CODEC ERROR

f1 trailer video
Codec Error
For double bass, 2 percussionists and light
2017

This work is a composition including music, light and choreography. It examines the body of the performer and its representation in the digital age. The use of strobe lights and highly synchronized light patterns visualizes the performer on stage in a videoclip-like way.
The continuity and presence of the players is subject to alterations and error-like manipulations that we know from a crashed computer program - digital mistakes.
The theme of the composition picks up a trend of our times, in which body images, appearances become increasingly artificial and constructed. Everything is manipulated, virtual and edited all the time. The body is subject to digital manipulation, the entity is infringed.

and all the best,
Alexander
