- Description
- My Bachelor Project developed on the same theme of my thesis: water, sound and movement. These three elements are connected one to the other. I made a video that is trying to express how the body is affected by water, how water is producing mystical natural sounds and how movement is creating a sound itself through breathing. Water moving is like a dancing body: the beginning of my video shows how the water vibrations are similar to the muscles waves. As sound track I decided to put the orginal recording of water falls, lake and river, my breathing and a piece from the duo “Hang Massive". These lasts are playing hang drum which is reminding me a lot the sound of water drops falling into a endless universe. The aim of my video was to put in practise what I discovered with my researches for the BA thesis. With a deeper knowledge of the subject I was able to have more possibilities in the body and imagination. Water has memory and is able to record the vibrations of the surroundings. With my dance I tried to radiate positive feelings to the water and all the landscape, so that my dance could treat them. The video is filmed in Rivaz on the Leman Lake. The courtmetrage is developed aside of river, waterfall and lake. Three different ways of water express itself. My movement research started diving my body in water, understanding which kind of resistence water was giving to the muscles. Further on I reproduced it outside of water, swimming and floating in the air. In the video I also decided to Play with the different energies: the river with its currents is a metaphor for life evolving, never being the same (river water is never exactly the same ); the lake folds are representing the smooth movement of life; the water fall is the practical explanation for the following quotation “Ce qui conte c’est pas la chute c’est l’atterrissage” (what matters is the landing not the falling). Being water, being energy, becoming just a vibrating body in the middle of the universe, this is the main idea behind my research.
“Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” by Bruce Lee

- Creative Strategies for Reimagining Sonic Worlds
- Author

- Description
- This thesis analyses and investigates possible strategies in designing sound for a science fiction film. I have studied various sonic approaches from the likes of Delia Derbyshire and Walter Murch, whose innovative methods have provided an invaluable reference for applying a similar ethic to sound on the film Planet Hora, practical examples of which I will outline in greater detail. The context of my research has its basis in the complex and continuous process of listening and reciprocity, that which is shaped by circumstance or a sonic landscape that expands and extends beyond merely the functional aspects of sound design. This creates an evolving multiplicity of possible worlds, temporal spaces and unexpected occurrences from which I can speculate, extract, reconstruct and articulate a coherent and creative sonic vision. I will highlight practical compositional and sound design examples from Planet Hora. I will also discuss more subjective modes of creation in my own personal practice and how this relates to sonic interpretation and aesthetical choices. The central motivation of this research is two-fold, to propose a non-linear paradigm for thinking about sound in film and to advocate for a more intersectional methodology in sound creation.

- Description
- For a long time, the women in art existed only as a model or as a muse. She existed only as a painting or as a sculpture. She was only a body, a shell and the inspiration for the man to help his creative drive. At the same time, the gender relations were so engraved, that the woman as an artist did not exist.
This reduction to the body, was what I played with in the process of my project. But not only the woman in the role of a muse accompanied me as an inspiration. Also the detachment from the sole existence as a contentless body and the way to the self-realisation as an artist was part of my movement research.

- What are our needs?
What do we want?
What are we feeling, thinking, and seeing?
Where are we and what is around us?
In my project I want to show that we need love, warmth, and devotion. Love, warmth, and devotion from each other as well as from the
environment, from the nature, but most important from ourself. My goal was to let everything melt together to one creation with a
meaning.
The meaning of human affection.

- Description
- My Bachelor Project is a short film called “Behind the curtain.” It’s mostly about the daily life of a ZHdK contemporary dance student. The second years of the Bachelor program were very kind to share their personal stories. You also see them in rehearsals, ballet training and improvisation. My intension for this project was for the audience to see the process and hard work of a dancer. Not only watching the performance on stage but also getting to know the dancers on a more personal level.

- Description
- Das Wind Tunnel Bulletin wird vom Forschungsschwerpunkt Transdisziplinarität (fsp-t) produziert und herausgegeben, um Materialien aus der eigenen Forschung zu teilen. Die Publikation ist an der Grundlage ausgerichtet, dass Forschungsergebnisse für alle verfügbar sein sollen und dass das im Falle der Kunst bedeuten kann, dass andere Künstler_innen mit den zur Verfügung gestellten Materialien neue Werke schaffen.
Es handelt sich um eine in fortlaufenden Nummern erscheinende hybride Publikation, die online frei zugänglich ist (in einer Web-Version und als PDF-Download), aber auch als Printpublikation über den fsp-t sowie über ausgewählte Buchhandlungen bestellt werden kann.
Die Web-Version setzt die in die Publikation integrierten Bildtafeln dynamisch ein, d.h. sie bewegen sich beim Scrollen durch die Seiten mit und schaffen so neue Bezüge zwischen den Inhalten (Text und Bild).

