Mia Zabelka & Alain Joule The Poetics of Sharing

“Mia Zabelka does not regard science and technology as invasive threats to the human race, but instead perceives an agency that can help us find our way to new modes of expression. Further, she is not given to dreaming about fantastic travels into outer space, but is an artist very much connected to the modern world, and attuned to the environment.”
Ed Pinsent/ The Wire Magazine (UK)

PHOTO_TONE

Mia Zabelka - violin, e-violin, voice, electronic devices, alien objects, noise, visuals

PHOTO_TONE is about the magic of a sonic journey into the world of subatomic interactions. Mia Zabelka explores the translation of chemical and structural processes into sounds and makes them perceptible in the audio field. Her sonic visions transport the listener into a fascinating technological world in which processes of modulation, elimination and the oscillation of elementary particles tell their own mysterious stories.
Beyond melodies, harmonies and rhythm, the aim is to make automatic processes audible. With her sound experiments, Mia Zabelka explores noise, movement, automation, division, symbiosis, dissonance and resonance. Mia Zabelka works with the interdisciplinarity between music and science. The term “scientific music” best describes her work. Scientific music is the code of the future because it allows us to envision more advanced life forms.

Mia Zabelka (AT) is an Austrian violinist and composer. Her live performances deal with the relationship between human beings, environment and sound. Her "automatic playing" expands the potential of her instruments to such an extent that the violin itself becomes an electronic sound generator in a sonic journey into the world of subatomic interactions. Mia Zabelka explores the translation of chemical and structural processes into sounds and makes them perceptible in the audio realm. Her sound visions take the listener into a fascinating technological world in which processes of modulation, extinction and the vibration of atoms tell their own mysterious stories. "The music of elementary particles contains the code of the future," says Mia Zabelka, "because it allows us to imagine advanced forms of life."
