Portrait of the composer Friedrich Schenker with Sound Waves (2022)
I met Schenker (1942-2013) several times at concerts in Berlin during the last years of his life. A good composer and interesting guy; his alcoholism seemed typical of this generation of GDR-outliving composers. pic.twitter.com/VbqKz3ihHk— Kreidler (@_Kreidler) June 1, 2022

Sehr schöne Sendung von Nina Noeske. Darin auch einige Reflexionen über meinen bei den Donaueschinger Musiktagen 2021 uraufgeführten Film „20:21 Rhythms of History„.
(Dem Manuskript verdanke ich den Hinweis auf das Nietzsche-Zitat in meinem Vortrag über „20:21 Rhythms of History“.)
„Gegenwart“ ist in aller Munde: Während Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht von der „breiten Gegenwart“ spricht, mit einer übergroßen Vielfalt an Möglichkeiten und daher nur wenig „konturiert“, geht Armin Nassehi von den „Gegenwarten“ im Plural aus. Giorgio Agamben indes konstatiert, dass wahre Zeitgenossenschaft mit einem Abstand zur jeweils eigenen Gegenwart einhergeht.
Was aber bedeutet all dies für die aktuelle Musik? Welche Musik lässt sich als ‚Musik der Gegenwart‘ oder wahrhaft ‚zeitgenössische Musik‘ definieren, wenn musikalische Gegenwärtigkeit stets ein Moment der Abweichung – und damit einen Anachronismus – impliziert?

All the bow extending and extended bowings sometimes feel like an extra pair of bows and hands could be of use… So here’s one way to grow a few extra pairs of hands AND bows – extend yourself by projecting yourself over/under yourself! 😊🙃 My first interpretation of Johannes Kreidler’s >Music-19< #17 waaaay back in summer 2020 I did as a fixed multi-channel video, and that was all the fun to make (especially considering the time when I made it, and we all know what was that period about). But - the idea to take this interpretation into the “real” world of performance came true. This live version is based on all the same ideas, it includes (almost) the same animation as the first video, (almost) the same gestures (but also some extra ones), and it is with the live performer present in the space–and then multiplied live with projection of other selves over this one physical body present in the space. Good thing projecting video over yourself blurs your face so no-one can see how much you squint... although I guess if I was not projecting video over myself I probably wouldn’t squint all that much 🤔🤷🏼♀️
