SUPERPOSITION AND THE DIALOGMUSEUM

Premiere of the piece BLENDER on February 14

Internationally renowned artists and groups from the fields of theater, film and music are composing twelve works for ‘Out of Sight’ for the Dialogmuseum’s KlangRaum.

Superposition produced the piece ‘Blender’ for the series curated by Hannes Seidl, which will be premiered on February 14 and 15. In ‘Blender’, the singing of sounds, vocal noises and scraps of speech are interwoven into an organism whose identity remains unclear. The listener encounters the multi-layered voices of a hybrid being that sounds both human and artificial: a fabric of sung and synthetic vocal harmonies, manipulated voice samples, grunts and hisses, breathing, voice output from a learning computer and glitches.

The two artists and musicians Julius Bockelt and Sven Fritz have been working together as Superposition in the context of Atelier Goldstein since 2014. Their experimental music performances use Casio keyboards, learning computers, modular synthesizers, percussive elements, field recordings and their own voices. Their improvisations have been presented at MMK Frankfurt, Museum Folkwang in Essen, documenta fifteen in Kassel and the Goethe Institute in Tokyo, among others.
