Resonant Embrace 2022 short

This is the short version of a documentary video showing parts of a ritualistic sound performance and installation called "Resonant Embrace" by Alexandru Salariu. It happend in November 2022 in the Edel Extra in Nuremberg. It was originally 45 minutes long. In this ritualistic performance sound is moved spatialy in all directions via a selfbuilt, sculptural and installative sound system called the "spatial axis activation cube" (SAAC). With this cube Alexandru Salariu moves the sound around and splashes it against the walls of the architecture where it reflects and renders the specific acoustics of the space listenable. It is a play between the SAAC, the room and the body. Taking the resonant frequencies of the space to transform the architecture to a giant instrument adds another layer. Many sounds are derived directly from the architecture and let the bodies of the listeners plunge into a field of vibrations emitted by the whole surrounding. Mathis Hauter and Simone Körner filmed the performance. Simone Körner (smon.koerner) designed the trousers for this costume. Vera Marie Deubner did the makeup. Johanna Brunner did the hair. andru.salariu https://ndru.eu
