1989/ 1990

for
violoncello and tape
 
 

"Aisthanómenon" is a notion in the philosophy Plato's and means something like 'projection' of being which can be perceived by human beings. The interpretation of this notion and it's transformation into the musical sphere characterizes the basic ideas for the piece "Aisthanómenon".
While the course of laps the Violoncello becomes in its complexity closer to that one of the tape and dissociate itself from the sphere of the tape at the end of the piece. The macro form of the Tape is characterized in dense points at the beginning which becomes expanded and transforms into a space. After the solopart of the Violoncello the Tape describes the reverse way from the beginning.
