(30)

Studio LOOS is the hot spot for new music in The Hague (NL). It is a workspace, laboratory and public presentation space for research, experimentation, development, innovation and the production of interdisciplinary electro acoustic music, sound and audio art, improvisation and composition, monomedia, bimedia, polymedia and hypermedia. It is also an environment where the LOOS Foundation provides a

rtists and groups in the field of interdisciplinary new music with a place to execute research, somewhere they can apply for a residence rehearse, experiment and present their latest works to the public. At Studio LOOS artists curate concert series with performances, lectures and presentations with a choice of local and international artists and researchers. It functions as a meeting place where artists and specialists from different generations, countries, nationalities and disciplines exchange ideas, experiences, skills and knowledge and meet the general public. Studio LOOS as a physical space was founded in 2005 as part of the LOOS Foundation. LOOS was set up in 1982 under the leadership of composer/improviser/interpreter/multi-instrumentalist Peter J.A. van Bergen, who is still the director of the foundation. The activities of LOOS are very difficult to place in a specific category or genre. LOOS represents a musical idiom, a musical vision and a relationship between music and society. Additionally, one of the most important characteristics of LOOS is its function in generating music (and music-related material) both as experience and experiment in form and content. Since the late 1980's, LOOS has initiated, generated and developed an extensive and impressive repertoire of contemporary music. By incorporating modern technology (live electronics, computers and different media) into the specific musical aesthetics that LOOS stands for and through the close collaboration with composers, improvisers, actors, choreographers and visual artists, LOOS has developed into one of the most prominent international artistic avant-garde platforms of today. Essential for LOOS are originality, authenticity, progressiveness, a high standard in performance and ideas and an adventurous and experimenting mentality and attitude. In 1985 LOOS was awarded with the Ooyevaer Prize of the City of The Hague and in 2000, with the prestigious GeNeCoPrize 2000 (Dutch Composers Prize) for " exceptional merits in Contemporary Music of The Netherlands".

Join us for Sewing Grounds, an artistic research presentation by Viktoria Nikolova together with Julie Hasfjord , Phoebe Kirrage and cellist Leah Plave.
This interdisciplinary performance transforms a sewing machine into an electro-acoustic instrument, capturing and translating folklore music from Scandinavia, Bulgaria, and England. As we sew a fabric map infused with sound, we will reflect on the experiences of displacement shaped by war and environmental disasters.

The presentation will take place on September 27th at 19:30, at Studio Loos (De Constant Rebecqueplein 20B) in The Hague.

We invite you to explore the intimate connections between memory, migration, and culture through history and sound. Experience how the threads of our past weave into the fabric of our present to begin something new.

Thanks to Studio Loos, for facilitating and hosting this residency.

The third edition of intersect.SERIES, curated by Farzaneh Nouri, will take place on the 14th of June at Studio Loos!

Time: 8:30PM, 14 June, 2024
Location: Studio LOOS
Price: 8 euros

🔴"A Very Personal Relationship Between Sound and Movement" by Nursinem Aslan
In the context of exploring new affordances in musical interaction, movement practice can contribute to developing a more nuanced and intentional use of bodily movement in musical expression. By increasing body awareness and control, movement practice can provide musicians with a wider range of movement vocabulary to draw from and can help to reveal new connections between movement and musical expression.

🔵 "Beyond" by Khamoosh collective

The members of the Khamoosh community gather together in one of their weekly meetings with the purpose of improvising together in each one's place. As we reflect on the role of improvisation also in our collective work and how we organize together, things we do overlap through their temporalities even when we are across different geographies.

🟣 "duwisnomahlmon" by jvkr
Three levels of sound projection creates a potential of juxtapositions, opening up a variety of perspectives. Whatever it was you heard, it was your ears only. That is normal.

🟡 “The city between absorbing seas and ricocheting mountains” by l°°p
l°°p is a newly formed ensemble dedicated to music based on systemic principles, thus context dependent and integrating feedback loops for the unfolding of the piece during the performance.

A moment from last Sunday - a concert-collab with Discreet Editions: Lucie Nezri & Clara de Asís at Studio LOOS!

