December 7 – performance w/ Elena Victoria Pastor
liveImprovised noise performance with Elena Victoria Pastor at Frappant Hamburg, December 7 at 8 pm
Opening of Implantations exhibition.
Implantations takes root in the memory of trees, engaging the arboreal as mnemonic, method, and mode of relation. Featuring video, paper-based, poetic, and performance works by Elena Victoria Pastor and ruïns collective (Elias Parvulesco and Teta Tsybulnyk) this project reflects upon the incorporation of trees into anthropocentric remembrance structures, while also engaging with the subjectivity of trees as deeply reciprocal entities that are not just in the world, but of it.
Trees, among other plants, are indistinguishable from their environs, consistently reacting to and changing what surrounds them. They participate in what Emanuele Coccia calls a “mutual compenetration between subject and environment, body and space, life and medium.” This compenetration extends to memory itself, which is shared by bark and brain, leaf and limb, bough and body. As the works in Implantations suggest, if we turn our attention to the arboreal and speak with its embodied articulations of the past, present, and future, we can learn how to better enact modes of mutuality with a dynamic and vibrant network of entities and forces.
Join us between 19 hrs –21 hrs for the opening on December 7, featuring a performance activation and sonic improvisations by Elena Victoria Pastor in collaboration with David Wallraf at 20hrs.

Kunsthaus again
liveKunsthaus Hamburg is celebrating its 60th birthday with a symposium. I was invited to do something with sound on the occasion: „interactive live sampling“. I’ll be recording the different panels/speakers and use that as source material for two improvisations. At the least it will be „discourse on art turned into art“, maybe even a comment on something.
At Kunsthaus Hamburg, Klosterwall 15 / 20095 Hamburg. November 4, from 10 am to 6 pm. My performances at 1 pm and 6 pm.
