CHRISTIAN M. FISCHER
Kaleidoscuo (2022)

The title derives from the Greek word “kaleidoscope” and means: to hear beautiful shapes. The material consists of various binaural recordings, which are arranged in time, according to the structure of a kaleidoscope with its axial reflections. The three axes in the visual correspond in the auditory to the content or the tags of the files; in this case water, urbanity and movement (in terms of content, e.g. cars and through a moving microphone). The soundscape recordings are taken out of my audio diary and were made in the summer of 2011, in Germany, Estonia and Egypt. The diary is a kind of database consisting of audio files of various recordings.

Adhan (2015)

The performances of my piece for carillon and electronics are planned for the two days of Pentecost, that is an originally Jewish festival (Shavuot), which, according to the Bible, was just celebrated by the apostles when the Holy Spirit entered them and enabled them to speak in all the languages that were represented in Jerusalem at that time. The feast of Pentecost for me it is a counter-image of Babel: the understanding between different cultures. Starting from the performance situation charged by religious contexts, Three religions symbolically in one gesture: on an originally Jewish festival day, the Adhan – the call to prayer of a muezzin – sounds from a tower, doubled by bells.
