Modular & Modified 1

Patterns, profiles, letters – the photocell of the film projector translates Moholy-Nagy’s “handwriting in sound” on the optical soundtrack of the film into electronic sounds.

Using echoes, filters and rhythmic montage, Philippe Arthuys turns sound fragments into an audio play about a seemingly wilful music box.

A washing machine less ordinary: In a lively music video with animation and advertising film quotes, the sounds of a fully automatic machine enchant us and make us forget all our laundry worries.

A neighbourhood dispute escalates … The pixilated movements of actors and scenery seem more and more absurd, heightened by the frantic sounds of the hand-drawn soundtrack.

Daffy Duck is caught in an animation loop. His beak wiggles, his wing hands flutter in the black void. An artistic and psychological study.

“Stripsody” is based on a score of onomatopoetic elements and cartoon language quotes. The solo voice swings on a liana: past the “achoo” to the “boinnnggg”.

Birdsong and meandering lines, sometimes solo, sometimes as a swarm movement. A park landscape, a staircase, and a man with a dog emerge fleetingly from the permanently changing forms.

Creaking, rumbling and trickling, earth movements leave traces of sound. The duo Semiconductor animates research data and conveys geological processes in a fascinating way.

A huge, luminous band of morphing layers of colours and strange sounds captivate the eyes and ears. An installation impressively brings geological history to life.

A piece of soil with plants displayed in a cabinet – three-dimensional and yet only a digital image. Forest sounds awaken leaves and blossoms; an organic rebellion flares up.

A rhythm fragment becomes a percussion ensemble without a single identical loop. Tiles proliferate into patterns that are never quite the same. Infinity in animated beats.
