An almost 4 hours long album comprising cassette/tape manipulations, electroacoustic compositions, algorithmic studies, demodulated radio-frequencies, computer music, excerpts from sound installations, live performances, field recordings, modular synthesizer improvisations, instrumental works, and miscellaneous other rarities/obscurities from the artist’s 20 year old archive. φöρβιρρινγ (2000-20) φöρβιρρινγ is available for free download/streaming via Bandcamp or Internet archive.
The material represents compositional turns the artist did not further invest upon, as well as creative experiments of all sorts that have been published or performed before – yet either only to a limited extend, or not properly documented. In this manner, φöρβιρρινγ (2000-20) exposes the artist’s archive as an ever-contemporary creative playground; as an audio database that ever affords different, and occasionally utterly new, ways to listen to and to re-construct one’s own history/making-of.
