Radio Wonderland & Hans Tammen
As RADIO WONDERLAND, Joshua Fried mangles the corporate audio stream in the form of live FM radio, choosing algorithms on the fly and directly controlling the live DSP using electrified shoes and a steering wheel. HANS TAMMEN currently plays an analog modular synthesizer built around chaotic behaviors, where small changes in the settings may yield widely diverging sonic and rhythmic changes, forcing the player to constantly rethink and rearrange music. In this multichannel work, the players juxtapose their relentless polyrhythmic machinations coming from a single speaker situated in the middle of the audience against dark, sometimes brooding soundscapes from the outer limits of the room.
Fried and Tammen are known for turning technology on its head, challenging its assumptions, while using machines to accentuate the raw human qualities of live events that are unique to the moment. Their work partake equally of minimalism and polyrhythmic experimentation, as well as contemporary performance art, dance rhythm and sophisticated spatialization techniques.
