In the organizer's words:

19:30 CORIN "Resonance"
20:30 Sote "Sound Design In Far Sea"

In collaboration with Berlin's Forecast platform, CTM festival presents a spatial concert that will feature pillar of Iran's music community Sote and rising talent CORIN, who were paired in 2025 through Forecast's mentorship program.

Sote will premiere "Sound Design In Far Sea", a live exploration departing from the confines of structure. Transformed echoes of Persian instruments and field recordings from Iran dissolve into shimmering layers of synthesis, microscopic sonic detail and tactile density shaping a landscape where memory turns liquid and history drifts through circuitry. Performed in an immersive surround format using the d&b Soundscape system, the piece submerges its audience in a sea of disorientation and awe, a shifting zone where resonance and abstraction entwine like light refracted underwater.

Developed through the Forecast Mentorship program, CORIN's performance emerges under the artistic mentorship of Sote. Haunted by future folklore, her work converges into a portal built from speculative fiction, ancestral memory, and hyperdigital production: ambient drift, warped polyrhythms, and long hikes through the uncanny valley. Her performance "Resonance" creates harmonic and rhythmic systems within non-Western musical ecologies by sampling the kulintang, a Filipino precolonial gong chime instrument: alternate futures tethered to ancestral memory.
