Acoustical codes and signs—cryptic forms of information—were distributed throughout town. Seventy-two short audio pieces, each lasting 45 seconds, form the aural elements of this work. The sound structures receive their sources or references from the signals of the telephone, the fax, Morse code, and other signals that transmit information. These were emitted in public spaces such as a department store, the airport, and a railroad station over a period of 100 days. These non-identifiable codes infiltrating everyday life generated interference, resulting in a new perception of the surrounding world. In addition, these sounds were transmitted without prior announce- ment by the local radio station. As a visual equivalent to the sound, graffiti—an abstract logo (sign)—was also distributed all over the town. A stage was centrally installed (at the center of a spiral ramp of a parking garage), which not only combined all the elements, but also served as a performance space during the opening of documenta X for Carsten Nicolai, Mika Vainio, Frank Bretschneider, Olaf Bender, and C.M. von Hausswolff. 1.1 – 3 Exhibition view, documenta X, Kassel, Germany, 1997 1.1 1.2 1.3 2 – bausatz noto ∞ realistic 1998 1998 Four Technics SL – 1210 turntables are integrated into a table.

  • Nicolai-Press-Releas
    CAROLINA NITSCH OLAF NICOLAI Z. POINT October 3 – November 16, 2013 At Carolina Nitsch Project Room Opening and book signing October 3, 6-8 pm Carolina Nitsch is pleased to present Olaf Nicolai’s second solo exhibition with the gallery entitled Z. Point, which consists of 80 photographs, a floor installation and an artist’s book. Z. Point originated with the artist’s 2008 visit to Zabriskie Point in Death Valley, California, a site known for unusually striking geological formations as well as the eponymous film by Michelangelo Antonioni. The location was packed with tourists during the day who were primarily interested the geological significance and may never have heard of Antonioni. In order to explore the area alone Nicolai needed to go there at night. Because of the intense darkness, he used the camera flash on his cell phone to guide his path. As an unintentional result, 80 photographs were taken, documenting this exploration. These images now line the gallery walls in the same order they were taken so that the viewer can also traverse the same path as the artist. Nicolai’s installation presents the viewer with a counter point by exploring this landscape at night as opposed to Antonioni’s bright, sexually powered work. By using the flash at night to capture the landscape, while the sun is on the other side of the planet, Nicolai removes the grandeur of the place and replaces it with a curious sort of longing or searching, as if waiting for life to happen. While "wandering" around in the gallery space and watching the photographed landscape, visitors are in fact moving through another landscape, which is formed by the second piece in the show.

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

    press kit Paradise Kortrijk 2021 26 June - 24 October 2021 Paradise Kortrijk 2021 Triennial for June 26 - contemporary art October 24, 2021 Paradise Kortrijk 2021 press file 26 June - 24 October 2021 Introduction p.3 Paradise and utopia p.5 Participating artists p.8 List of works p.9 The curators p.67 Practical information & contact p.68 2 / 68 Paradise Kortrijk 2021 press file 26 June - 24 October 2021 INTRODUCTION From 26 June to 24 October 2021 the second Kortrijk Triennial will take place: Paradise Kortrijk 2021. Paradise Kortrijk 2021 is the successor to Play Kortrijk 2018, the interactive art event that transformed the city of Kortrijk three years ago into a playground of contemporary artworks at various indoor and outdoor locations in the city, and which was a real success with more than 175,000 visitors. The second edition maintains the recipe for success - a dynamic and free urban exhibition with interactive works of art by an ambitious list of Belgian and international artists in various indoor and outdoor locations in the city of Kortrijk - and focuses on the utopian dream of paradise. The project draws inspiration from our zeitgeist and is a reaction to our current living environment, which sometimes seems miles away from a hopeful, positive and utopian environment. “Our arts festival Paradise will attract hundreds of thousands of visitors to Kortrijk. As alderman for culture, I am convinced that we really have a bazooka here, one that will give our trade and hospitality industry new perspectives. It is the second edition of our triennial. Play, the first one, was a hit.
