Composition for four musicians/performers, cell phones or mobile live electronics, sounds, voice, and portable loudspeakers. Waves is based on the tradition of instrumental theater and performance art. Cell phones with a live electronics app and portable speakers are musical instruments. Waves plays with the questions of what an instrument is in today's electronic and digital music and what the role of the musician can be in playing with mobile devices. At the same time, Waves is a piece about digital communication, data and numbers that are sent through the air and landscapes as waves or frequencies. During the performance, sounds and noises are fed in via the cell phone microphone, processed and played back via the loudspeaker. The built-in compass reacts as a sensor to the movement of the performers in the terrain and influences musical parameters. Spoken texts and numbers are inspired by plot names and numbers from the map of the festival site. The composition consists of seven parts: call, radio, map, feedback, sing, waves and fly.
