Violeta actively engages in experimentation with extended
techniques, prepared instruments, and the exploration of dynamic,
rhythmic, and original melodic combinations during her intense
performances.

acid solar temple summer solstice
'when summer solstice happens once a year, we can try to resume
and witness our cosmic entanglement, together with a
light-refracting precious stone; navigation by refraction; within
a moment of scattering sunlight; slowly ~ with our planetary time,
connecting cosmic energy + times by bodily spatialisation: acid
collège is inviting to perform further physicosmical
investimeshments~'

"... In the indifferent brutality, incessant noise, the
experimental chemistry of food, the ravings of lost hysterical
men, I can act with clarity and meaning..." (Sam Melville). The
KlangrauschenKollektiv performs the iconoclastic work "Coming
Together" by Frederic Rzewski from 1972, alongside telepathic
improvisations.
KlangrauschenKollektiv is formed by students and professors or the
music academy Lübeck.
Bobby Conn and Monica BouBou are excited to return to the
Avantgarde Festival for their first European performance since
2017! They will debut electronic based music from the new album
"Bobby's Place" coming in August 2025 on Tapete Records, featuring
modular synths, violin, guitar and vocals. Despite the dark shadow
of Fascism spreading across the USA and the world in general,
Bobby remains absurdly optimistic. He has been warning us about
the danger of complacency in the face of tyranny with a twinkle in
his eye and a catchy tune for 30 years; he's not stopping now!The
times get heavy, but Bobby is staying weird!

A trinity of finely-tuned triggers with the build of a gently
moody cyclops, whose autopsy will reveal traces of pure lyrical
emphasis beneath the steaming crumbs of flonflons pulverized by a
ferocious groove.

The duo Machineries is a collaboration between synthesizer
sorceresses Mustelide and Chikiss, who conjure their machines to
craft soundscapes of electro-baroque and dystopian fantasy
fiction. The concept took root after discovering the 1984 book
"The Creative Computer" abandoned on the streets of Berlin, which
is dedicated to proto-AI technologies, but in a more romantic and
human way. Touching visual canvases and poems composed by the
machines of that era inspired the artists to turn to the machines
of this time for new stories. A kind of synthesis of the past &
future, a scenario of cosmic chaos, krautrock passages, and
web-disco revelations.

Saeko navigates these in between sounds using signposts from her
dreams, guided through the space-time distortion loops as if by a
vision. The true meaning of this vision might not be immediately
clear - but who minds, when the search for that meaning sounds
this good?

Time suspended as shapes and forms escape. Lights fades with
erosion. Perception of altered visions. Secret sonic vapour trails
envelop and shred horizons. Melting shadows outline forms. Stars
black out light. Corrupted as time folds away.
Movement. Sound. Lies.
Solitude.
Space and time respond.
Touched.
Sudden impulses exploring the sonic and visual work of

What would our existence look like if sound was our primary
interface with reality? Imagine growing up in a culture that
doesn’t think visually but acoustically. How would you perceive
landscapes if you hadn't first learned to dissect them by looking?
You hear during the day and at night, you perceive things long
before you can see them, and while you can look away, you cannot
stop hearing.
WaveRoom is a hyperspace in which the continent of Europe is
rendered as a phonogram. Space and time contract to such an extent
that the landmass fits into an attic. The 24 hours of a day
condense into 24 minutes.
Ole Blank has created a composition of field recordings captured
during a 30,000-kilometer road trip along the coastline
surrounding the European continent. This composition will be
presented in a specially designed sound dome.

"Imagine That Light Is A Fish" is an absurdity, the snake eating
its tale. Straight from the human cavity – the ultimate black hole
– the great Cosmic Mouth sings its tune!

“The only rule we follow is that there’s no wrong way to create,”
says Karó. “We’re obsessed with trying new things and finding more
extreme ways to come up with sounds.” “It’s like our music is a
world we’ve made for ourselves, as a way to keep exploring new
sounds and new ideas,” Hrabba adds. “Nothing is ever a mistake;
it’s about having fun and doing what we want and fucking
everything up if that feels right. Rebelliousness is definitely a
big part of what drives us.”

It is a testament to the past, to desecrated presents, and to the
sacred horizon that is the future...
The unchanging future which is always hope of change.
