About:
REFLECTIONS presents Italian composer Caterina Barbieri in a night of spellbinding sonic intensity at this historic former church. She’s joined by opener KMRU on a consciousness-altering ambient set, with immersive visuals by Berlin-based designer MFO.
CATERINA BARBIERI uses vivid modular synthesis to explore how sound can induce both metaphysical and psycho-physical responses in the listener.
Her full-length debut album Patterns of Consciousness (Important Records, 2017) was namedone of the best releases of the year and the decade (Resident Advisor, Noisey, Fact Mag, The Wire). Her 2019 release on Editions Mego, Ecstatic Computation, has been critically acclaimed and is record of the year on Bleep.
Barbieri holds a Master's degree in classical guitar and a Bachelor’s degree in electroacoustic composition from the Conservatory of Bologna, Italy, alongside a Bachelor’s degree from the Faculty of Humanities and Philosophy of Bologna with a thesis in Ethnomusicology about Hindustani music and minimalism.
KMRU is Nairobi-born, Berlin-based sound artist Joseph Kamaru. For him, sound is a sensorial medium through which social, material and conceptual interpretations are manifested in his works. KMRU carries with him a repository of listening experiences from Nairobi and beyond expanding his sonic practices, bringing an awareness of surroundings through creative compositions, installations and performances.
He has earned international acclaim from his performances at the Barbican, Berlin Atonal, Présences électronique, and releases on Editions Mego, Subtext, Seil Records. KMRU has carved out a serious and definitive space on the list of essential authors in ambient experimental music – one of the most prolific and innovative artists in his field.
