In the context of the Fiber festival, a multi-day festival dedicated to new art, a performance will take place in the Orgelpark. Canadian sound artist Navid Navab presents 'Organism'. Using pipes from a historic Casavant organ, he built a playable installation. The wind that passes through the pipes in this installation can be manipulated in a special way. Navab experiments with timbres, wind pressure and pitches.
About the artist
Navid Navab is an antidisciplinary composer with a background in contemporary music, biomedical sonification, and philosophical biology. Through an investigative ArtScience practice, Navab's recent creations meticulously stage uncanny forms of order by imbuing machines with a sense of liveliness through fusion with the excitable dynamics of matter. These investigative works orchestrate sensory attunement to forms of life, at the pre-metabolic border between breathing and not breathing, while cybernetically enfolding their excitable dynamics.
