audio-DH: sonic manifestations by 250 creators from Den Haag/The Hague

On 25, May 2016 | No Comments | In Event, news | By admin

I have submitted a short piece for ‘audio-DH’, a collaborative project involving artists somehow related to Den Haag. An official public presentation/premiere will take place at Korzo Theater as part of TodaysArt Festival, on SEPTEMBER 22nd, although I will not be present.

The project ‘audio-DH’ presents the work of 250 experimental artists/creators from/based in The Hague. Some fifty invited curators have collaborated to probe the waters -both those normally reached by sunlight and other, more bathyal, ones- of the sonically adventurous creative ocean that has been persistenty flooding the city of The Hague for quite some time now.

Forcefully illustrating the worldwide, decades-long, explosive and expansive ‘socialization’ of creativity; including all kinds of groups, ideologies, collectives, generations and aesthetics; and encompassing the wide spectrum of ‘experimental’ practices –from noise to contemporary, from improvised to algortihmic, from documentative to highly composed- ‘audio-DH’ aims at unequivocally placing The Hague in its rightful place as one the most sonically creative cities in the world.

In addition to the individual work of the artists/creators involved, this project presents the results of a specifically developed software –aptly named ‘HARING’- that autonomously recombines and transforms all these sonic contributions into a new mega-composition. Taking center stage, and unassisted by any human controller, ‘HARING’ will perform the presentation concert of ‘audio-DH’ in Korzo Theater.
