Wavering Worlds #20
The series „Wavering Worlds“ provides a platform for local and international artists and musicians who oscillate between musical and artistic genres. Within this framework various forms of multimedia concerts and performances are presented.
Eli Wallace is a pianist, improviser, and composer who resides in Brooklyn, NY, leading his own projects, collaborating with other like-minded artists, and co-curating the interdisciplinary performance series Invocation. His work as a pianist displays his vast milieu of experiences from classical, jazz, and free improvisation, incorporating elaborate piano preparations that John Lewis (The Guardian) says is „… pushing the boundaries of the prepared piano.“ His compositions employ notational strategies to broaden how musicians produce sound and the ways in which they interact. Over the past decade, he has appeared on dozens of albums and performed at esteemed venues such as The Stone, New York, NY, Roulette, Brooklyn, NY, Mizzou International Composers Festival, Columbia, MI, and Experimental Sound Studio, Chicago, IL.

IEOGM – Importers Exporters Of General Machandise – is an improvisational collaboration between Marie Vermont and the concept horse, founded in Vienna in 2022.
Marie Vermont (AT) combines electronic unprogrammable analog devices with tape, electroacoustics, cables and graphic scores in the context of improvisation. She wrote several scores dealing with the indeterminacy and translation of noises and birdsongs. She performs and records solo as well as in different formations.
the concept horse (US/AT) composes and releases music constructed from an array of physical sound sources that relies as much on repetition and slight change as it does on analog error, chance and unrepeatability. the concept horse runs the label eë editions and has released solo and collaborative sounds on FALT, Gracious Host and czaszka [rec.].
IEOGM co-organizes the concert series „knopfwissen“ in Vienna and are part of BILLA ENSEMBLE (Michiu, the concept horse, turmeric acid, Marie Vermont). IEOGM has released sounds on Beach Buddies Records, phncrs and molt fluid.
„We seek to grow our machandise by composing the import and export needs of noise makers, offering delectable cable salads and uncertain chromatic values in all that we do. Supported by a professional and motivated team of field recordings, state-of-the-art technologies and mallets, we guarantee you unstable and untrustworthy analog sounds in Vienna and beyond. importers exporters of general machandise: sonic integrity, extreme panning and knobknowledge.“
