There is no room for sloppy habits in space. They could be fatal. But then we are only human (apart from those non-humans, that is).

Things Began To Slide

Music to convey the challenges, determination, and successes of animal migration for survival.

/ˈmaɪ.ɡrə.tɔːr.i/ - Moving from one habitat to another on a seasonal basis

Migration, in ethology, the regular, usually seasonal, movement of all or part of an animal population to and from a given area. Familiar migrants include many birds; hoofed animals, especially in East Africa and in the Arctic tundra; bats; whales and porpoises; seals; and fishes, such as salmon.

Most migrations involve horizontal travel. The distance traversed may be a few miles or several thousands of miles. Some migrations take a vertical direction and involve no appreciable horizontal movement. Certain aquatic animals, for example, move from deep water to the surface according to the season. Certain birds, mammals, and insects migrate altitudinally in mountainous areas, going from the upper zones, where they breed, to the foothills or plains during seasons when the weather is severe and unfavourable. Such vertical travels involve essentially the same type of environmental change as horizontal, or latitudinal, migrations over long distances.

Building Up

Eine Komposition im Rahmen des Projekts "Gemeine Stadt" von der Berliner Landeszentrale für politische Bildung in Kooperation mit Sabrina Dittus & metroZones e.V.

Ausgangspunkt der Kompositionen von Martina Reiter sind Geräusche aus dem öffentlichen und privaten Raum, die mit intuitiven Improvisationen auf der Viola kombiniert werden. Angelehnt an die Technik der Musique Concrete, werden akustisch Momente aus der städtischen Umgebung und der Natur, Tiere und Maschinen herausgefiltert, erweitert und mit akustischen und elektronischen Instrumenten verwoben. Dabei entstehen Hörbilder und Klangerzählungen. So skizziert das vorliegende Stück VA-Gänse in A ein Narrativ der Unruhe.

Unruhe erzeugt unterschiedliche Bilder und Gefühle. Sie macht Angst und lässt die Sorge um den Zustand der Welt, die auch in Wut und Zorn umschlagen kann, wachsen. Sie hat etwas Beklemmendes - kann sich über das eigene und gesellschaftliche Sein legen und jegliche Zuversicht verscheuchen.

Aber da ist auch Unruhe, die wie ein Motor etwas in Bewegung bringt, die etwas Anregendes hat, die Aktivistisches in Gang setzen kann; Unruhe, die einem zum Handeln bewegt, was immerzu, aber besonders angesichts der globalen politischen Entwicklungen derzeit unabdingbar scheint.

(VA-Gänse in A ist als Loop gedacht und abspielbar. Zum Anhören der Komposition sind Kopfhörer besonders geeignet.)

Martina Reiter: VA-Gänse in A

For me, the image plays a primary role in the composition of a piece. The creative process that has the aim to translate what I see into what I hear is what interests me the most. I like to prepare from the beginning
the key moments and steps, on which I build the musical storytelling but without being too much “caged” into a rigid schemes. I always let a “window” open to new chances, to the “unexpected”. I like to put my pencil on the paper and see where it goes, which forms, lines and even drawing come out from that improvised moment.
The infinite possibilities of “telling” with sounds always push me to go further, to experiment always new possibilities, to try constantly to translate the untranslatable.
