PAF 2015: LARS TCF HOLDHUS (NO) and his 40 FC 4A 83 F9 BD A8 30 3F F2 33 C3 0B 5E 34 50 04 9C D9 4C 93 59 BE 6D 2E 36 D6 B3 9A D7 34 39

The Berlin-based Norwegian artist and musician Lars TCF Holdhus will perform a quadrophonic “composition” for a baroque chapel. Jonatán Pastirčák describes Holdhus’ work as “unpredictably flowing ambient soundscapes that meet abstract rhythmic structures, so as to create impressive sonic landscapes full of surprising moments and sound accidents.” The randomness of Holdhus’ music comes out of his fascination in encryption and computer algorithms – the name of every track is a sequence of numbers and letters, same as the name of the performance prepared for PAF itself. It is of no use to divide the piece Aedrhlsomrs Othryutupt Lauecehrofn into visual and musical projects, since they are very tightly connected, they develop on similar motifs and the only difference is the presentation media, similar to the anagram of the name. The performance takes place as the part of Animation beyond animation section at 14th PAF--Festival of Film Animation and Cotemporary Art in Olomouc, Czech Republic. http://www.pifpaf.cz/en/ Animation as the unifying principle of our experience within our perception of the moving image will be analysed through contemporary art, experimental film and undercurrents of cinematography. The programme offers presentations, screenings and a number of extraordinary performances on the boundary between live spatial animation, concert and 3D installation. A significant guest of the section is Malawi-born artist and filmmaker Samson Kambalu, who participated in the Venice Biennial 2015. Other guests within the section: Samson Kambalu (MW/UK), Lotic (US), Pedro Maia (PT), Takashi Makino (JP), Greg Pope (UK), Michal Pustějovský (CZ), TCF (NO), Vessel (UK) ad.
