Initially developed for the Mouse on Mars ’21 Again’ festival at HAU2 Berlin, this piece was selected by CTM for their SHAPE program, and toured across Europe and Russia. Back-lit, Kathy’s silhouette is tracked through live-stream video, and manipulated in real time to create feedback effects. Responding to the flow of the analogue electronics, the performance was celebrated for the intuitve connection between the visual and sound.
Kathy Alberici (Small but Hard, Drum Eyes) inhabits a tingling space between noise, soundscapes, and drone. Working with strings and analogue synth, sound is manipulated, recycled, and deconstructed to reveal its many faces. From nothing comes something, the imperfections, the Dreck becoming its own musical element in a complex weave of reflexive feedback.
