Artist Highlight: Here, a nut falls twice - drift(in)circles (All-Night Mimer Performance)
'Here, a nut falls twice' is a sonic-sculptural installation that hosts a series of unfolding performance happenings. Like a living organism, it morphs and transforms — each iteration becoming a different being.
For Norbergfestival's 'Drift(in)circles', it will take shape as an overnight performance held within this ‘here’ space. Together, we attune to sound, darkness, and gravity’s pull, entering a shared dreamscape. In this space of falling—of vulnerability between bodies—dreams guide us in hearing one another into being.
'Here' grows out of Yen Chun Lin’s (
@yensouffle.zip ) ongoing artistic research into sound-dust, sensory thresholds, syn-sleeping listening, and encounters with spirit(s).
For this overnight performance, she invites a series of collaborators—
