Eye for an ear festival: Installations
The Installations are part of the Eye for an ear festival 2013 and are Free to attend.
Wolfgang Bittner / Alfredo Ciannameo / Mortiz Fehr
Viewing Monday to Sunday June 24-29th
In the installation Circular Shift, Wolfgang Bittner continues his experiments in expanding 2-D projection into spatial arrangements. By means of fragmentation, dissection and layering, the projected image is transformed into three-dimensional structures. Composing both physical structure as well as projected imagery from fundamental geometric elements, their interplay creates a new aesthetic entity. Temporal events are transformed into spatial stimuli and the interferences of geometric patterns generate rhythmic sequences in space.

Alfredo Ciannameo’s “Ionesis is a sonic plasma performance/installation consisting of three multi-electrode discharge tubes which were originally invented by the scientist Nikola Tesla. These tubes’ transform six electronic audio channels into twelve high voltage sources, initiating an electro-sonic reaction in light plasma as a result. The focus of the work lies in investigating the discharging qualities of plasma. When an electrode discharges the electric field generated by this (electrode) interacts with other electric fields also discharging electrodes within the tube. This result visually into a complex configuration of light cells that are intertwined with one another. The conduction of light is synchronized with the sound in the space. Based on the synaesthetic relation between light and acoustics, ionesis conjures up an immersive cosmological experience”.

The film** “Mojave: A Person was here” **is an experimental exploration of the Mojave Desert, the “Hinterland” of the city of Los Angeles. The film connects 3D images with spatially rendered sounds and noises of both natural and man-made structures found in this area. Many of the sounds heard in the film are inaudible without technical amplification, but present at the places shown in the film. A variety of field recording techniques have been used to find and record these sounds. The connection of the two different types of spatial media creates a hyper-real representation of landscape.
All recordings were made during an artist residency at the Desert Research Station in Hinkley, California (Center for Land Use Interpretation, Los Angeles).
