Momentum

Performance / Sound · 2023

Muta.Wari’s sound and Akad⁰’s movement unfolded through a live exchange of gestures and responses.

Momentum brought sound and movement into a changing conversation. Gestures and sonic responses continually reshaped the encounter, allowing a shared rhythm to develop through listening and negotiation.

Presented at Kultur Lounge, Leipzig, in October 2023, the performance paired Akad⁰ with my live set as Muta.Wari.
