The INTERSTRING SOUND LIBRARY is an incomplete collection of extended guitar sounds. It is an ongoing project of documenting the sonic possibilities of all kinds of (plucked) string instruments, both for us to use in our own music and for other guitarists, composers or music enthusiasts to get inspired.

If you want to use the sounds for your own project, to add something to the library from yourself or to suggest an idea for a collaboration including the Sound Library, feel free to contact us.

Thanks to Matthias Arbter, Andreas Brand, Prof. Michael R. Hampel, David Heieck, Chaehong Lim, György Michelberger, Alexander Ptitsyn, Martin Schäfer, Kaspar Stoll and Nadia Wild.

Performed by The Interstring Project (DE) at Crossroads - International New Music Festival Salzburg 2019.
"While I was interested in an astrophysical phenomena of a Wormhole, a speculative structure which
could connect different regions of space and time, the following idea occurred: often our thoughts
get trapped into wormholes and we are not anymore here, in a given moment. We travel to the
future or the past inside our minds, and those wormholes bring us either to our memories or future
dreams - thus the wormholes connect different moments of life.
Musically, the idea is expressed by a time-warp of rhythmical structures."
