FESTIVAL SACRED REALISM 2024
DAY 3 of 3

Ahti & Ahti (FI)
Marja Ahti - electronics, composition
Niko-Matti Ahti - electronics, composition

Finnish sound artists and members of the collective HIMERA perform a new piece developed in residence at the solitary Örö Island, a former military base off the Finnish west coast which focuses on acoustic explorations that open up to the materiality of sound within the continuous movement of natural life and the architectural particularities of bunkers and caves.

Rasmus Östling (FI) & Adrienne Herr (DE) "Respect & Admiration"

‘Respect and Admiration’ is an indexical project of unfixed formatting, constructed of implementations of various kinds, such as quasi-lectures, listening groups, audio plays, speculative maps, slideshows, tools and multifaceted publications. Taking Red Bull and its Music Academy as its core structure and subject of study, the project aims to pick the low-hanging fruit by questioning and satirizing an overtly problematic channel of expression.

"Piriforms"
Laura Steenberge, 2010

Performed by vocal ensemble The Present:
Olivia Stahn, Hanna Herfurtner, Bernadette Beckermann, Amélie Saadia

Doors at 19:30, concert at 20:00

Alessandro Cortini + Agnese Menguzzato

Ninja Episkopat

Patrycja Wybrańczyk - drums,
Igor Wiśniewski - guitar,
Alex Clov - saxophone, electronics

Ninja Episkopat is the bastard child of the pandemic, social media, and the all-encompassing boredom we experienced in 2021. “The Slipknot of Polish Jazz”, as some have said. The sound they create is a fusion of electronica, rock, contemporary and improvised music. Their rich musical experiences have borne fruit in which both subtlety and primitivism coexist. In this apparent contradiction, they see the primal urge that begets all jazz music.

BEAM SPLITTER x Xiu Xiu :: Dedicated Play Festival (Dec 7-9)

Featured artists (Day 1): bela (electronics), Audrey Chen (voice), Che Chen (guitar), Tashi Dorji (drums), Alex Zhang Hungtai (trumpet), Susie Ibarra (drums), Yuko Kaseki (movement), Thom Nguyen (drums), Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø (trombone), Lane Shi Otayonii (electronics), Hyunhye Angela Seo (piano), Victoria Shen (electronics), Jamie Stewart (guitar), Lisa Ullén (piano), Viola Yip (electronics)

Since 2020, Audrey Chen and Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø have been organizing DEDICATED PLAY in Berlin, where they have invited diverse artists from around the world, primarily from diasporic backgrounds. While spinning a thread through the larger story of migration across continents/oceans and establishing the concept of home in shared relationships, this project seeks to bring together the commonalities of these experiences and express this communication through familial interplay, improvisation and the merging of sonic languages.

For the fourth edition of this project, BEAM SPLITTER will be expanding the concept, teaming up with XIU XIU (Hyunhye Angela Seo & Jamie Stewart) to curate a six day event across two countries, split between KM28 on Dec 7, 8, and 9 in Berlin and Cafe Oto (London) on Dec 11, 12, and 13.

PERFORMATIVE SOUND OBJECTS // AIR.FINITE by Daria Redkina (UA)

LIVE interactions
Emanuele Porcinai (IT), Daria Redkina (UA), Pablo Lienhard (CH)

Daria Redkina presents ‘Air’Finite’ - a performative sound sculpture that transforms air into a tangible and dynamic medium through an ensemble of weather balloons, each equipped with reeds and played via a custom-built electro-mechanical system.

on view: 05.12. Thursday, 17:30-19h, 06.12. Friday, 16:30-20h, 07.12. Saturday,15-19h

This piece explores the finiteness of air—the very substance we breathe - and by making air both audible and visually graspable, Air’Finite may encourage us to reflect on the invisible forces that shape our world.

On the closing night, 07th December 2024, 20h an extended improv trio will feature Pablo Lienhard on sax, Daria Redkina on amplified reeds and Emanuele Porcinai playing live algorithmic processing of the other two players’ signal.

