Sound border crossings − between space opera, chance and interactive art

Dortmund’s Domicil, a jazz club steeped in tradition that is also open to experimental music and sonic innovations, is today hosting a special selection of artists. With its unique atmosphere, the club offers the ideal setting for unusual sound experiments.

As Pod Blotz, US-American Suzy Poling lives out her urge for audiovisual experiments, whether through Avantgarde Futurism, IDM, Experimental or Abstract Techno. The multi-dimensional artist focusses on dimly lit narratives, which she allows to develop in an extravagant way. Panic Girl, on the other hand, incorporates chance and randomized processes into her music production, creating works in the tradition of stochastics and aleatorics. Her music is characterized by a cinematic expanse that creates a cinematic atmosphere through sophisticated sound design. The British artist Kaffe Matthews is considered a pioneer of interactive sound art and combines live sampling with generative systems. Her works react not only to the space, but also to the social interactions of the audience, making her works a dynamic, site-specific experience. The evening promises to be an exciting journey through the combination of genre boundaries, random sound processes and the interactive creation of sound spaces that transcend the boundaries of traditional musical forms.
