Cheering for others makes you a leader (2016) for performer, cheerleader pom poms, sensors and live electronics. 
Pompons and cheers such as hurrah, yippie, yeah are the elements for this performance. With the help of sensors my gestures control the electronic processing of all the hurrah- sounds. The performance can also be understood as an investigation in what we cheer for nowadays and if we should applaud and cheer at all.

In Paradisum (2019) performance for apple, performer and live electronics There is not much to say about this performance: I simply try to find the perfect sound for eating an apple. Since the apple is evidently a fruit loaded with associations and cultural references, every bite might reveal a  limpse of the worlds beyond eating an Apple.

Song No. 3 (2010) for one performer, gestures, loudspeaker, microphone and live electronics
Song No. 3 is a performance during which I use arm gestures normally used by singers as a byproduct of their singing performance as a means to control electronic sound. I am not making any noises with my voice. Instead, the input volume of the microphone is controlling the sound processing done by the computer. This sound is then diffused through the loudspeaker (with a white paper glued on the membrane) in front of my mouth.

CATHY VAN ECK (Netherlands, 1979)
Cathy van Eck composes relationships between everyday objects, human performers, and sound. She is interested in setting her gestures into unusual, surprising or poetic relationships with sounds, mainly by electronic means. This could be called performative sound art, since it combines elements from performance art, electronic music, and visual art. She has a teaching position at the University of the Arts in Bern, Switzerland. Her book Between Air and Electricity – Microphones and Loudspeakers as Musical Instruments was published in 2017. She lives and works in Zurich.
