✨️EXP Artist Interview✨️
--> Led by Kathy Hamp
Ever wanted to conduct your own artist interview?
In this short beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn how to record conversations using a field recorder - right in the middle of the festival.
You'll develop questions during the concerts (and before) & conduct your own interview with an artist of your choice.
The recordings will later be edited into a collective audio feature, which you’ll receive - and with a bit of luck, it might be broadcast on Radio.
👥 Max. 10 participants
🕒 Short interviews (max. 5 minutes)
🎙️ No prior experience needed
🎧 Field recorders will be provided and can be borrowed during the festival
📓 Please bring a notebook to jot down ideas and questions during performances
🔎 It’s recommended to research the artists in advance
Pre-registration required: [email protected] <3

💥HBKSaar students of fine art and Media Art& Design Clara Hanzal and Phileas Fiorino work as an artist duo at the intersection of ceramics and sound.
➡️ For the EXPERIMANCE Festival, they developed the project "Bojen", which will be on view as a permanent sound installation in the "Sektor Heimat / Tunnel" section of the festival.
✨️Their work "Bojen" invites reflection on belonging, sensitivity, and interdependence. The sounds of the buoys blend with
the tones of handmade flutes to create a moving and intimate auditory experience.
⚠️ Did you know: Students get 50% off every ticket!
Die Bucht: @clara_hanzal_art & @ja_du_wees
Das @experimance Festival nächste Woche in Saarbrücken beweist seit Jahren, dass Sound Art über traditionelle Galerieräume hinausgeht. Die Veranstaltungsreihe der beiden Künstlerinnen, @die_bucht an der @hbksaar setzt diesen Gedanken fort und präsentiert alle zwei Wochen experimentelle Musik & Installationen – mit einer Mischung aus Ambient, Soundscapes und Early Electronic Music.
Bei VERSTÄRKER #4 gaben die Künstlerinnen Clara Hanzal und Phileas Fiorino einen Einblick in das, was die Besucher in der Bucht und bei ihrem Experimance Gig erwartet.

⚡️Nest Sound Walk⚡️
Five international artists present their sound works and compositions as part of the Nest Sound Walk at EXPERIMANCE festival 2026!
Installed in small birdhouses, the pieces invite visitors to explore and discover them at their own pace.
Moving through the space, audiences encounter a variety of sonic environment - sometimes subtle and hidden, sometimes present and unexpected.
⚡️Shan Lyu’s piece is based on a field recording of monks chanting in a Buddhist temple in central London. It reflects on the tension between inner contemplation and the surrounding urban environment, making audible sonic spaces that often remain unnoticed. @cslyu_
⚡️Marie Vermont & Evamaria Müller
With VRIES (2025), the artists create an abstract sonic dialogue between two imagined birds. Combining synthetic and organic sounds, the installation evokes a poetic, fragmented ecosystem unfolding in public space.
@marievermont666@gmorrk
⚡️In Alguém vem sonhar em mim, Davi Raubach explores the nature of dreaming. Inspired by philosophical reflections, the work creates a sonic space in which the self appears as something foreign, as if dreams were arriving from elsewhere. @daviraubach
⚡️Nik Bohnenberger imagines a future in which birdsong is artificially recreated. Using entirely synthetic sounds, his work reflects on a world where natural soundscapes are gradually disappearing. @nik.bohnenberger
