Radio Papesse

YHT is an artistic project in the field of electroacoustic sound experimentation. Having worked together for six years now, the two artists Claus Störmer and Johannes Krause from Halle/Saale can look back on a large number of different projects. The spectrum of their work encompasses free sound work and experimental short film scores as well as radio plays. They regard their sound compositions as being on the edge of film and its narrative and imaginary character.

This compositional and aesthetical point of view is reflected in their piece RE, a combination of recorded live performances and produced radio plays. With structure-borne sound converters which have been attached to metal plates and with several field recordings, real and computer-generated rooms have been brought together. As a consequence, the listener perceives sounds which can either be recognized or not. The intention is to establish a listening experience at the intersection of realness and fiction.

The second part of the show will present the current project of two artists living in Berlin. Francois Sallé (France) and Tatsumi Ryusui (Japan) bring together their vision of experimentation - each in his own way: Ryusui by playing guitar in his very own style, Sallé by contributing field recordings and computer-generated sounds.Their teamwork yields very intuitive performances with constantly different progression and character.
