Honoured to have shared the stage with Kristin Norderval during the first edition of INTERSECT.series on April 19th!
“Between air, folds & voltage” explores sound and movement in the framework of free improvisation involving voice, accordion, and real-time audio processing with gestural controllers. Both performers are using Genki WAVE MIDI rings as controllers to highlight and integrate gestural movements into their musical practice. Acoustic interactions with the space and the qualities of spatial extension are a central focus. As two performers 40+ years apart in age and from different countries (US/BE), Norderval and Vanhaverbeke investigate the aesthetic possibilities that can emerge from collaborations between composer-performers from different generations, nationalities, and musical training, using different modes of real-time signal processing.
