Improvised concert for giant record player, double bass and many loudspeakers.
The macrograph is an oversized record player (scale: 2.77:1) on which records with a diameter of 33⅓ inches are played. The basic principle of the macrograph is the translation of three-dimensional structures on records into music. While a needle glides through a groove on a conventional record player to translate vibrations into audible sounds, a laser beam scans the surface of the record. The resulting digital data forms the source material for the composition. In this way, even non-musical topologies can be translated into fascinating musical results.
In the live concert, dieb13 plays the macrograph and processes sounds from additional turntables as well as the live music of his fellow musician Patrick Kessler on double bass. The final sounds will be reproduced via Kessler's "Chuchepati Loudspeaker Orchestra", a set of up to 32 funnel-shaped outdoor loudspeakers from the Himalayan region on bamboo stands.
