world design capital 2012

Between the arcades of their dreamful picturesque and bizarre stirring soundscapes, the musicians stroll around in free and interactive play, which sometimes is vibrating like a spiritual meeting. The music lives on antipodes but always strives for harmony. Talking trees come to life in blank forests, a gentle maidens melody disenchants in a piercing shriek. Art Zentral play jazz, wander through the engrossed terrain of avant-garde, to come back to their strange world full of experiments after a joyride on the waves of punkrock. 
(…) these compositions erode almost shamanic bittersweet distillate of surrealistic jazz and chalk fretted art-rock attitudes, which became sprinkled with a supersized pipette from the exotic perfume of an antifolk-girlgenius…ignoring any saints of the genre, six cheerful music-alchemists defy flattering arrangements and don´t shy away from tightening up light-footed compositions with avangardistic field tests like rattling chattels..."

Art Zentral

Liquid is a dance and music performance group focussed on re-imagining the relationship between dancers and musicians on stage. The focus of the group is towards emphasizing the musicality of movement and the spatiality of music.

Biografie:
Liquid cultivate a collection of pieces, each of them with a specific identity, yet every time open to free improvisation. The ‘experience’ of each piece originates from the improvisational process, rather than from predefined compositional forms, making it so that they are new on every execution yet always recognisable as the same piece
Liquid is Giorgio Convertito, Moritz Cartheuser, Libero Mureddu and Terhi Vaimala.
