Between Strings
Between Strings is an interdisciplinary installation working with sound, space and movement. The installation consists of 7 taut strings, stretched over the course of 5 to 10 meters combined with contact microphones, acoustic resonance chambers and lights.
As a large-scale string instrument, the strings resonate through touch as the players or visitors move along the cords. Working with different layers of amplification - such as the acoustic resonance chambers and a quadraphonic electronic speaker-setup - the installation expands the sonic dimensions into a varied, spatial experience, sounding differently depending on the position in the room.
Through performances, artist talks, accompanying workshops and daily guided hours, the quartet Between Feathers based in Austria and the Danish composer Kirstine Lindemann, in collaboration with mumok, invites the audience to join the exploration of the installation Between Strings. The premiere of Lindemann's 50-minute composition String Theory will be hosted by mumok as part of the exhibition on October 9, 2024.
