2021, Sound Performance
Blauesrauschen Festival 2021, Bochum
INHALE_EXHALE
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 our laboratory-like setup, we use bioacoustic methods to investigate the sound production of microbes and enter into an artistic-experimental dialogue with them. Their “voices” are our instruments, which we stimulate and orchestrate.
A manifestation of life itself becomes audible. Inhale… Exhale…

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.
