Damn the correction poem with Mar Fu Qi & Weiyan Low and Anamaria Bagarić & Karmen Ponikvar

Damn the correction poem is an event series that focuses on the boundaries and interpolation of sound, technology, and the body as the main elements and mediums. This interdisciplinary experiment aims to bring together humans and machines in an improvised dialogue of sound and form, investigating the intersection of their distinct understandings, responses, relating and differences. It also serves as a platform for cross-cultural exchange, showcasing diverse artistic approaches by bringing artists from different cultural backgrounds. *Curated by katarina kadijević and Shawn Wong who met during their studies at the Institute of Sonology. *

Anamaria Bagarić (dance) & Karmen Ponikvar (sound) will present their project The World Tethers
The World Tethers is a contemporary dance and live music performance by Anamaria
Bagarić, in collaboration with sound artist Karmen Ponikvar. Informed by butoh, it is a physical manifestation of the ongoing flow of thoughts and the body’s response to the world around it. With the back as its central focus, movement and sound interact to give physical form to an inner monologue. Anamaria Bagarić (1991) is an author, choreographer, and dancer in the contemporary dance field. Karmen Ponikvar (1994) is a Slovenian sound artist working at the intersection of electronic and electroacoustic music.

Mar Fu Qi (dance) & Weiyan Low (sound) will share their collaborative Grounds
Grounds merges two narratives of displacement and belonging through experimental sound
and dance performed by interdisciplinary duo Mar Fu Qi and Weiyan Low. We follow Mar’s
reflections of her journey wandering through Shaoguan, China; the birthplace she never got to truly know as she grew up in The Netherlands. Weiyan uses Feedback as an anthropic vehicle for transition and estrangement, constructing a world of oscillating soundscapes and birdsong around Mar’s field recordings. With no-input mixing, effects, and percussion, he crafts a narrative of a bird extracted from the forest making sense of its alien surroundings, its song distorts, warps as it searches for kin. Mar Fu Qi is a dancer, photographer, and performance artist. Born in Guangdong, China, and raised in the Netherlands. Weiyan Low is a visual anthropologist and sound artist based in Den Haag

The third act will be improvisation from all artists of the night and Shawn Wong who will join them with his sound presence.
