SCHURER / STEINBRÜCHEL — Falte

"Falte is methodically based upon a technique invented by the surrealists entitled 'exquisite corpse'. A method by which a collection of words, images or sounds are assembled collectively in sequence, either by following a rule or by delivering and making visible the 'ending' of what has been created previously. This procedure has a resemblance to an old parlor game entitled 'consequences', in which the players write alternately on a sheet of paper, fold it to conceal part of what they wrote and pass it on for further contribution. Based on this process a series of compositions by Schurer > Steinbrüchel was presented in september 2006 as an eight channel surround soundinstallation at the Kunsthaus Zurich, accompanied by a four channel visual contribution by Yves Netzhammer. The version on this CD documents a condensed, slightly more composed and therefore differentiated form of folding.' Limited edition: 300." [label info]
