Central to this work is the (de)generation(s) of sound. By using the most direct way of sound storage (audio-cutting & molding) fragments and notations are crafted and reproduced on sound-carriers. The technique is such that during the process of storing and reproduction, information is lost or distorted. This is not taken as a depreciation. By pulling this technique through multiple generations, a new sound appears. The piece comments on the ethics and aesthetics of audio and the source. The question is  how we valorize the output. Are we looking for purity in the sense of ‘authentic’ as pristine, or do we consider ‘the real thing’ as  unavoidably lived through and furnished by noise, changing, transmutating.

Based on this methodology Peter Fengler will produce an intriguing sound-archive, with a singular status, leaving the source behind.
