Funny old year 2018....
I actually got pulled out of retirement for 3 x bookings (all of whom kindly flew me from the bottom of the globe, in my then home Cape Town, to said locations!). Turned out to be quite fun, but f**ked if that meant playing any 'breakbore'.... 
This is pretty much what was in my bag and what I played on the nights.

The Oakland night @ Brix 581 was filmed and is also availabe on YouTube with visuals by Sansculottes:

Darkmatter, USA / 5lowershop, USA / Saturnalia Festival, It | Mix | 2018

Composition made for the Venice Biennale of Architecture 2023, together with an interview for Radio Utopia, News from the world (French Pavilion).
The insect vibrational signals we can hear were recorded in different parts of Slovenia during the summers of 2020-2023 and show a fraction of the rich diversity of sounds that emanate from different meadow vibroscapes.

Interview was published in the special issue of " L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui"

Slovenian vibroscapes (Venice Biennale 2023)

These insect substrate-borne vibrations were recorded with laser doppler vibrometers from local plants in a wet meadow located in Gais, Switzerland. Laser vibrometers are able to detect the vibrational signals emitted by insects that travel through the surface of the plants in the meadow. Only two local insects could be identified by the signals they produced, and those were Aphropora major (a froghopper) and Sorhoanus assimilis (a leafhopper). Over 20 different insect signals were documented during the field study. Although their identity can not be revealed yet, we hypothesise that many of these signals belong to the Auchenorryncha suborder of insects, specialised in vibrational communication. The signals, emanating from the vibrational interactions within the local vibroscape, were extracted from 150 hours of recorded material collected over the course of August 8, 9, and 10, 2023. The research of vibroscapes in nature is rather recent and this was the first time that an alpine meadow was recorded.

In collaboration with @tremoneta (Juan José López Díez, National Institute of Biology, Slovenia)

The whole set is comprised of outtakes, sketches, demos and unused ideas from last years Golem album on SVBKVLT, as well as her upcoming release Anthropods, which will be premiered at Unsound 2019 in Kraków.

Unsound Podcast 54: 33EMYBW - "Trash Set #1"

sound as communication in direct and primal form, a tool of metaphysics, a conscience and a consciousness, unrestrained language, vibration. sound as a means to activate primordial shared emotions otherwise hidden under the debris of civilisation. works that oppose the omnipresent restriction and reduction of life and living. inviting rumination, encouraging intervention, endorsing catharsis & environmental e/quality, touching sentience, cleansing. dp re/searches and ponders existences and behaviourisms via audio de/construction, psycho-acoustics and sound rituals. sonic activism, ritual protest music, humanimalism.

solo works since 1987. 
part of SCHIMPFLUCH-GRUPPE (with Rudolf Eb.er, Joke Lanz, Marc Zeier, Daniel Löwenbrück etc.) since 1991.

projects present and past include OHNE, dead peni, perverts in white shirts, PK, ketsu no ana, fear of god & more;  collaborations with G*Park, Francisco Meirino, Randy Yau, Hiroshi Hasegawa, GX Jupitter-Larsen, Chris Galarreta, Masonna & more; ScHimpfluch Associates label with Rudolf Eb.er etc blablabla
