MUNICH AGAINST
The Indian Sonic Research Organisation live
(Germany meets India)
With Wolfgang Spahn (Berlin), Yashas Shetti (Bangalore) and more!
AGAINST any monolithic definition of beauty
AGAINST quantifying success in any way possible
AGAINST giving space to neoliberalism in subculture
A meeting. A laboratory. Sounds from Indian tribes influenced by western radio music and sounds of Kraut musicians from Bavaria that traveled to Bangalore in the 70s. Surprise collaborations between subcultures. On the menu : Live performances and DJ sets that comment on cultural exchanges in a post-colonialism world.
The Indian Sonic Research Organisation is a collective dedicated to the proliferation of creative music and experiments in sound. They are instrument builders and artists. Their performances incorporate DIY and home-made instruments made with discarded electronics and other found objects. They also run a community music lab and record label which disseminates works by Asian composers, sound artists and musicians.
Yashas Shetty lives and works in Bangalore/India. His practice is situated in the intersection between art, science and pedagogy, creating situations of dialogue between artists, scientists and the larger community. Working between various disciplines including installation, sound, software and biotechnology, Shetty often creates assemblages/collages of various life forms using techniques borrowed from genetic engineering and synthetic biology.
Wolfgang Spahn is an Austrian-German visual artist based in Berlin. His work includes interactive installations, miniature-slide-paintings and performances of light & sound. His art explores the field of analogue and digital media and focusses on both their contradiction and their correlation. That’s why he is also specialised in re-appropriated and re-purposed electronic technologies.
