The historically formulated universalist, internationalist, and humanistic postulates during the communist period will be confronted with contemporary postcolonial reflection. It forces us to read the collections of African artifacts scattered around Europe as symbols of the white man's absolute cultural domination.

The title concept of white balance used in digital photography will be treated as a metaphor for the deconstruction of "balance" and "order" that the colonizers carried out for centuries on African cultures. Simultaneously, the way the photos are displayed and their specially prepared, colored lighting will directly relate to the white visual balance. It will show the ambiguity and discretion of what we used to interpret as white and non-white. It is hard to find a better context for such a project than the white interior landscape of the Philharmonic in Szczecin.
 

The title of the work refers to the lack of dialogue and a Polish saying, "everyone can talk" describes the content of an absurd vision of the future. We also see here present social conditions with dominant themes such as right-wing populism, climate change, and denial, the so-called "faith versus facts" mentality, and the resulting social divisions. Structurally, the work has been inspired by a musical work - an opera in two acts. Some of the photos were taken in an echo chamber - a special room whose walls almost entirely absorb sound waves.

The "Sounds against the voice" workshops introduce you to the arcane work of a sound artist who designs an audio setting for films, video games, theater, and radio. The workshops include listening exercises, sensitization to auditory perception, sound ecology elements, introduction to the basics of phonography, sound recording, sound walk, and field recording.

During the final concert on September 26th, young performers will present their composition. Young artists will perform their music experiments in the City Harmony Zone. Szczecin citizens will choose this place in a plebiscite.

"Divernire" - the composer's seventh studio album - is a coherent and exciting music, described by many as the best of the entire minimalist movement. Einaudi uses consecutive sounds and chords to build tension, emotion, climaxes, and at the same time, sophisticated passages, phrases, and compilations. Although the music flows continuously, construction and deconstruction simultaneously take place, sometimes depressing and sometimes hoping, as intended, and the message of the following pieces.

Ludovico Einaudi's works were inspired by the paintings of the 19th-century Swiss artist Giovanni Segantini, born and living in an Alpine valley, entitled "La vita", "La Natura" and "La Morte". The triptych shows the mountain scenery of Soglio, the twilight over the Schafberg peak, and the winter landscape on the Maloja Pass. The title composition "Divernire" had its premiere in the Dolomites, against the backdrop of the Pale di San Martino mountain range.

The final concert of MUSIC.DESIGN.FORM Festival 2020 will take us musically to the mountains, and thanks to the pictorial music performed by the Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra and pianist Zuzanna Całka, we will see Alpine landscapes painted with music.

Nie zabraknie historii Szczecinian związanych z muzyką – od zakonnic Cysterek, przez Carla Loewego, aż po współczesnych szczecińskich artystów. Dowiemy się również jak człowiek próbuje muzycznie komponować pejzaż miast. Przemek Głowa powie nam gdzie odpocząć od zgiełku miasta i które dźwięki są dla nas dobre.

Spacer zaczniemy o godzinie 16:00 na Syrenich Stawach – miejscu, które wygrało tegoroczny plebiscyt na Miejską Strefę Harmonii. Po drodze odwiedzimy Ekoport, Muzeum Techniki i Komunikacji, Rusałkę i Teatr Letni, a także kilka parków miejskich oraz miejsc związanych z muzyką. Spacer zakończy się pod budynkiem Filharmonii.

Wcześniej, o godzinie 15:00, w Miejskiej Strefie Harmonii na Syrenich stawach odbędzie się koncert inaugurujący jej działalność.

Uczestnicy spaceru zobowiązani będą do przestrzegania najnowszych zaleceń Głównego Inspektora Sanitarnego (w tym zakrycie ust i nosa, dezynfekcja rąk, zachowanie bezpiecznych odległości). Udział w spacerze jest bezpłatny.

During the concert as part of the MUSIC.DESIGN.FORM Festival, we will hear the premiere songs from the upcoming album. Nature-inspired songs, combined with compelling visuals, provide a unique experience of music and nature at the same time.

We learn to make music through movement and gesture. Basically, all musicians do it. However, we will neither sing nor play instruments. We will look for sounds in a different way. We will look for them by moving between objects placed on the floor. There are sounds hidden in each of these objects. We will find a way to free them. We will then be able to walk between them, triggering new and new sound events. It is not far from here to create a piece of music. We know how to stimulate sounds, so we need a score. A traditional score is a book with sheet music on each page. Maps will be the pages of our score. What maps? Such marking routes between objects on the floor telling us which way and how to get to the right sound. Sometimes the maps show us to walk carefully, slowly. Sometimes they ask you to accelerate and even run as fast as you can... Yes, yes, time does not wait in music either! Once we learn to read them, we will be ready for the conductor's first gesture. And when this one appears, we will perform the most authentic piece of music encoded in our notes-maps. And although without the instruments, we will become a real orchestra. A little rushing.

In 2019, Echo Collective presented a new fantastic project: the Jóhann Jóhannsson string quartet, "12 Conversations with Thilo Heinzmann". This tremendous work by Echo Collective was released by the cult record label Deutsche Grammophon in September 2019.

The composer, Jóhann Jóhannsson himself, was "obsessed with the texture of sound", regularly bending the boundaries between classical and electronic music. In his eclectic style, he created hypnotic, exceptionally sophisticated images. The beauty of the music contained in "12 Conversations" reveals what can be called the essence of its sound.

Jóhannsson's music is, therefore, a perfect fit for the Echo Collective, who create, interpret and show the world their work described as "post-classical", "neoclassical" or "non-classical". The correct etiquette does not matter much to Neil Leiter and Margaret Hermant - founders of the Echo Collective.
