Sound composition for Mythological space pathologies.
In Schwäne Zählen I set out in search of the mythological animal in the respective commune. The path is captured by an audio recording. By creating a variant of an audio walk this path is archived in a quasi-documentary way.
In contrast to the conventional audio walks, there are no specific references to the acoustic scenery by a voice-over commentary. Instead, the spoken title at the beginning marks the program of the following and aligns the listening posture. Only at the moment when a swan becomes visible for me, the voice is audible, counting further. The result is a programmatic concrete sound space, temporalized by my movement through the city and randomly appearing artifacts (wind noise, distortions of the digital audio signal) becoming real only when listened to.
