Marie Vermont live

Clunks, hums, thunks and other noises coming from different small boxes, fed with electricity, Marie Vermont has been creating music both collaboratively and independently since 2007,
currently with projects like:

IEOGM w/the concept horse
BILLA ENSEMBLE (AT/RO/UK/US),
MICRO MATA w/RSMA
OUTER ALLMENDE AV, and others

Fragmentary field recordings and drawn translations of movement sequences for further examinations, as well as finished works (scores, recordings, settings and installations) emerge from stays and recordings in public, undesigned non-places. These artifacts from the outside world find their place alongside soundscapes created from various wired boxes combined with percussive elements, mics, tapes and other acoustic instruments in the broadest sense. Depending on the format, these simultaneities can be heard, seen, read and/or played - aspects such as wind and weather too. Duplication and reproduction mostly in the form of cassettes, with and without guest performers.

"My idea was to incorporate the 6 soundbikes into my setup by playing more delicate and high frequency sounds on them - I split these up individually. I thought of this metaphorically in a way, like birds in the sky moving around in a swarm while making noises. The specific architechtural possibilities of the spiral bridge and the soundbikes moving up and down, constantly shifting elevation in a way that is almost never possible in an indoor space, the movement, the open air and the dimensions gave the sounds a very special character. I like to work and interact with outdoor environments in many of my projects by playing and recording outside with a certain setup of microphones, but also by listening and transcribing simultaneous sound movements to later translate them into electronic and electroacoustic sounds in a studio."

ALLTAG DER UNAUSGESPROCHENEN DINGE
BEING WRONG WAS A WASTE IN ITSELF
AKUSTISCHES DIORAMA
schaukasten brigittaplatz
andrea habith, marie vermont
The opportunity of creating a self-contained world within our mundane neighbourhood led us to the idea of working with the Schaukasten as a platform for the Diorama Installation „Alltag der unausgesprochenen Dinge- Being wrong was a waste in itself“. The tonal instrumentation underlines the narrating voice and so forms an acoustic translation of the closed biosphere of the Glaskasten into the outside environment.

EINE AMPELSINFONIE
score
»Eine Ampelsinfonie« is a musical score in a book, which refers to four different physical positions in Vienna. Each place represents one part of the symphony. Sound recordings of these locations were analyzed and transcribed into a visual appearance. This visualization works as a graphic notation of an irregular, abstract component in our environment, the noise of the city. A crossroad turns into a concert, which can be attended using the score at a certain time. The symphony combines information, analysis and subjective impressions, a readable, musical experiment.

OUTER ALLMENDE AV
live concert with live AV at sonic territories/wow signale festival 2022, fabrik, seestadt aspern, vienna on 30.06.2022
Jacques Prell - live AV
RSMA - live elctronics, voice, drawing footage for AV
Marie Vermont - live electronics, drawing footage for AV
The concept of Allmende is about impressions of places that can be entered and enlivened simultaneously by several living beings without consumption. These fields have been recorded and performed by Marie Vermont with RSMA and Jacques Prell from time to time. Altogether a visual and acoustic concert was created from drawings of the commons, an aquarell allmende series by Marie Vermont, RSMA drawings and other alien material. Sound and imagery are based on fragments and field-recordings of public, undesigned non-places aswell as analog and digital electronic material and cablework. Irregular aspects such as wind and weather play a role. UFOs too. Intergalactic commons for all.
