Nuvolet – DER KLANG DES SÜDENS – Sons del Sud – L’Auditori 2010

An audio-visual instrument. Play a sound cloud with body gestures.

Specially developed for the concert of Sons del Sud, a collaboration between Barcelona Laptop Orchestra and Institut Goethe.

Three writers (Judith Kuckart for Barcelona, Nora Gomringer for Genoa and Juli Zeh for Lisbon) used soundscapes alone as starting point for their writings. They were then translated to Catalan, Italian and Portuguese and recorded by professional actors. Each Hörspiele is developed based on their voice and the city soundscape.

Sounds that came to Germany from the South, go back to the South again as text that morphs back to sound and music.
