Stereo recording of quadraphonic audiovisual installation by Jockel Liess.
‘Bordun Chorus’ is a non-durational live-generative environment with no beginning, end, or in the traditional sense progression. It rather exists, for the time of its performance, in an ever-changing state of subtle transformation. The constantly renewing structure of the work thus defies repetition in favour of self-similarity, and strives towards the simplicity and impermanence inherent to natural organic environments. Within this approach resides the work’s transitory uniqueness of the moment.
