KISS2014 -- dávny—bygone: Franz Danksagmüller
Inspired by the works and ideas of John Cage and pictures and videos by urban exploration. Instead of preparing instruments I was looking for desolate, so called unplayable instruments, recorded their sounds and improvised on them.
These organically grown sounds are being processed and combined to a soundtrack for a documentary about decay. We recorded not only sounds but also filmed deserted industrial buildings, churches and other buildings and interviewed old people about their past, the past of the respective district and their traditions.
