MaerzMusik 2026

Solo concert with a century-old pipe organ prepared robotically to sound turbulent formations.


“Organism destabilizes the socio-historical tonality of a century-old organ to liberate its turbulent materiality, robotically unleashing timbres unheard after centuries of sonic repression. In concerts, Organism’s shifting metastable states allow for its energetic thresholds to fall into and out of compatibility with one another. Navab aerodynamically shapes the resulting ecology of interdependent timbres into emergent realms, traversing microsonic polyrhythms, post-rock overspill and swampy soundscapes.” – Navid Navab
