Looking within, the first two titles are impressions which are formally structured and orchestrated but each time collectively shaped anew in swarm-like and fluid movements. The 18-minute “Currents” flows through complex swaying rhythms steadily upstream, whatever may come, on and on.Oliver Roth – fl, altflHelena Weinstock-Montag – fl, altflViktor Wolf – cl, bcl, fl, altflJohannes Schleiermacher – barsax, fl, altflDaniel Glatzel – ts, cl, bcl, ac-guit, comp.Magnus Schriefl – tpJohannes Böhmer – tpAndrej Ugoljew – tbFabiana Striffler – vGrégoire Simon – vIsabelle Klemt – vcJörg Hochapfel – keyMaria Schneider – vib, percAnna Viechtl – harpKalle Zeier – guitOliver Potratz – bAndi Haberl – drDate: 18.04.2021Location: radialsystemGraphics: Henning WagenbrethKamera: Beat HalberschmidtLight: Jörg BittnerRecording: Jonas HinzMixing: Daniel Glatzel——————————————–Cosmic Swarm Laboratory “Lacerta Cluster”——————————————–“Likolit” is the name of an abandoned linoleum factory that towers over the surrounding roofs of Kohlmühle, a tiny village situated in the middle of the magical landscape of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains (between Saxony and Bohemia). The eponymous composition, inspired by the old plant and written by Johannes Schleiermacher, plays with the relationship between individual vs. swarm, thus creating a framework within the “Cosmic Swarm Laboratory” where musicians, algorithm and sonographer can interact.Helena Weinstock-Montag – fl, bassflViktor Wolf – fl, bcl, tsJohannes Schleiermacher – fl, ts, compJörg Hochapfel – keysMaria Schneider – vib, percAndi Haberl – dr, elecThomas Peter – algorithmChristoph Rothmeier – sonograph