- Description
- Das Forschungsprojekt Computersignale II konkretisiert Fragen aus der Perspektive der Kunst: Wie kann die materielle Verfasstheit digitaler Datenarbeit erfasst und dargestellt werden? Wie lässt sich die formative Beteiligung digitaler Geräte und ihrer Infrastrukturen an der Gewinnung von Erkenntnis in die menschliche Wahrnehmung verschieben und erlebbar machen? Wie kann das Verhältnis zwischen Ermöglichung und Begrenzung des Erkenntnisgewinns durch technische und materielle Bedingungen in künstlerischen Arbeiten verhandelt und in Diskussion gebracht werden?
Die digitale Publikation "Computersignale" umfasst ein Transkript eines Forschungsgesprächs (Rigi-Gespräch), das Fragen rund um die Arbeit mit Daten thematisiert, sowie eine Datensammlung.
Das Gespräch wurde am 1. und 2. September 2016 auf der Rigi-Kulm aufgezeichnet. Beteiligt waren die Philosophin Gabriele Gramelsberger, die Biologen Philipp Fischer und Hans Hofmann, der Wissenschaftshistoriker und Biologe Hans-Jörg Rheinberger, der Wissenschaftsforscher Christoph Hoffmann und der Künstler Hannes Rickli.
Das Gespräch ist in vier Kapitel unterteilt: Daten, Software, Infrastruktur und In silico. Sie enthalten Medienbeiträge und andere Verweise, die im Lesetext ausgezeichnet sind. Zusätzlich erlaubt die Funktion «Gliederung» eine durch Medien und Stichworte strukturierte Navigation.
Die Datensammlung enthält Editionen von Audio- und Videodaten, die mit elektromagnetischen Sensoren, Kontaktmikrofonen und Kameras in einer Langzeitstudie seit 2012 in den Messgeräten und Infrastrukturen der zwei beteiligten Laboratorien in Austin, Texas und vor Helgoland sowie vor Spitzbergen aufzeichnet wurden. In der Perspektive der Geräte «hört» und «sieht» das Projekt den digitalen Arbeitsprozessen «zu». Die gleichzeitig aufgenommenen wissenschaftlichen Bilder und Livestreams vorhandener Webcams stellen die zeitliche Dynamik der Forschungen im Kontext ihrer physischen Umwelt dar. Die Skalierung umfasst sowohl mehrjährige kontinuierliche Aufnahmen wie auch Darstellungen ephemerer Ereignisse des Forschungsalltags.

Between Stillness and Movement

- Description
- Ever since I was a little girl I loved dresses and costumes. The two reasons for that was the ability to make the movement visible in space and on the other hand the transformation of your own movement adjusting to the quality of the fabric. I was intrigued by the idea that even if something is still, like in a picture, we can still see the movement in it. To bring the movement to live I wanted to work with different fabrics and dresses. While at the same time, the fabric would inspirate our movement.
The beauty about fabric, is that it gives you the ability to see air and how it is moved. As once a choreographer said “Dance is moving air”. And not only does it make the movement visible in space, it also enlargers the movement. It becomes an extension of the body. And when the movement of the dancer is finished, the fabric acts like a little time machine, continuing the movement for a second longer, reminding us of the movement, before it becomes part of a memory.
On the other hand, fabric inspires us to move in certain ways. Depending on the quality and even colour it can inspire different kinds of movement. Like a little girl who starts twirling when she wears a wide skirt, so do we in dance.

- Description
- In "crossover frequency" three dancers work on making an invisible reality visible. The project focusses on dealing with space, time and the connection between people. With the help of a game manual the audience can connect with their own reflections. Hopefulle a new space opens up to do so. The aim of the work is to give the spectators the opportunity to tie with their own threads of experience from memory and awaken a different perception of the fact that things are not only as they seem to be, but that they carry a lot of hidden information within.

- In "Trading Identities", der dritten Zollfreilager-Spezialausgabe im kritischen Dialog mit dem Theater Spektakel, werfen Beobachter*innen und Autor*innen Lichter auf die Frage, wie Identität als vermeintliche Normalität gemacht wird – und damit auf sich selber. Niemand ist unsichtbar, niemand ist neutral. Zollfreilager wird, dieser Erkenntnis folgend, am Theater Spektakel mit dem mobil-installativen "Hochsitz" zum ersten Mal vor Ort sichtbar. Dazu kommen Essays, Interviews, Illustrationen, die das Thema vertiefen und erweitern.
