Vancouver New Music presents Parallel 06: Ioana Vreme Moser Screaming Minerals
Vancouver New Music welcomes Berlin-based Romanian sound artist Ioana Vreme Moser for the latest edition of Parallels, a workshop-performance series that brings together guest artists in collaboration with local musicians and community members.
In her North American debut, Moser will present Screaming Minerals, a sonic lecture-performance that follows the rise of information technologies and their environmental decay.
In her practice, she uses rough electronic processes to obtain different materialities of sound. She places electronic components and control voltages in different situations of interaction with her body, organic materials, lost and found items, and environmental stimuli. From these collisions, synthesized sounds emerge to carry personal narrations and observations on the history of electronics, their production chains, wastelands, and entanglements in the natural world.
Ioana Vreme Moser will present Screaming Minerals, a sonic lecture-performance that follows the rise of information technologies and their environmental decay. As algorithms become intelligent exponentially, the project delves into their transistorized hardware bodies their materialities, entangled politics, fragility and toxicity. This lecture-performance is enhanced by a collaborative installment-style performance featuring participants from Sizzling Semiconductors, a 3-day workshop taking place in advance of the concert.
