Enno Poppe: im wald (Installation)

In the organizer's words:

No, Enno Poppe has not broken with his pronounced penchant for catchy one-word titles. The audiovisual installation "im wald" is no exception, as Poppe is not the sole author of this work; rather, the project is the result of a collaboration between the composer and WARPED TYPE, the Düsseldorf visual arts collective led by Andreas Huck and Roland Nebe. Poppe's composition "Wald" is the starting point for the collaboration, in which the piece is not only extended in its title, but also supplemented by a visual dimension.

In terms of composition, concepts that Poppe had already used years earlier in "Herz" and "Tier" are continued here. The perspective has gradually expanded from the individual organ to the organism and its habitat. The individual tone has lost its contour, it is set in motion, melts into a stream of string glissandi and is merely a transitional stage without defined coordinates in time and space. Reflecting the fluid acoustic events in the moving image seems to be a logical step.
