Composition
The Devil's Kitchen is a Gesamtkunstwerk (total work of art) in which sound and text come together as equals. Fragmentation and polarization (our core themes) shape both the form and the content of the work.
|
In The Devil's Kitchen, music becomes language and language becomes music. Conceived as a spoken opera, the work is located at the intersection of techno and musique concrète.
Hence in The Devil's Kitchen we work mainly with ‚found‘ (pre-existing) sound, noise and text objects, which we link, combine and/or merge in the form of monologues, dialogues and polylogues on three levels: the world of thought (inner struggle); the dialogical plane; and the outside world, the world of the many (outer struggle).
