moves by Achim Wollscheid
Once I had the idea to play a house. This happened when the city of Frankfurt, in charge of an investment company and intending to raise the acceptance of a deserted industrial complex, planned to perform a vernissage in this place. Therefore they needed an artist and an artwork. When I was asked, I thought that it would be apt to the situation to leave the huge space empty of artworks and instead attach a computer-generated clapper to each of the 1400 windows to transform the space into a poly-rhythm box. I liked the plan, but the investors didn't. Nevertheless I pursued the idea to activate the resonance frequencies of given objects in a space in order to arrive at site- and space-specific compostitions which would change with every place and given situation.
