Artisteista:
Composer, improviser, cellist, multi-instrumentalist, and music-theatre maker Wilson Tanner Smith (USA/FI) travels to Helsinki with an eclectic improvised set that spreads across genres of free improvisation and deep listening-inspired soundscapes, incorporating radios, toy keyboards, field recordings, acoustic and amplified cello, and whatever other odds and ends come up along the way.
Smith is currently based in Hamburg, DE, with longer-term roots in the improvised music scenes of Chicago before beginning itinerant travels in northern/central Europe in 2022. His work is rooted in a sense of Presence and Reflecting: plumbing the various influences that shape a given [place, gesture, meeting, moment], and/or mirroring the alienating, absurd, silly or senseless signals we receive from the world around us, in order to cultivate an awareness of the relationships we have with the people, systems, and structures we live with.
He has performed solo and in collaborations across dance, free improvisation/free jazz, and cross-disciplinary projects at established and DIY venues in the US, France, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, and Germany.
Smith is also a member of the Chicago-based improvising quartet Mad Myth Science, creating spontaneous compositions and rituals for an increasingly unstable world. Their debut album was released August 2023 by Infrequent Seams (NY) to acclaim from The Wire “Below the Radar,” Quietus, and Stereogum.
Heliä Mailiis Viirakivi on monipuolinen suomalainen muusikko, joka työskentelee nykymusiikin, kokeelliseen nykymusiikin, nykyimprovisaation sekä monitaiteellisien konseptien parissa. Hänen ainutlaatuinen taiteellinen äänensä yhdistää laajennetut tekniikat sekä folk ja gospelvaikutteet jonka klassinen laulutekniikka yhdistää kokonaisuudeksi.
