Drift Choir, Human Connection in a Polyphony of Place @ Kultur am Dorfplatz # 1Mai

Opening Victoria Keddie´s new site specific project “Drift Choir, Human Connection in a Polyphony of Place” including an artist talk/conversation between Victoria, artist Mike Hentz (Van Gogh TV a.o) , as well as Dr. Cornelia Lund (fluctuating images), as part of the exhibition opening.

The project “Drift Choir, Human Connection in a Polyphony of Place” is a transmission-based system that explores human connection beyond conventional communication models in collaboration with artists, researchers & further locations / initiatives spread across the globe.

Victoria Keddie is a NYC based multidisciplinary artist working with sound, video, installation and performance. Her work uncovers hidden narratives in ordinary artefacts and spaces, emphasising their role in shaping our collective history. Keddie’s projects are characterised by linking the disclosure and decoding of technological infrastructures (e.g. radio and television broadcasts) with storytelling to enable different narratives of media, their apparatuses and conditions that expand a unified history of technology. The examination of acoustic phenomena and language is a recurring theme in her artistic work. Keddie’s current projects explore the acoustic complexity of language and dialects. Victoria Keddie is co-director of E.S.P. TV, a durational live broadcasting project exploring the medium of television for performance, video and sound. >> more about her sounds at https://victoriakeddie.bandcamp.com/album/apsides and https://raster-media.net/artist/victoria-keddie/
