TIM SHAW & DIRTY ELECTRONICS – TRANSMISSION LINES

Eine neue Performance Installation für Funkenstreckenübertragung und elektromagnetisches Spektrum.
Funkenstrecken aus Alltagsgegenständen, die als leitende Elektroden verwendet werden. Metallschrott, Blechdosen

Dosen, Stühle, Fässer, Kochutensilien und ein Fahrradrad werden aufgehängt und durch durch performative Aktionen und motorische Mechanismen bewegt, um intensive elektrische Funken und rohen Klang zu kreieren. Während Radiowellen, die von den Hochspannungskonstruktionen von DIY-Spulen, Klangschaltungen und tragbaren Radios abgenommen werden. Sequenzen von geladenen Xenon-Kamerablitzen Blitzlichtern, Franklin-Glocken, Jacobs-Leitern und elektromagnetischen Pumpen werden in die Umgebung eingefügt.
Eine waghalsige Reise durch die Gefahrenzone von Hochspannungslicht und -klang.

Dirty Electronics & Tim Shaws Transmission Lines wurde während eines kürzlichen Aufenthaltes in einem alten Holzlager in Yamaguchi, Japan entwickelt.

John Richards explores Dirty Electronics focusing on shared experiences, social interaction and critical making. He is concerned with the performance of large-group electronic music and DIY electronics, and he has come to consider these activities as a holistic action. It is a fluid, live practice associated with the ideas of workshop-installation and performance-installation. His work pushes the boundaries between music, performance art, electronics, and graphic design and is transdisciplinary as well as having a socio-political dimension. He has also written numerous texts on DIY practices, performance of electronic music, and object-orientated and material approaches in relation to sound art.
