Fri 22 - The Black Box

The French-born, Berlin-based electronic musician and sound artist’s practice unfolds around live performances and installations. Her quadraphonic performances, characterized by their physical affect, seek catharsis through the interplay of psychoacoustics, the perception of rhythmic structures, and the interchange of noise and melody. Her ever-changing and immersive sonic landscapes are grounded in questions such as the relationship between individual perception and collective dynamics or the investigation of listening expectations and their societal roots.

One the six composers chosen as collaborators by Natascha Süder Happelman for her installation at the German pavilion of the Venice Biennale 2019, Ekomane was part of the SHAPE Platform for 2019. September 2019 saw the release of her debut LP Multivocal via Important Records. Her work has been presented in various institutions worldwide such as CTM festival (Berlin), Ars Electronica (Linz), Dommune (Tokyo) and Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts (Omaha).
