Hidden Resonance X Kraftwerk
Hidden Resonance X Kraftwerk is a audiovisual consisting of industrial gas cylinders that have been transformed into sound-generating machines, that interact with the sound of the old pipe infrastructure inside the Kraftwerk building. The installation and performance are about transformation and decontextualisation: The old industrial gas cylinders evoke associations mostly true in the network of people, hierarchies, processes, rules and things that make up an “industrial production site”. Torn out of this associative network, dis-placed and re-positioned, the objects no longer fulfil their intended purpose. Thus, they become free to be something else: a resonating body, a source of sonic irritation in space, objects of uncertainty, enigmatic in their aesthetics. Questions arise about our history, the structures and transformations of power and energy, suppressions and conflicts resulting from our limited resources, and the changing contexts of a post-industrial age.
