Mermaid's cradle

for basset recorder and fixed electronics. „Mermaid’s cradle“ brings assotiations to the water, mythology, motherhood, falling asleep, regular swinging motion and death (water children). The composition reflects on most of those associations. According to the Ukrainian mythology, Rusalkas (mermaids) are considered to be drowned, children who have died unchristened, and all people who have died on Midsummer Eve. According to popular beliefs, on Mermaid Day, when the harvest is in full bloom, the mermaids leave the water and walk through the fields and woods.

Cassandra

-> transmedia series “Cassandra” is a transmedia project - a series of works, which could be combined differently into an experience or performed separately. Each work illuminates a certain aspect of the main topic - the prophesying ability of Cassandra as a marketing solution (without her consent). The complexity of the topic and richness of the references allow the creation of many artworks within the same project. The series is also covering themes like the consequences of Cassandra’s prophecies, language loss, Cassandra’s syndrome (self-doubt), and post-truth.

Timbral approximations

for 3 automatic pianos and computer music performer. In this composition I’m exploring the possibilities of timbral transcriptions, which, when performed by a human or by certain software, add a unique bias to the sound result. performed during the Workshopkonzert: Ensemble Mécanique @ Salzkammergut festival in Bad Ischl

Echo & N.N.

composition for cello, double-bass as an interactive object, conductive threads, electronics and dance performance for the LakT Ensemble (Anna Grenzner -cello, Teresa Doblinger - movement) „Echo & N.N.“ explores the topics of unreality and contemporary narcissism - a VR-specific phenomenon of mirror dwellers. The body ownership illusion has recently become a part of experience using social VR platforms (for ex., VRChat). Associating an anonymised self with virtual avatars, one is undergoing the process of embodiment while wearing the VR glasses.

Ghost cities

a cycle for piano/e-piano and portable electronics. Amplitude (A). Amplitude (E) (for acoustic piano and electronics; for e-piano and electronics) From the cycle „Ghost cities“. Inspired by the Bartok’s Microcosmos, the idea is to create a cycle for pianists, which will allow the performer to explore different electronic effects, different ways of interaction and the concept of correctly functioning and failing. Each small idea for the miniature will get a 2 realisations : on acoustic grand piano and digital piano, keeping the same algorithms for sound processing.
