Polish Art Week: DO 555ps AV: Jerzy Mączyński & Katarzyna Dębska with Rabih Beaini, Nour Sokhon / Czajka & Puchacz

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

Expanded visually by Katarzyna Dębska, a version of Jerzy Mączyński’s album DO 555ps released this year in Norway, developed together into an audiovisual multichannel piece- a tour de force of spacious, galactic sound design and images that lean into drone, minimalism and the rich history of sci-fi soundtracks for a suite of astral proportions, crafted from sound bank of samples from sopranino and tenor saxophone, the layered compositions tweak the reedy textures of Mączyński’s acoustic instruments and Dębska’s language merging photos, videos and 3d imaginarium into uncanny forms that seem to expand and contract simultaneously across time and space. The piece opens with the stratospheric ‘Requiem for the EARTH’S nature’, a slab of reverb-heavy outer-space ambience, throbbing synths and insistent kicks - a eulogy for the apocalypse, imagined in sound and video.
The universe of DO 555ps unfolds across the brooding fourth world explorations, the synthetic redemption and densely fine grain as “a dry rocky place of hope covered by sonic lava” – an exercise in audiovisual world-building that surges, swells and shudders a vision of the new planet into being. From the pulsating, sparse phrasing to the nebulous interzones, DO 555ps is an audiovisual immersive piece of sonic cinema and a paean to lost futures, best experienced as an unbroken whole.

The performance will be joined in the second part by Rabih Beaini and Nour Sokhon adding new layers of sounds and text.

The evening will also feature Czajka & Puchacz (SI, PL) - a Slovenian-based duo whose work bridges the aesthetics of European free improvisation, musique concrète, and instant songwriting. Following their debut acoustic album Bivališča and the retro-avant-pop single Entschuldigung (as Kiebitz & Uhu), they continue to explore experimental forms rooted in existential reflection and abstraction of everyday life.
