?? PERSONAL NOTES
FROM TDF:
There are 3 conceptual ideas into this complex happening:
*** Live Mixtape is a sound installation & street
cabaret with explosive chaos energy. This idea was
developped in 2007 with WhoMadeWho and then again with Escho
in 2011, then with Mikkel Hess at the Royal Theatre in 2012
and in Berlin with Michael Meyer (Kompakt) in 2011 or 2012.
*** Radio Installation was developped with 24syv / Mikael
Bertelsen in 2013-2014-2015 and then again in 2019 in honour
of Master Fatman with 28 sound systems with both 24syv and
DR P3 lending us their radio waves. The idea is to create a
sound installation with multiple sound sources - so the
public can become the sound system with their ghettoblaster,
sound system, car or truck. The Radio Installation is
inspired by the improvised minirave party with 3-4-5 cars on
a parking lot on the motorway, when we were going to rave
parties in 1994 in Paris, listening to the same radio,
waiting for the location of teh rave to be announced, with
several cars making a sound installation on a parking lot on
the motorway. There is also a social-class context here: I
wanted to give the Kongens Nytorv square to the provincial
kids who party at the petrol station in the country side
with their cars
*** The One Minute Rave was performed with bridge lifts on
Knippelsbro, Refshaløen and Langebro in 2009, 2010, 2013,
2017, 2018 and 2023. The concept is to create a an
explosive, unexpected moment of absolute, raw intensity.
