Next
to gambling, Las Vegas primarily brought electricity and light into the
darkness of the Nevadan desert. Together with German composer Christina Kubisch
the sound artists Peter Kutin and Florian Kindlinger have made audible what
usually stays unrecognized for our ears : the electromagnetic fields related to
the neon-signs, light emissons and LED thunderstorms. By using extensions for
our limited senses, Kutin/Kindlinger deliver a film built on different but
existing sites of our urban reality. It is a symphony of electric smog that
resounds, while the light seems to have flowed out of the images and is
sometimes only visible as abstract spots and lines, pulsating & pumping. An
compositional precise arrangement of 'Strombilder'- images of alternating
current.
