<br><b>URSULA SCHERRER AND VALERIO TRICOL</b>I: Live Video and Sound Performance<br> <b>ANTOINE CHESSE</b>X - solo<br> <b>JD ZAZIE </b>on the mix<br> <br> Kindly Supported by PRO HELVETIA<br><br><br><span> <br>
The poetic quality of <b>Scherrer</b>'s work reminds one of moving paintings,
drawing the viewer into the images, leaving the viewer with their own
stories, transforming a landscape into a serene, abstract portrait of
rhythm, color and light, where the images have less to do with what we
see then the feeling they leave behind. Ursula Scherrer is a swiss video
artist and photographer living in New York City. Her work has been
shown in festivals, galleries and museums internationally. She has
worked with composers/musicians such as Shelley Hirsch, Michelle Nagai,
Flo Kaufmann, Kato Hideki, Domenico Sciajno, Monya Pletsch, Michael J.
Schumacher, Marina Rosenfeld, Andrea Valle, Tetsu Inoue among others, in
the creation of video and sound installations, live performances and
single channel videos. Together with Katherine Liberovskaya, Scherrer
organizes OptoSonic Tea in New York, a series dedicated to the
convergence of live visuals with live sounds. <br> <br> <a href="http://ursulascherrer.com/" target="_blank">ursulascherrer.com</a><br> <br>
<b><br>Valerio Tricoli</b> is a Berlin-based composer, improviser, sound
installation artist, producer, sound engineer and curator bridging
musique concrète and conceptual forms of sound with a radical interest
in how reality, virtuality and memory relate to each other during the
acoustic event. He mostly uses analogue electronic devices (reel-to-reel
tape recorders, synthesizers, microphones, light effects, ultrasonic
speakers). The structure of the setup is ever-changing however, seeking
multiple relations between the performers, the device and the space in
which the event takes place. He is one of the founders of
3/4HadBeenEliminated and the Bowindo label/collective.<br> <b><br> <br>Antoine
Chessex</b> is a composer and sound artist born in 1980 in Vevey,
Switzerland, with a background as a saxophone player and performer. His
sonic researches include compositions for ensembles, solo works,
transdisciplinary collaborations and sound installations . Chessex´s
works are based on the exploration of the physicality of sounds and
spaces. His solo works feature dense layers of sustained pitches
reacting with the architecture of the space or massive clouds of
amplified sax resulting in intense live actions in total immersion in
the sound. He has presented his works worldwide and appears at numerous
international festivals and venues in the U.S.A, Russia, Japan, China
and all around Europe. Recent compositional works include "DUST" for 3
violins and electronics (commissioned by Pro Helvetia), "Resonant Water"
a site specific piece for acoustic ensemble, "Metakatharsis"
commissioned by the Phoenix Ensemble in Basel (2011), "CHUTE"
commissioned by the Kammerensemble Neue Musik Berlin (2011) as well as
numerous electronic music pieces. Collaborations with musicians like
Lasse Marhaug, Zbigniew Karkowski, Maja Ratkje, Chris Corsano, Jerome
Noetinger, Ilios, Valerio Tricoli, C. Spencer Yeh, Axel Dörner, Hans
Koch, Robin Hayward, Thomas Ankersmit, Lucio Capece, Dave Phillips,
Kasper Toeplitz, Burkhard Beins, Monno, Didi Bruckmayr, architect
Christian Waldvogel and media artist Ulrike Gabriel.<br> <br><span> <a href="http://soundimplant.com/" target="_blank">soundimplant.com/</a></span><span></span>achessex.html<br> <b><br>
JD Zazie</b> is an italian sound artist and recordist based in Berlin.
Coming from a DJ and a radiophonic background, JD Zazie has explored
over the years different approaches of real-time manipulation on fixed
recorded sound.<br> In her work she redefines DJ and electroacoustic activities. <br>
As a solo performer, in small groups or large ensembles she moves in an
area which is constantly stretching the borders of what is supposed to
be DJ mixing, free improvisation and composed music.<br> <br> <a href="http://burpenterprise.com/" target="_blank">burpenterprise.com</a><br><br></span><b><br><br>LIEBIG12</b><br>
