The field in between – a video installation

Ingar Zach presents small video miniatures of vibrating material on a membrane. The videos are shot with an iPhone in slow motion, and the audio is pitched down. New material emerges in the process of slowing down time. The videos are presented in four loops with different lengths, which opens up endless visual and audible combinations. The audio fills the room in an omni-configuration.

The concert is part of the Ultima festival.

The vibrating drum, developing a musical practice for the modern percussionist

The urge of exploring new ways of approaching the instrument is the major driving force for an improvising musician. In percussionist Ingar Zach's case, it is a natural need and a responsibility to search for alternative techniques and possibilities of sound on his instrument.
