Name: Stolen Breath by Helen Bledsoe Electro Stuff
Duration: 5 min 45 s
Description: If you are going to steal, steal from the best. An electronic improvisation on bass flute with the materials from Luigi Nono's Das Atmende Klarsein. Not as a tribute, because I do not follow his processes, nor try to imitate his sound or atmosphere. However, I try to express a heartfelt gratitude for his work over the course of five and a half minutes.

"Üben ist kontraproduktiv"

Ausgehend von Paul Bleys Diktum "Üben ist kontraproduktiv" befragt Carl Ludwig Hübsch in seiner ersten ONpodcast-Folge Kolleg*innen aus der Kölner Improvisationsszene zu ihrem Übeverhalten - Kann man Improvisation üben? Wieviel Pausen braucht das kreative Schaffen? Was übt man?

Im Mai gehört dem Tubisten, Improvisierer, Komponisten und Veranstalter Carl Ludwig Hübsch das Mikrophon. In seinen zwei Folgen geht er dem Lebens- und Arbeitsstil in der Kölner Musikszene nach und fragt: "Was heißt hier Bohème?"

Der ONpodcast bietet jeden Monat eine neue Perspektive aus der Freien Szene in Köln. Worum es geht und wer zu Wort kommt, liegt in den Händen der Moderatorin oder des Moderators: in zwei Folgen geben sie Einblicke in das Leben und Schaffen der experimentellen Musikszene und lassen mit Gesprächen, Geschichten oder Musik daran teilhaben.

ONpodcast #45 Was Heißt Hier ... Mit Carl Ludwig Hübsch (und Gästen)

Method: Sometimes it's easy getting some pedals in a row .... dealing with the outcome, though, is quite a different issue.
Narration: This is an older poem that wanted to get out and breathe some fresh air.
Illustration: This is an actual item from the days when I still created large-scale poemscapes for the visual senses. 

poem / copyright jo richter:

their young tend to vanish
just like the old ones used to
for the lure of the other
and the bait of the same

Nobody's Fault But My Own

Geier, Krähe und das Vorspiel zum Dissens
for Violin
Sara Cubarsi, Violin

All efforts led to the negation of consensus.
The violin tells a story: the vulture and the crow.
There was no need to rush.
They feel the scalpel and know in which direction the bow will move.