“Ancestral- creations of the rainbow serpent performative sounds“, by Carlos León Zambrano

"Vasijas Silbadoras" are sound instruments of pre-Columbian origin, with archaeological records going back over 3,000 years.

For the exhibition "Ancestral," Zambrano created newly interpreted Vasijas using traditional techniques. These objects represent a transformation between nature and technology, reminiscent of fossils that suggest a life cycle oscillating between humor and psychedelia. The instruments are performatively activated and interpreted by musicians, with the exhibition itself conceived as a social and ritual event.

Sub_Bar LIVE– Dodzi Dougban (J2DR) Solo Debut & Atelier Francesco´s “Blink Time Date

Sub_Bar is an innovative platform for haptic music and audio/visual experiences. Designed to bridge the gap between Deaf and hearing communities, Sub_Bar events redefine music as a shared physical experience. Founded by Atelier Francesco, Sub_Bar creates an inclusive space where everyone can feel, explore, and connect through the power of low-frequency vibrations.

● J2DR:Arhythm-focused performance from Dodzi Dougban, whose extensive experience as a Deaf dancer and non-verbal communication expert shines in his debut solo show.

● Atelier Francesco: An exploration of human connection and the cosmos through his piece “Blink Time,” a narrative blending philosophy and physics with low-frequency vibrations.

To set the stage, attendees will enjoy curated works from the Sub_Bar catalog, featuring low-frequency compositions by artists such as Byetone (founder of Raster), Daisuke Ishida (Sound Art professor at UdK), and Cigarra (one of the leading artists in Lisbon’s queer scene).

19:00– Channel 1 Playlist:
20:00– Blink Time by Atelier Francesco

어우러짐 / Coexistence

Stephen Flinn - percussions & gong
Jung-Jae Kim - saxophone

Dasom Baek - daegeum (traditional korean flute)

Stephen Flinn, Jung-Jae Kim, and Dasom Baek coexist within a shared acoustic space, each bringing their unique backgrounds and cultural perspectives to the forefront. At the intersection of East and West, their music is born from small, delicate, and exquisitely refined sound sources, blending traditions and techniques from different worlds. Together, they cautiously navigate the depths of silence, creating meditative waves and moments of tranquil stillness. Through their interactions—with one another, with the space, and with the present moment—they harmonize diverse energies and sketch a soundscape that bridges their distinct origins, forming a universe both intimate and expansive.

Die Carmen Rhapsody ist ein neues Projekt, welches den Raum des reinen Jazz verlässt und hin zur Oper geht. Die Carmen, normalerweise nur in der Orchesterversion bekannt, wurde von Aki Takase für ein Duo neu arrangiert. Die Carmen klingt deshalb so, wie man sie sicherlich auf der Opernbühne noch nicht gehört hat. Dieses Konzert ist der Abschluss der Konzertreihe „Piano +1“ im Salon L´écritoiree.

„Wer immer meint, dass der Krautrock nicht mehr existent ist – Jan Frisch beweist mit seinem Projekt AUA AUA, dass dem nicht so ist. Eine krude, eine spannende Mischung aus Klängen, Genres, Verrücktheiten und subtil-kryptischen Textzeilen bietet “Alles gut”, mal jazzy, mal purer (Kraut-)Rock, dann wieder ein bisschen EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN.

Warm Winters Ltd. pres. Aleksandra Słyż + Marta Forsberg + Luka Aron
http://www.silent-green.net/

The record label Warm Winters Ltd. is a record label and music studio founded in 2019 and based in Bratislava.

Composer Aleksandra Słyż explores the relationships between acoustic and synthetic sounds. This process often starts with natural voice systems, from which she constructs complex drone arrangements that emphasise the power of microtonal, electroacoustic tensions. The work of sound artist Marta Forsberg is based on archival research and deals with themes such as language and human memory. She experiments with the interplay of human and synthesised voices, creating intimate yet ethereal soundscapes.

Luka Aron is a musician and composer of electro-acoustic and minimalist music. His work focusses on the fusion of synthetic sounds with acoustic instruments and the combination of electronic intensity with the fragility of human touch.
