Ursula Bogner:
Schleusen (sonor)

Composition for three slide projectors, six signal generators and six perfomers, year unknown. The performers are guided by a time, amplitude and frequency diagram. The fifty years old signal generators are originally from measurement technology and can only be played precisely to a certain extent. Both the slide projection and the signal generators performance can be staged separately - and independently. The score refers only to the use of the signal generators. The slide projection plays autonomously, without a performer. Please scroll down for further information on the slide projection.

Schleusen (sonor) slide show projection: Three Kodak Carousel S-AV2000 slide projectors with a specially designed cross-fade control unit (random algorythm for the parameters: next slide, fade-in time & light intensity). The original control unit is considered lost. Titles/motifs of the slides: 1. Supergranulation, 2. Arc Solar Eclipse 1980, 3. Discovery Image Comet Halley, 4. Aurora at Jupiter's rim (deutsch: 1. Supergranulation, 2. Lichtbogen Sonnenfinsternis 1980, 3. Entdeckungsaufnahme Komet Halley, 4. Aurora am Jupiterrand).
