Paulo Raposo (music) + Francisco Janes (video)
Jacob Kirkegaard: Aion

i set up an intimate room inside an ecletic evening at Casa da música  
to present two audiovisual
performances featuring two site-specific based works. Aion aims to  
unfold four abandoned spaces
inside the Zone of Exclusion in Chernobyl, Ukraine. It deals with a  
sonic and visual experience
of time, absence, and change - in an area haunted by an invisible and  
inaudible danger, amidst
the slowly decaying remains of human civilization. My collaboration  
with Francisco Janes
investigates the space of an abandoned rice factory near the river  
Tagus, 30 km from Lisbon, and
deals with the mesmerizing ruins of an industrial splendour from  
which only remains intriguing
metal organs, empty rooms haunted with inscriptions and suspended  
artifacts deprived and forgotten
of their original function. ah, soon to be demolished.

Out now on Sirr:

Janek Schaefer ::: Alone at Last :::: CD sirr0031

Alone at last' is a studio album, written over the first decade of  
Janek's career as a composer, sound artist, and musician. Each piece  
is a response to an invitation. The source sounds are produced using  
location recordings and manipulated vinyl, which are simply processed  
through his collection of foot pedals & mixing desk, and then  
assembled on screen. Anamnesis - refers to the ability of sound to  
trigger mental images in our minds eye. Each new image is unique to  
each of us - and they are all uniquely framed within the evocative  
music.
The CD is housed in an elegant 100% black jewelcase with an 8 page  
black & white booklet of Janek's photography.
