Grischa Lichtenberger is a new artist on raster-noton. For
~treibgut album he recorded sounds from the world around him
like a sliding tabletop, the noise of a radiator or the humming
of a broken device. By means of digital manipulation these
sounds are transformed into sound-giving instruments.
äThe title ~treibgut refers to the German proverbial Treibholz,
describing a piece of wood floating in a river or the sea. In
this sense it expresses a relation to things: between the
observer and the floating thing, which has obliterated its
functionality, there is no immidiate connection û there is a
lack of unifying meaning. Of it, the observer always only sees
aspects, while the thing, without him on its mind, drifts by.
Within a secondary meaning -treibÆ gut- extends the German
proverbial phrase -machÆs gut- (farewell). The imperative form
-treibÆ gut- designates a forceful, inavoidable distance to an
other, who cannot be followed due to ones own spacial or
temporal finiteness.
In the light of such loss, which biographically manifests
itself as exile and isolation, the demand of an unconditional
relation to things is formulated û a demand for the possibility
of an approach to the immediate moments of a situation.ô
