fwd:inf [rec] consists of a collection of little stories: a walk down the Ramblas in Barcelona, a fridge in Berlin, a Chinese engineering student in Karlsruhe, air conditioning in a theater in Utrecht and how to skip sleep when necessary. Before my microphones broke, I never used to leave town without them. From the recordings that I made – i.e. in a crowded museum in The Hague, near beehives in the ruins of a burnt-down castle in Styria, of burning candles in a Greek Orthodox church in Riga or of the crickets during a long late-night walk from one village to another near the Pyrenees – I would make miniature pieces and sound objects, which I used as layers during solo sets.

When I was recently asked to contribute short audio works to an exhibition in Seoul, I rediscovered these miniatures. fwd:inf [rec] is the beginning of a larger collection of sound stories and audio works that are all connected to very specific memories.
