Digital overpaintings for a project with André Heller"The project Voices of God got together 100 ancient musicians from all over the world at one powerful place: Marrakech. The musicians were invited by us to collaborate on the formation of a very special event. In the existing time-space-intersection in Marrakech, a unique sphere of spirituality and tolerance which was perceptible all of the time fledged. Just as if the thousand kilometre distance among the single cultures and the just as many prejudices against the foreign and the others were effortlessly conquerable"The digital overpaintings originate from this experience: this, which could develop itself in an
intercultural microscope in Marrakech, was modulated – in a considered way – by the technical and aesthetical instruments of our digital, globalised media reality:
A specifically developed
sound-space-generator was feeding the original sounds into the virtual vastness of internet, there it was sending them around the world and finally transforming them through microstructural overlaps in real space. The digital overpaintings thus originated in a kind of On-Line-Jam-Session:
The sounds were transformed in
different aggregate states and reorganised in a completely new aesthetic context. You can find these worth-hearing results on the ORF Ö1 CD-Edition.
