Christoph Hess is the "Soundzz.z.zzz...z" winner
Strotter Inst., a project by Christoph Hess from Bern, has won this year's "Soundzz.z.zzz...z" competition organized by the Lucerne Festival and the Lucerne Art Museum.
For Delokation, Strotter Inst. took three works from the festival program and remixed them: What remains of the identity of the original? And how much independence does a new work that has been generated entirely from existing material gain?
Delokation can be experienced in three "aggregate states" during the summer festival: At the Kunstmuseum, Strotter Inst. presents the remixes, supplemented by a film collage, via a screening and fragmentarily in several sound installations. At the Lucerne Festival, he will perform Delokation as a live remix in two performances with "artiste étoile" Patricia Kopatchinskaja and turntable artist Jorge Sánchez-Chiong.
The aim of the competition is to link the two cultural fields of music and visual arts: young, up-and-coming artists are invited to develop an ephemeral, performative, actionist project at the interface of these arts on the respective Lucerne Festival theme.
