reWind

with Paulo Raposo and João Silva (2011, audio-video)
After the 2008 piece "Book of Hours", published by Touch in 2010, this trio returns not to explore fisical space, but the space of reproduction represented by mgnetic tape. On top of a single video shot projection where stripped down VHS magnetic tapes oscilate to the wind, the trio erases K7's recorded by themselves in the 80's.
"Mix tapes mark the moment of consumer culture in which listeners attained control over what they heard, what order and at what cost." Matias Viegener
