Vrooom skipped June but is back in full (d)ef(f)ect at Klooster Oude Noorden this month. On the program: the Rotterdam premiere of a brand new piece by Andy Moor (THE EX) and Yannis Kyriakides, a solo set by Lucie Nezri, and a duo set by Elvis Homan and Stefan Lievestro. An evening of celestial turkeys, sonological exploration, the soundtracking of dream texts, and more.
┆YANNIS KYRIAKIDES & ANDY MOOR┆int'l┆– Sleep Talk
Sleep Talk is a new project by Yannis Kyriakides and Andy Moor (The Ex). Using dreams as source material, an algorithm generates sound based on the texts that are fed into it. The sounds originate from a three-day recording session in Venice during the Biennale, at the French Pavilion in October 2018. In concert Andy and Yannis add their performance and improvisation skills to create an intense, full soundtrack to the dream texts which are projected on a screen. The recorded voices of Scottish composer Genevieve Murphy and Italian comtemporary dancer Valentina Campora are added in English and Italian, retelling the dream and adding another layer to the this rich dense world of sound, words and image.

Lucie Nezri is a composer, performer, and DJ from France, currently studying at the Institute of Sonology. in her eclectic artistic practice, Nezri is drawn towards the use of probabilities, deviations and subjectivism. The more she carries on her explorations, the more she feels the need to get back to words and play with language as a compositional starting point.
