Do the voices or questions fade away unheard?
(Lines from 'SOUNDACTIVISM 017" by Isabella Zamboni + Knut Remond)
"FROZENTONES“ is made with the voice of Jacob with the poem "Grodek" by Georg Trakl.
The sound material are recordings of a keyboard instrument (grand piano). I processed the recorded sounds, resonances of the grand piano to connect the sort of kneaded tone constructs with documentary cellphone materials* from war zones.
* Context: The US-American general John Allen speaks at the Democratic Convention 28 July 2016 (Hillary Clinton nomination); Bombing in Jemen (2015); Military aircraft from nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Harry S. Truman".
The grand piano recordings were preparations for workshops at basic schools in Sachsen-Anhalt. Most of the schools have a piano which the pupils halfway know as an accompanying instrument, but not as a resonating sound body that can be taken apart.
