Sound as an active ingredient for ketong sculpture has been an expression of electro-acoustic and visual form since 1989. Due to the lack of resources, the imagination of trash materials such as cardboard and old wood as well as bulky waste electronics create a realization in order to meet the chaos - indeed to give the day-to-day challenge of an autistic perception a limit as mental security. The number as an ordering element can be overlooked as an invisible indicator of an informal - organic nature.
In the exhibition in the underground car park in Cologne, the sound artist will show a self-made trash loudspeaker, which consists of a heating exhaust pipe and a non-functional pressure gauge for oxygen (souerstoff) and serves as an open process of a performance with friends and colleagues.
The informal flood of materiality is formed there by the limitation of an intuitive mathematics and narrowed to strict conception.
