Notwithstanding the art-wankery talk below, the visuals with this
show were sublime. The music runs from basic cold dark ambient
washes to more Aphex circa SAWII melodic bits toward the end.
Klimek presents "Ghetto Ambient"
In collaboration with Vague Terrain, the Music Gallery presents
Berlin-based artist Klimek (a.k.a. Sebastian Meissner), whose
brilliant 2007 recording of ambient electronica, Dedications, pays
tribute to everyone from Giacinto Scelsi to Marvin Gaye. Meisnner
will perform a new audio/visual program entitled Ghetto Ambient.
Biography
Sebastian Meissner works as a media artist using sound, video and
photography. Employing multiple artistic personas (Klimek,
Autokontrast, Autopoieses, Bizz Circuits, Open Source, Random
Industries), his works deal with and negotiate
urban/cultural/social scenarios, randomness, historical music
archives and strategies of networking. He works with computer
music sources, sampling and moving photography assembling their
interrelation within geographic/historical/political discourses.
Over the years his works have been widely presented at festivals
and by institutions such as Transmediale (DE), Sonar (ES), Mutek
(CAN), the EU Parliament and various Goethe Instituts around the
world. He worked for the Deleuze/Guattari-influenced media label
Mille Plateaux, and also established the network platform Intifada
Offspring that is looking for new perspectives on the Middle East
region. His work has been released by labels such as Mille
Plateaux, Kompakt, and Sub Rosa.
Ghetto Ambient
This new project by Sebastian Meissner explores urban and rural
environments, which - as defined by the French ethnologist Marc
AugΘ - are frequently described as non-places:
"if a place can be defined as relational, historical and concerned
with identity, then a space which cannot be defined as relational,
or historical, or concerned with identity will be a non-place"
Those are places in which identity, relations, and history are
only marginally significant and where social relations are
minimal. Familiar and recognisable aspects are minimized.
Classically defined through arbitrariness and repeatability of its
architecture, places such as freeways, airports, malls and
supermarkets make their visitors feel like they are always, and
never at home.
Ghetto Ambient is trying to immerse this definition of non-places
by focusing on ôplaces at the edge to the globalised world (SPEX)
and symbolised by details of every-day-life surroundings. This
project is raising questions about how home (and exile), identity
and (urban) spaces can be understood and defined today and how
those values are created and maintained.
Meissner uses his processed photographic material collected from
various geographic locations (see detailed listing below) to
dismantle it into fragments and to re-arrange it to a highly
dramatic fictional movie.
