Composer and sound artist Leo Hofmann creates unconventional, intimate listening situations and presents "Bias Dialogs", a performance in which cushions whisper, walls sing and sound waves play hide-and-seek. In "Bias Dialogs", a fictitious conversation between a performer and a virtual voice assistant develops into a polyphony of speaking and singing voices. Between fluffy latex cushions, filigree swan-neck microphones and delicate sound waves, between touches and movements, the relationships between the actors are constantly changing. In a structure of echoes, imitation and repetition, the performance revolves around themes such as memory, tactility, strangeness and familiarity, tracing resonances of space, time, animate and inanimate objects.

Video Credits: Felix Hergert, Ramón Königshausen Le compositeur et artiste sonore Leo Hofmann crée des situations d'écoute non conventionnelles et intimes et présente avec Bias Dialogs une performance dans laquelle des coussins chuchotent, des murs chantent et des ondes sonores jouent à cache-cache. Dans Bias Dialogs une polyphonie de voix parlantes et chantantes se développe à partir d'une conversation fictive entre le performeur et un assistant vocal virtuel. Entre coussins moelleux en latex, microphones filigranes à col de cygne et ondes sonores délicates, entre contacts et mouvements, les relations des acteurs se transforment continuellement. Dans une structure faite d'échos, d'imitations et de répétitions, la performance tourne autour de thèmes tels que la mémoire, la tactilité, l'étrangeté et la familiarité, et traque ainsi les résonances de l'espace, du temps, des choses animées et inanimées.