Lucie Nezri is a composer, artist, and performer born in Hyères (FR) and currently based in Den Haag (NL).
Nezri is drawn toward abstraction and simplicity. Her work bridges different contexts and disciplines pertaining to musical composition, tuning theory, musicology, computer science, and, at times, choreography. Her pieces combine algorithmic techniques of composition based on probabilities, and a care for harmony. She is especially interested in exploring/making different versions of her pieces and in reconstructing algorithmic pieces made by others, as a means to understand and view these works from multiple angles. Last but not least, she considers music primarily as an experience to be shared and composes her pieces as invitations to 'play' and dedicated to loved ones.

Clara de Asís (b. 1988, Spain) is a composer and artist who explores the nexus of acoustics, spatiality and auditory perception in the field of electronic and contemporary experimental music, using sound as a vehicle to investigate wider socio-cultural constructs. She incorporates sound synthesis to idiosyncratic combinations of diverse materials, found objects and traditional instrumentation. Her compositions juxtapose structural precision to areas of indeterminacy, drawing from an interest in tuning, timbral research and the junction of rational and intuitive systems. As a curator and artistic director, she works independently and within international music organizations, and runs the publishing platform Discreet Editions.

🔴 "Through Darkness I Sing” by Saba Alizadeh
An electro-acoustic performance, using found sounds of a demonstration in the southern part of Iran & processed Kamancheh.

Born and based in Tehran, Saba Alizadeh is an unparalleled figure at the forefront of contemporary Iranian music. Saba is deeply rooted in Iranian classical music and a virtuoso on Kamancheh, but at the same time, he is curious about the notion of tradition, which is the reason that makes him a multi-talented, forward-thinking composer/performer. Saba also uses a lot of manipulated historical audio recordings and field recordings in a musique concrete fashion. Treating sound as an object has always been Alizadeh’s fascination. Saba's musical career branches into two different paths.

🟡 “Orchestra of Resonance” by Klyl Shifroni
"Orchestra of Resonance” is a live performed sound installation, beckoning the listener to become a part of the experience. The performed installation deals with the materiality of sound by spatializing sounding objects in space. In the installation, ordinary objects are repurposed to ‘play themselves’ by resonating and feedbacking their harmonic content to reverberate through their bodies. The multi-component system serves as a platform for improvisation as a tool for discovering. Guiding the piece is a live exploration of the system's resonances. In addition, sensors that track the listener's position monitor the space between the instruments and transfer the audience movement into sonic data allowing the listeners to interact in real-time with sound components, shaping the piece's evolution and contributing to the unfolding narrative.

🟣 Martin Hurych & Wilf Amis DUO
Martin Hurych (he/him) (CZ/NL) and Wilf Amis (they/them) (UK/NL) are a duo of live electronic improvisers working out of The Hague. They process each other in an infinitely recursive loop, a little like when you have a mirror in front of and behind you. Together they tend to spend their time bathing in a swamp of arrhythmia until they find themselves suddenly coalescing into pulse.

🔴performed by Lucie Nezri:
'ida for amy' (2017) by Michael Winter (Dutch premiere)
'en abyme' (2015) by Melaine Dalibert (Dutch premiere)
🟣performed by Lucie Nezri and Clara de Asís:
'for siblings (tempered)' (2023), composed by Lucie Nezri with Clara de Asís on the guitar and Lucie on the piano.
🟡performed by Clara de Asís:
‘Pillar of Salt' (2023) (Dutch premiere)

Tickets: 12 euros (10 euros for students)
For more info and tickets: https://www.loosdenhaag.com/agenda/lucie-nezri-clara-de-asis-discreet-editions

'for siblings (tempered)' is the first outcome of a long-term ongoing research revolving around Maghrebin-Andalusian classical music, specifically from Morocco and Algeria where my father's family is from. My initial wish for this research was to loosely integrate tuning systems, modes, as well as melodic and rhythmic patterns of Maghrebin-Andalusian music into my own practice, which is already grounded in rational tuning, algorithmic/probabilistic methods of composition, and open-form scores. My standpoint stems from a deeply personal yet rootless and rather abstract perspective. As a result, and necessarily, the piece 'for siblings (tempered)' ended up being distant from its original source of inspiration.

'Pillar of Salt' is a composition for idiophones, bells and electronics. From an audible account on ambiguity, it explores the potentiality of microtonal intervals, spectral blending and timbral affinity to articulate different levels of synergy, reciprocity and confusion between acoustic and electronic material in the physical and the psychoacoustic space. The structure of the piece unfolds from a simple pattern up to accidental states with different levels of contingency. It juxtaposes compositional precision to systemic randomness.

