This piece was inspired by the contemporary social phenomenon of shitstorms, their significant impact and unstoppable, uncontrollable reach – a trigger, a click, another click, a chain reaction. It wasn’t merely the distoring content that had me interested, but also the explosive density of data, the fluctuation and the speed of information. Like water droplets gathering into a river, the information accumulates, increasingly developing into a swirling, destructive force. A movement, that takes on a life of its own, bursting from virtual reality into a real world. Ideal places for the point of no return are architectural spaces, that have big windows but are good acoustically isolated. They allow for the possibility of playing a role, an interface between two parallel realities, two parallel movements. The windows are screening the outside world, from which movement is visually forcing itself continuously into the perception of a beholder, who resides within a line of spatial and sonic demarcation and is experiencing audibly only the sound movement, the sound installation that is happening in the room. The composition is built out of sonic impulses, which multiply and breed themselves through a chaos, but try to find a path, a passage through the piece, in which they get a direction, become regulated, guided and dissolved into a river of sound, a drone until they get disconnected again...
