Echoes in the Mesh (2025, UA) - for four musicians, improvisation machine, and electronics
Echoes in the Mesh explores the fragile space where human presence dissolves into digital structure through an audiovisual dialogue between human intention and machine mediation. The project challenges human improvisers with chaos and unpredictability, fostering new processes of inspiration through the feedback of echo and resonance — the transformation of gestures, data, memories, and habits via latency, feedback loops, and digital translation — between the quartet and the improvisation machine Aiii.
Signals return altered, refracted into acoustic afterimages that blur presence and identity. The performance unfolds as an interconnected sonic network in which textures circulate, collide, and mutate rather than follow a linear narrative.
The project was presented during the series Trio KSZ - concerts with guests 2024-2025, with the kind support of:
City of Zurich Cultural Department, Nicati-de Luze Foundation, Ernst Göhner Foundation, Zurich Cantonal Cultural Office, SUISA Foundation, Oertli Foundation, Emma and Curt Burgauer Foundation, Swiss Performers' Foundation
