Sour-Sweet & Spicy Stream

Two public presentation events marked the conclusion of the artists’ laboratory. The first event, a one-day/one-night format, took place on August 17–18 in Stadt Wehlen, Germany, within the Saxon Switzerland National Park. The second event, a one-night format, followed on August 23 at SLUG Gallery in Leipzig. (here)

During the open event we will share the outcome of the laboratory, processes, sonic explorations and wonders, tuning dreams, performances, and site-specific collective flow which you are warmly invited to join and be-come part of.

 

Sound as the message of the profound potential for connection, meditation, and reflection that lies within the simple act of collective listening. Sound as the body itself—vibrating, resonating, and carrying the memory traces of its surroundings. The voice, as an extension of the body, possesses an interconnected quality with the material world. It is not confined to a singular, individual expression but emerges as a collective and interwoven spectral experience. The ability to listen. The choice to listen. With this year’s edition we confess the strong presence of sound focused–related projects, researches from previous years of laboratories.

How does the sound shape us? And how is the sound present? That sounds…

How does technology, which uses electricity coexist with nature and how do they nourish, inspire each other? How to approach technology in a sustainable way where the mycelium of structure is decentralized, does not own and does not exploit?

As part of the Open Torhaus event, guests were welcomed to explore a series of individual exhibitions installed throughout the unused spaces of the Torhaus Gallery an Studio. 

The event continued with a guided walk into the surrounding forest, featuring  site-specific installations and  performances.  

Back at the Torhaus, attendees enjoyed a dinner prepared by a resident member, themed around bread. The meal included three dishes featuring five different types of bread, each thoughtfully introduced with background context and stories.
