dear all
I had been meaning to announce a small outdoor installation/performance
project I am doing, "BirdSongTree- Drawings", at the KunstTreffpunkt
Festival in Darmstadt, 1-3 September , 8 - 10 September,  but I mention it
here tonight, in case you are interest in land/art or environmental art
that may have a digital component, as in this case where I am using about
25 bird calls/voices to be heard for the people who come to see the tree
and want to want paint/draw the voice onto the canvases.

 I posted a few images and a video on my facebookpage.

and the concept, in brief, is:

*BirdsongTree Drawings – Listening Performance *is a site-specific
installation and interactive performance space – situated in the Darmstadt
Organgerie gardens, where a decaying tree will be revitalized with 6
smaller paintings of bird-song spectrograms that will be attached to its
stems or remaining branches, and at the same time the tree will asked to
collaborate on a performance invitation, a participatory scenography for
visitors –  where each visitor who is inclined to add a drawing of an
imagined bird song or song frequency, will be invited to a drawing
performance. The drawing performance involves the participating visitors as
actors who can use their bodies and hands to draw an imaginary spectrogram,
of whatever visual expression, on a large, extended canvas (paper roll)
that will extend from the tree outward in a circular or spiraling form.


best wishes

Johannes Birringer
