Thörn (S)
Pär
Thörn (born 1977) is a Swedish live-electronic musician, writer and
conceptual artist. He wants to emphasize the mechanical and material
aspects of the taperecorder and the unsecure element in the use of
radio. The music moves between sinewaves, circuit bending, clicking
stroboscopes, metallic sounds, chanting sound poetry and brutal
screams that get juxtaposed with the found material of the radios.
Thörn's record Schöneberg/Stammheim/Gärdet/Rågsved
(Treffpunkt) got nominated as the best Swedish experimental music
record during 2008. Currently he is active in projects with the
dancer Takako Suzuki, the turntablist Ignaz Schick, the saxophone
player Martin Küchen and the trumpet player Axel Dörner.

Tomoko
Sauvage (J/F)
Tomoko
Sauvage, Japanese musician/sound artist based in Paris, has been
working on waterbowls,
porcelain bowls of different sizes, filled with water and amplified
with hydrophones (under-water microphones)*. She plays with different
forms of water – drops, waves and bubbles resonating in the bowls
as well as audio feedback creating waving drones and natural
overtones. Her work is about the delicate balance between controlled
and uncontrolled with random percussion of droplets, acoustic
characteristics of the space and the fragile tonality created with
the fluid materials constantly evaporating and moving. Sauvage has
been giving performances, exhibitions and workshops in Europe, US,
Canada and Japan, often in solo but also in collaboration with
musicians and choreographers. Her works have been released by and/OAR
(US), aposiopèse (BE), dokidoki editions (FR). In 2011, a new set of
porcelain bowls was created during her residency at La
Pommerie
(FR) in collaboration with Ceramic Research Center in Limoges
(CRAFT).