TONIGHT, the first edition of INTERSECT. series kicks off at Studio Loos ‼🥳

Time: 8:30PM @ 19th of April, 2024
Location: Studio LOOS
Price: 8 euros

🔴 Gobi_10k (Alec Gordon)

Gobi_10k (Alec Gordon) is a Scottish musician and instrument inventor working in the Hague. His work deals with oversaturation as a method to explore atemporality. This performance will expound on the limits of machine learning synthesis, using material gathered through web scraping and web 2.0-inspired piracy.

Gobi_10k (Alec Gordon) currently lives and works in Den Haag, Netherlands. Gobi_10k’s work is concerned primarily with noise in a variety of “saturated” states, driving noise through numerous cycles of feedback, often using frequencies that occupy the entire range of human hearing.

Other performances include:
🟡 "Kinesis" by Arash Akbari
🟣 “Between air, folds & voltage” – Kristin Norderval & Kaat Vanhaverbeke - a first performance with the support of Studio LOOS

🟣 “Between air, folds & voltage” – Kristin Norderval & Kaat Vanhaverbeke - a first performance with the support of Studio LOOS

> Kristin Norderval, voice & live electronics
> Kaat Vanhaverbeke, accordion & live electronics

“Between air, folds & voltage” explores sound and movement in the framework of free improvisation involving voice, accordion, and real-time audio processing with gestural controllers. Both performers are using Genki WAVE MIDI rings as controllers to highlight and integrate gestural movements into their musical practice. Acoustic interactions with the space and the qualities of spatial extension are a central focus. As two performers 40+ years apart in age and from different countries (US/BE), Norderval and Vanhaverbeke investigate the aesthetic possibilities that can emerge from collaborations between composer-performers from different generations, nationalities, and musical training, using different modes of real-time signal processing.

🔵 Wirwarp by Görkem Arıkan
Görkem Arıkan will play the Wirwarp, commissioned by Sonic Acts for the Touched by Sound project, designed and built in collaboration with Joris Takken, Lucas Vonk, Rahsaan Bleijs, and Roman Willems.
Drawing inspiration from Michel Waisvisz’s distinctive approach to sonic interactions and musical expression, Wirwarp incorporates conductive rubber cord stretch sensors. These sensors create a dynamic mesh on a wooden frame, providing a touch canvas for sonic exploration through the manipulation of tension dynamics. Playing the instrument involves warping and tangling the mesh – pulling the cords, pushing the nodes, and adjusting the frame’s angle with movable hinges.

An interdisciplinary sound artist and performer, Görkem Arıkan is a music technologist at SoundLAB in Amsterdam and the co-founder of the non-profit experimental music formation A.I.D.

Price: 8 euros

🟡 Kinesis by Arash Akbari
Kinesis is a digital sonic environment that explores the relationship between sound, space, performer, and computation. A group of AI agents were trained using reinforcement learning to create generative spatial sound objects that react to human presence using their unpredictable behaviors. The result is an ever-changing digital audio-visual structure that transforms the space in an unrepeatable manner. The listeners/performers become active by walking and positioning themselves among the objects and indirectly navigating the composition. The agents constantly react to the performer's actions. These reactions affect the sonic features such as frequency pitch, duration, and amplitude. While the system interacts with the virtual plane of continuous differentiation of its components, every subjective experience becomes a part of the system by encountering it through sense-making.

Full of energy and enthusiasm, the international Ensemble Modelo62, based in the Netherlands, breaks a lance for contemporary music at Studio LOOS this Sunday at 3PM! In “Stubborn resurgences” we will enjoy to a palette of sounds that will range from precisely notated music to graphic scores, from traditional instruments to newly invented instruments, from fragmented pieces to closed works. All of these elements will form a kaleidoscope that portrays four of the more original voices from each country, inviting the listener to a sonic journey that will condense the uniqueness and diversity of their music. “Kid Baltan” (2013) by Allison Cameron “Modular Corsair: Unknown Undertow” (2021) by Aart Strootman “Death and the rest” (2021) by Roxanne Nesbitt “Modules for Modelo62” (2019-2021) by Wilbert Bulsink On our website: https://www.loosdenhaag.com/agenda/stubborn-resurgences-by-ensemble-modelo62 #modelo62 #ensemblemodelo #music #performance #studioloos #denhaag #experimental #instrument
