Our collaborative performance project Recursions is selected for ADE Sound Lab 2016. Recursions is a new audiovisual performance by musician / composer Robin Koek (Cyspe) and audiovisual artist collective DEFRAME. In this layered show the audience experiences a dialogue between image, sound and space. Epicentre of the performance is a kinetic sculpture – based on the work of cybernetics pioneer Nicolas Schöffer – which merges live video, software-generated visuals and electronic music. By linking the sculpture to algorithmic software Recursions is a play between self-organization, control and losing control. The result: a unique live set based on an unexpected collection of frequencies and patterns.
Robin Koek (Cyspe) is a composer, musician and designer of artistic systems for installations and interactive dance works. He is one half of the techno duo Artefakt. In his solo project Cyspe, Koek is navigating the space between techno and the electro-acoustic world.
DEFRAME is a collective of artists that develops audiovisual and interactive installations, live performances and visual scenography. They concentrate on merging space, visuals, code and various types of media.
Recursions is made possible by FIBER and the support of the Creative Industry Fund NL and will be performed on Thursday October 20th, 15:00, at Compagnietheater Amsterdam. More info here.
