Regnskog is a contemporary re-interpretation of David Tudor’s series of compositions from the 1970’s entitled Rainforest. It uses various types of sonic transducers to play live sounds through the assortment of resonant metal objects suspended by wires in the performance space. Additionally, an 8×8 matrix mixer allows the sound from any of the objects to be sent to any of the performers, making the whole piece an experiment in generative chaos. <\/p>\n
The structure of the piece is improvisational, shifting between relatively static installation-like moments and performative sections where the artists seek new relationships with the objects and each other. The audience is free to move around the performance space, engage in conversations and explore the resonant objects, thus adding new life to the rainforest. <\/p>\n
The performers: Harald Fetveit (Oslo), Gisle Fr\u00f8ysland (Bergen), Derek Holzer (Berlin), Ryan Jordan (London), J\u00f8rgen Knudsen (Bergen), Signe Lide\u0300n (Bergen), Julien Ottavi (Nantes), J\u00f8rgen Tr\u00e6en (Bergen) <\/p>\n
Produced 10-16 October 2010 in Bergen, Norway by Piksel.no. Video by Derek Holzer and Elisabeth Nesheim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
