Live-recording of the premiere by Ensemble Mosaik, Ackerstadt Palast, Berlin, 09/09/2020.
Philosopher Timothy Morton refuses to talk about climate change, but insists on calling the times we are living in, the period of the sixth mass extinction. Cause for this new mass extinction is the “run-away effect” in which several human-caused ecological changes feed back into eachother until they spin out of control. In “Inhibition Space #1” this feedback effect, is being transposed into the sonic realm.
The three bass woodwind instruments (bass flute, baritone saxophone & bass clarinet), are able to create feedback through the interaction between a speaker standing next to them and a microphone inserted in their instrument. The feedback frequencies can be manipulated through the fingerings on the instruments and their position relative to the speaker. Custom-built software then further manipulates the sounds. All this creates a close-knit, hybrid ecology of multidirectional relationships, which can be controlled only partly, between the human performers, their instruments, technological expansions, and the performative space.
