第二届明天音乐节邀请Tarek Atoui表演他的《The Metastable Circuit》, 这是他2012年为在德国卡塞尔举行的dOCUMENTA13设计和建造的装置。这个装置可以根据艺术家自其从事声音和音乐以来收集和录制的上千种声音中生成故事和拼贴作品。不管是输入还是演奏,The Metastable Circuit每次能生成不同的声音和功能供艺术家们听、学或者同步即兴演出。

Tarek Atoui 1980年出生在黎巴嫩,1998年定居巴黎,是一名专门从事声音效果的艺术家。他擅长创造信息工具并将其用于所有的艺术形式。他的最新作品在很多规模宏大的当代艺术活动如la dOCUMENTA、威尼斯双年展、沙加双年展中均有过展示。

Beirut-based musician, sound artist and programmer Tarek Atoui created an autonomous electroacoustic instrument called the “Metastable Circuit” especially for dOCUMENTA (13) in Kassel: a networked ensemble of desks made of computers, hard and software, controllers, touchpads, conductors and wired interface and control boards that continuously generates new stories and collages from a seemingly inexhaustible source of concrete sound material.
Tarek Atoui has been collecting, recording and sampling thousands of sounds and noises for many years now. Whenever “Metastable Circuit” is played, the instrument changes its sounds and brings the artist into a situation where he simultaneously listens, learns and improvises, says the artist. It is less the immediate sound modulation but rather the mixing of sounds and the playing of diverse samples that is at the forefront. A gentle string sound meets electronic beats and classical drums encounter diffuse, dense whirring. Tarek Atoui’s performance is a fascinating, virtuoso and tactile musical game that stimulates our senses and, in doing so, indiscernibly undertakes great epic journeys through the history and aesthetics of listening. The seemingly irreconcilable embarks on this audial obstacle course in a perpetually flowing river that unites all.

O artista libanês Tarek Atoui e a performance “Metastable Circuit 2” que apresentou na Bienal do Mercosul, em Porto Alegre, e da dOCUMENTA de Kassel, na Alemanha.

A performance usa um instrumento musical autônomo, criado por ele, que gera narrativas e colagens a partir de milhares de sons que o artista recuperou, coletou e gravou desde que começou sua carreira com a música. O dispositivo permite mudar os sons e as funções, que gera um improviso permanente.

“Metastable Circuit” foi criado por Atoui em julho deste ano em Kassel para a dOCUMENTA13, um dos eventos de arte contemporânea mais importantes do mundo, que acontece a cada cinco anos na cidade alemã. Com o instrumento, o artista se apresentou dezesseis vezes em diversos locais de Kassel. A performance também foi mostrada em Porto Alegre, na Bienal do Mercosul.
