Das Frosch/Vogel Lied
Les Trucs
Performance
2017
For Why Patterns? Les Trucs developed a new composition performed only at the opening. The performance, entitled Das Frosch/Vogel Lied (2017), was based on a child-like poem by Nis Momme Stockmann describing an absurd friendship between a bird and a frog. For the live performance of Das Frosch/Vogel Lied Les Trucs gathered together a 'choir of technical diversity' to be installed within the 'floor-score' for the composition: a super-8 camera (robot), midi grid loops, a drum, a synthesizer, a keyboard, and voice amplifying backpacks. Traces of the floor score – in the form of bird seed – remain in the space as the only remnants of this performance.
