alien productions and Machfeld
XT - Documentation of the Kunstradio - Webcast
from the performance as part of the Exhibitions CROSSOVER III
11.01.2007, 7pm, Fotogalerie Wien
The process of crosstalking (XT) is the point of departure for the conjoint
performance of the artists' collectives alien productions (Martin Breindl,
Norbert Math, Andrea Sodomka) and Machfeld (aka Sabine Maier und Michael
Mastrototaro).
In telecommunication and telephony, crosstalk is often distinguishable
as pieces of speech or leaking from other people's connections - hence
the name. The artists will use this - normally unwanted - effect and
base their performance exclusively on spoken word. They use their voice
to trigger technical devices like sythesizer, vocoder, stylus printers
or granular synthesis programs which themselves start to "crosstalk".
The original signal will be gated out for listeners and also for the
communicating artists. What remains are the sound events, processed
in real time.
The performance will be webcasted live on kunstradio.at.
It also will be used as material for a reworked radio-art version which
will be broadcasted on ORF Oe1, Kunstradio-Radiokunst on Jan. 28th,
2007, 11.05 pm (CET)
