The duo Freya Hattenberger/Peter Simon draws attention to relationships with non-human creatures in a bioacoustic experiment. Caroline Profanter weaves the audience into a web of microtonal feedback until it is no longer possible to distinguish between origin and echo.
All living things need communication. Even if it has no speech organ, it has a voice. Biological processes give rise to sound events and provide signs of life. In a laboratory-like setup, the duo Simon/Hattenberger uses bioacoustic methods to investigate the sound production of microbes and enter into an artistic-experimental dialogue with them. Their „voices“ are the instruments that the two stimulate and orchestrate. What becomes audible is a manifestation of life itself.
