The duo of Marion Wörle and Maciej Śledziecki focuses on electro-acoustic and machine-built performances, sharpening a critique of mechanisation, digitality, and the human in between. The project is conceived around the construction of pre-modern instruments and the control of these instruments by recent technologies, resulting in an aesthetic that bridges the very old and the very new. Some of their century-spanning hybrid creations include a motorised electromagnetic plucked banjo, an automated physharmonica, an electromagnetic monochord, and an automated carillon.
Their public events and curated formats reflect a hybrid agenda, with concert series like Aggregate featuring automated organs in churches and halls, music theatre that uses machines as both instruments and scenographic elements, and a record output that archives machine-made sound as composition.
