Sounding Here meets Eat Your Feelings
Rotterdam series Sounding Here and Eat Your Feelings will share the stage at WORM to connect through the worlds of food and music in a playful way. The guest artists work with Alina (Eat Your Feelings) and Christine (Sounding Here) to be inspired by sound, space, and senses. Between live music and recorded audio from past Sounding Here events (ghosts and resonances), and together we ask: what does this noise taste like?
Line-up (in different constellations) + special guests
Nina Hitz is a cellist who still enjoys the analog touch of a wooden box. For now, at least. In another life—or perhaps simply when she’s old enough—she’d like to become an electronic sound artist, a painter, an actor, or a singer. None of these things she is particularly capable of at the moment, which might be exactly the point.
Luke Deane (also known on-stage as ‘Lisa’) is a composer, educator and project leader with a passion for co-composing and interdisciplinary working methods. Luke’s background is in experimental music, and his body of work reflects this constant transformation and curiosity. He discovered his own non-binary nature through his composing process, and despite having no formal singing lessons, is considered a unique vocalist working at a professional level.
Lukas Simonis is one of the founders of WORM, Rotterdam. He organises and produces radio, concerts, cd’s, performing projects and writing, sometimes as KLANGENDUM, a foundation that promotes soundart and radio-art, sometimes under the WORM-umbrella, sometimes in cooperation with others (oa. The Radia Network, Poetry International, Soundtrackcity, Vrooom, etc.) He started out as an ‘unconventional’ rock musician, playing in bands like Trespassers W and Dull Schicksal. In later years he turned more and more to electronic, improvised music and sound art, although he still has a weak spot for his version of rock, and he is playing with people like Nina Hitz, Ergo Phizmiz, Pierre Bastien, GW Sok, Henk Bakker, Jim Whelton, Lucinda Guy, GJ Prins and the Bohman Brothers. Other groups and projects include Coolhaven (electro performance trash), Stepmother, Vril (songs), Static Tics (electronics) and Kruk (improv perfo).
Christine Cornwell is a facilitator and musicker who loves to bring together different people to make noise, play, and create as collectively as possible. Facilitating around and between sticky subjects like accessibility, inclusion, experimental music, gender, social engagement, she is always up to something with beings who are busy being their creative selves. Current Rotterdam-grown adventures are with darkwave e-violin (Baby Gargoyle), songwriting freak-folk (Triangulation) and dark ambient improv (Ruben Kotkamp+Lucija Gregov), with occasional forays into spoken word/hip-hop as improviser (Unorthodox/Eva van Manen and as artist-in-residence at Theater Babel.
