Mirror images flicker with strange un-likeness
the re-placement of parts, growing rampant
Feel the separated breath flowing into the wrong pipe, flute rattling,
twitching lips, stuttered tales of faraway consciousness
Stretch out thin skin over my eyebrows, your eyebrows
If you like I could … sing you a lullaby?
The voice too perfect, the humor too smooth, the gaze too vacant – let’s be honest: the last time you chatted with ChatGPT or saw a video of the Tesla Bots, didn’t you also feel this echo of human emotion? A small flicker of connection. And in the next moment a wave of disgust or distrust. How does it feel when something has memorized what it means to be human? The boundaries between the human and the machine, between the animate and the inanimate are increasingly dissolving – no longer are they only to be found in the narratives of science fiction. The project “Post-Bodies” explores these in-between spaces of the Uncanny Valley and the liminal zone in which perceptions shift and certainties dissolve. Acoustic instruments meet modular synthesizers, sensors and interactive music systems. Composition and improvisation intertwine with performative elements, creating a multi-layered space, in which the ensemble addresses the discomfort with the almost-human and the uncertainty we face when we can no longer clearly define.
This concert is being funded by #MusikerZukunft Deutsche Orchester-Stiftung.
Ensemble Biographie
The ensemble chaos|cadence — comprising Ariadne Dalatsi (voice), Sophie Kockler (clarinet), Jorma Marggraf (piano), and Adrian Thieß (trumpet and electronics) — was formed during their studies at the Conservatory of Lübeck. Their work focuses on the development of interdisciplinary concert formats that merge classical and contemporary music with text, visual art, performance, and new media. In their projects, they aim to build bridges between music from different periods, with a particular emphasis on contemporary music. Experimentation with and exploration of acoustic and electronic sound worlds play as significant a role as the contextualization of these elements. chaos|cadence was awarded the Possehl Music Prize for New Musical Performance Concepts in January 2023 and the Prize for Originality at the D-bü Competition in Nuremberg in May 2024. Their current concert tour is funded by the Deutsche Orchesterstiftung.
