A post-Fluxus action after Nam June Paik
Pork belly for everyone? In this shamanic post-Fluxus performance, the trio Brauer/Kim/Waki takes up Nam June Paik's Piano for All Senses (1963) and poses the question of how to prepare pianos so that the piano dimension can be proclaimed in the midst of a perspectiveless present.
Suspense! How many infiltration tunnels in this system have not yet been discovered? Count the waves of the Spree. At what foreskin size does the Young Penis Symphony begin? Count the waves of the Spree. Why are you, as a shaman, not allowed to look at the test image for longer than 3 seconds? Anyone who can prove they have been injected with Korean Botox in the last 24 hours or is exactly 100 days old receives free entry. Count the feet at the toe. Suspense!
Nam June Paik (1932-2006), the inventor of video art, was initially a composer and was sent to Germany by his parents to avoid becoming a communist in North Korea. His early surviving musical scores are largely unknown and form the basis of this post-Fluxus project.
Dongkyu Leo Kim discovers the unknown piano music of Nam June Paik's teacher, Sun-nam Kim, and fuses K-pop, Schoenberg, Stockhausen, and traditional Korean music in his improvisations. Brauer explores the question of whether Nam June Paik's principle of spectral piano sound splitting is still applicable, and Yoshiko Waki animates a grand piano to channel Shigeko Kubota.
Be prepared and repeat after IT: HACK! This call is the beginning of a different form of etudes. Is it still worthwhile to distinguish between the spheres, or should the distinction between the analog finger world and the virtual world of spheres be abandoned? Paik Nam June whispers: “I make technology ridiculous!”
