Audio Kayak - Silba, maj 2024
Ideja projekta je pogled na glasbeno improvizacijo, kot na turo dveh veslačev, ki igrata na svoja inštrumenta bolj ali manj na tradicionalen način, pri čemer je mogoče njune signale pretvoriti tudi v elektroniko; pri tem ima elektronika predvsem vlogo zvočnih blokov. Vsi trije zvočni veslači se morajo na zvočni turi soočiti z vizualizacijo poti dveh veslačev. Skupaj s sliko veslajo v kopeli zvočne pokrajine.
Projekt je nastal na otoku Silba, kjer je bil tudi posnet video material. Posnetek je nastal na koncertu skupine Audio Kayak 3. maja 2024 v Paviljonu Aleksandra S. Jarca.
Paviljon Aleksandra S. Jarca (1958 - 2020) je reinterpretacija Jakopičevega paviljona v parku Tivoli v Ljubljani, ki je bil porušen leta 1962 zaradi gradnje železniške proge.
Zgrajen je bil konec 80-ih na otoku Silba z mnogo originalnih funkcijskih in estetskih rešitev, neodvisnih od tedanjih zametkov urbanizacije. Služil je kot razstavni atelje in obenem bivališče umetnika. Njegov avtor, Aleksander S. Jarc ga je uporabljal do leta 2013, delno ohranjen pa še danes občasno služi za umetniške dogodke.
Paviljon in umetnik sta prikazana na dveh videih na naslednjih povezavah:

The idea of the project is to look at musical improvisation as a tour of two rowers playing their instruments more or less in a traditional way, with their signals also being able to be converted into electronics; electronics play the role of sound blocks. All three sound rowers have to face the visualization of the path of two rowers on the sound tour. Together with the picture they paddle in the bath of the soundscape.
The project was created on the island of Silba, where the video material was filmed. The video was recorded at the Audio Kayak concert on 3 May 2024 at the Aleksandar S. Jarc Pavilion.
The Aleksandar S. Jarc Pavilion is a reinterpretation of the Jakopič Pavilion in Ljubljana's Tivoli Park, which was demolished in 1962 for the construction of the railway line. It was built at the end of the 1980s on the island of Silba with many original functional and aesthetic solutions, independent of the urbanisation of the time. It served as both an exhibition studio and an artist's residence. It was used by its author, Aleksander S. Jarc (1958 - 2020), until 2013, and is still partly preserved and occasionally used for artistic events.
The pavilion and the artist are shown in two videos at the following links:

Boštjan Perovšek: elektronika v živo, zvočni prostori / live electronics, soundscapes
Jaka Hawlina
Prvo in osnovno glasbilo je trobenta, kasneje ga začnejo vleči še večja trobila. Prvi band je družinski, nažigajo dixielande, ljudske, evergreene. Začetna raznovrstnost se nadaljuje v številnih žanrskih sprehodih, bandih. Če se mu le posreči, lovi nepričakovano.
Trumpet is his base, got caught up with some larger brass later on. Started as a kid in a family band, burning dixieland, folk tunes, evergreens. Initial diveresity escalates trough various genre walk-troughs, bands. He preys for what he considers unexpected. Not necessarily in experimental music.
Jaka Ropret
Vsestranski basist, kontrabasist in persefonist, ki se zna izražati v mnogoterih glasbenih estetikah in obenem preseže njihove okvire. Njegov način igranja svobodne improvizirane glasbe obsega široko zvočno paleto, pri kateri izkorišča vse motnosti bas kitare, vključno z manj običajnimi.
A versatile bassist, double bassist and persephoneist. He express himself in many musical aesthetics and at the same time goes beyond them. His way of playing free improvised music encompasses a wide range of sounds, taking advantage of all the opacities of the bass guitar, including the less common ones.
