3X3: JAN ADRIAANS – SWARMING CHANTS III
The evening will build on ideas that Adriaans explored in his installation Swarming Chants, which is based on sound recordings of various football fans from across Europe. The work explores how their chants spontaneously erupt during football matches and become a collective singing voice. Adriaans exposes the power of this collective voice by turning its swarm dynamics and affective impact into a unique sonic experience, which also evokes the peculiar vocal power of operatic choirs.
