Halfeyed Revenge no 2, by Agnes Kofoed Christianson is a performative piece for solo cello in constant movement performed by cellist My Hellgren. Through psychological, instrumental and physical interaction it investigates musical violence as a tool for the alternative. The process of revenge, inflicting a variety of energy, where the work investigates the point of transformation of the human scatteredness and acoustic fragility.
The composer Agnes Kofoed Christianson´s practice and interest in performative music has worked challenging concepts of acoustic music and created works with choreographic scores and collaborations. Here, the cello has been the core for physicality.

My Hellgren lives in Göteborg and works as a cellist in many different contexts. She is mostly active in the scene of contemporary music and is a member of GAHLMM, Curious chamber players and Mimitabu.

Fiber, by Helena Persson is a sound essay on screen of her ongoing research of understanding the world, phenomenons and situations through sound and listening. In this artwork we take part of sound art pieces and live music that is intertwined by thoughts and reflections throughout the journey.

Helena Persson is a sound collector and sound composer, working mainly with field recordings. By focusing on the details, the deconstruction of an already existing sound environment becomes reconstructed into a new sonic and spatial scenery, where acoustic and visual esthetics go hand in hand. Fiber presents elements from the trees as well as the textile industry.
