Head Resonance
Voice noise - Voice sounds - Voice music
Vocal sounds: Peter Elsner, Benjamin Heidersberger and since 2001 Stefanie Kohlhoff.
HEAD RESONANCE is an experimental vocalsound project which was
established 1979 from Peter Elsner and Benjamin Heidersberger as a part
of an interdisciplinary art and research project called HEAD RESONANCE
Company.
All composition and productions of HEAD RESONANCE are done in
improvisation sessions and mixed later together in the studio. For most
of the improvisation recordings they used a triaxial stereo microphone
(Kunstkopf), therefor all productions are mixed for headphones.
Following the main question of HEAD RESONANCE:
What is repetition in a time process, what is transformation in a time
process and how does the human consiousness react to repetition and
transformation?
HEAD RESONANCE is using a delay machine which gives the possibility
to create floating rhytmic structur and transformation during the
improvisation.
