Error#440
See the sound, Hear the movement
Error#440 is a surreal conference-show combining contemporary circus, live music, and improbable inventions.
Two eccentric presenters blur the line between visual and sound, turning everything that is seen into sound and
everything that is heard into movement.
On stage, an experimental sound laboratory comes to life. PVC pipes become acoustic oscillators: each length corresponds to a specific frequency, which can be transformed into rhythm and melody.
Audio cables are not just connections: by tracing sine waves through space, they make the smallest unit of sound visible. Microphones, suspended above the speakers, generate feedback. A mistake for many, for us an instrument to manipulate.
A true ground for sound research, evoking the minimalism of Steve Reich. The body, connected to an amplifier, enters the circuit as an electrical source: impulses and biological noises become musical material. And to close the circle, the theremin: the first electronic instrument in history, played without contact, modulating electromagnetic fields with the simple movement of the hands.
And behind the scenes? Computer programming, soldering, sound compositions, material physics, studies ofoptics and electronics, and manipulation routines for unconventional objects.
