronic music, computer technology, spoken word and broader cultural theory. In 2002, Goodiepal gave his first lectures in the USA, among other places at CalArts, Brown University and University of Iowa, on the subjects of radical computer music, radical software and other topics. In 2004 Goodiepal was hired as professor of History and Aesthetics of Electronic Music at DIEM (Danish Institute of Electro-acoustic Music), The Royal Danish Academy of Music in Aarhus, Denmark, and served as head of the electronic music department. Goodiepal also eventually taught Composition at DIEM.

In 2008, Goodiepal left The Royal Danish Academy of Music. Upon his resignation, he produced the declaration Five steps in a Gentleman's War on the stupidity of modern computer music and media based art, released as a supplement to the audio piece The Official Mort Aux Vaches Ekstra Extra Walkthrough and the series of images called Snappidaggs explaining the methodology behind Goodiepal's concept of Radical Computer Music. In between releases, projects, and installations, Goodiepal lectures extensively all over the world.
