Click Forest/зелена вулиця by Maria Margolina

"How can the end be already in the middle of the beginning? - as the problem is posed in Pandemonium, whenever - in the outer-time of Ummnu - the cryptic thicking of chthonic unclocks mark an incursion from benath, or between. Down there it is forever turning into itself, through the electromagnetic catatracts of Cthelll, whose body-neutral metallic click-storms feel like sinking out of chronocity."(CCRU)
In "Click Forest/зелена вулиця" Maria demonstrates her approach on the integration of mobile phones in musical compositions and examplifies one of the many practical usages of a phone. The basis builds a piano recording, of course done with a smartphone, the density of glitched sounds made with Max4Live rises slowly and leads you in the uttering, mumbling and ticking depths of the green street.
"Maria Margolina (*1998 in Dnipro) is a media artist, DJ and musician. In her artistic practice, in addition to video, text and objects, she focuses primarily on sound. In doing so, she examines the themes of memory and trauma from a political, socio-cultural and autobiographical point of view. The works oscillate back and forth between collective, collaborative, participatory, performative and installation-based approaches. Since 2019 she has been studying sculpture/design in three-dimensional space at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich in the class of Olaf Nicolai, but is currently in Brussels as part of an internship at "QO2". Since 2022, she has been a scholarship holder of the Studienstiftung (d.d.V.). From 2018 to 2021 she was a member of "DAF - Dynamic Acoustic Research", an open sound and performance collective. In addition, she has been part of the Munich online radio "Radio 80000" since 2020 and is active as a DJ under her pseudonym "Slovva"."(Lothringer13)
