E L E M E N T S

Elements is a series of performances in the domains of audio, 
incorporating practices of deep listening, field recording techniques, 
phonography and microphonics; with a particular ear to the elementary 
sound sources of our sensory world.

In the 2008 version of this performance tour, two sound practitioners 
(Budhaditya Chattopadhyay & Lasse-Marc Riek)  from different landscapes, 
but with a common fascination for discreet environmental sounds, join 
together to form an onstage presence exploring different types of 
performance spaces in four different European cities.

The focus of these performances is basically to share listening 
experience with diverse tools and methods, but fundamentally with the 
ear. Sounds will be organised in multi-channel atmosphere, within an 
ambience of empathetic listening to the minute and fragile sound objects 
from our very own environment.
