The Centro de Creación Contemporánea de Andalucía (C3A), dependent on the Consejería de Cultura y Deporte de la Junta de Andalucía, presents the performance of Belgian filmmaker and sound artist Guy-Marc Hinant in charge of the sound program ‘Remixing the Beyond. The Sub Rosa Anthologies’. For this occasion, Hinant combines different sources and devices to generate an immersive auditory experience, which is part of the first season of the program ‘Exploratorio’, ‘Meditations on the Foreign’, curated by Bruno Dozza and Miguel Álvarez-Fernández, with the aim of bringing innovative proposals in the field of sound and performative creation to the public. The event will take place on Saturday, March 8 at 8:00 p.m. in the Caja Negra of the C3A, with free entry until full capacity.
The ‘Exploratorio’, the live arts cycle of the C3A, welcomes the work of creator Guy-Marc Hinant, a sound piece in three parts that will be articulated from multiple sound sources, among which the use of three turntables stands out. Hinant will reproduce and remix fragments from the different anthologies edited by the Sub Rosa label and will extract sound elements from some of the hidden records that make up his immense collection. In addition to these sound materials, sounds based on drones, Spanish electronic music, spectral voices, hypnotic rhythmic patterns, among others, will be added.
The musical event ‘Remixing the Beyond. The Sub Rosa Anthologies’ is part of the cycle ‘Meditations on the Foreign’, which gives its name to the first season of the ‘Exploratorio’ of the C3A, curated by Dozza and Álvarez-Fernández. The ‘Exploratorio’ proposes a space for research and presentation of innovative forms of artistic expression that cover sound and scenic art, with the aim of ‘transcending borders from the privileged perspective of Southern Europe,’ in the words of its curators. The program has the collaboration of the Rafael Orozco Superior Music Conservatory in Córdoba.
