Video of the performance:


“On the way to finding a contrasting, more human analogy to the widely used crowd models that flow through social science, I tried to dig deep into the sea and grasp the sponge and its sonic habitat. The first attempt was the simple German similarity between the Schwarm (crowd) and the Schwamm (sponge) that trapped my interest into these early metazoans, but their behavior reveals astonishing analogies to our social reality in the contemporary world. Not the dynamic fluid model of a swarm but the sponge and its versatile re-aggregates seems to create an appropriate analogy to human behavior. Like a picture puzzle that oscillates between the past and the present, reflecting stages of herd behaviour as well as individual decisions of gregarious mammals.”

A sonic essay on Functional Illustration presented live on Radio Orange 94.0 (Radio Helsinki 92.6 Graz area), and via video-conference-FMfeedback-loop. Get off-line to listen, get on-line to participate.
