Quantum lyricum A piece for sensors, electrodes and a choreographic group
On the one hand (quantum), there are clear references to the accumulating and discharging mechanical energy. On the other (lyricum), a subjective element appears as a thread wandering in the mechanical-synthetic universe. The group of dancers implements a choreographic idea, filling it to a large extent with improvised content. However, this idea is not limited to the kinetic layer only. Through a system of 16 sensors located in the performance space and 3 sets of electrodes attached to the dancers' hands, an additional sonic layer of the piece is also created. The choreography takes the form of sound waves, thus influencing the resulting musical form of the work. The performers become the cogs of the sonokinetic machine. Driving it consistently. However, here and there eruptions of spontaneous beings can be seen. Timidly but consistently they break out of the mechanical structure. It would seem that, as a result, they will change it from the inside, leading to the collapse of the system. Is this really the case? Or maybe they only reveal its lyrical and spiritual nature while maintaining the mechanical status quo?
The recording of the piece was attended by the Eurytmic Group of Ignacy Jan Paderewski Academy of Music in Poznań.
