TMS is an experimental noise project by the two Berlin-based artists Malte Steiner (DE) and Tina Mariane Krogh Madsen (DK). The format of the TMS project is improvisational site-specific sound pieces built out of Steiner and Madsen’s sonic interactions, where noisescapes and complex structures emerge from intense layering of various sonic in- and outputs. The physical interaction with materials is an important part of TMS’ identity, and to create a performative and visual sound experience.

About the piece movement(al) distortion(s): Performative inputs of objects and body(triggered) sounds will be transformed and distorted through the use of analogue electronic manipulation. The feed-ins will happen live and run through various pedals and other self-created DIY manipulators that transform these into a dynamic noisescape. Translating and modifying movement and interaction with body and objects into sound. The sources and inputs come from the interaction of the two performers, each bringing physical elements into the shared composition. Sounds from objects and the interaction between body, surfaces and the architectural structures of the space feed into the piece through the use of piezo microphones. Both performers will live manipulate their own generated sounds into an interwoven structure of resonating noise patterns.

Aleks Slota’s performative practice addresses the themes of public persona, systemic and interpersonal violence, and internalized and externalized power structures. These themes are confronted in his works about religious intolerance, internet anonymity, substance abuse, family history, loneliness, hedonism, linguistics, nationalism, state surveillance, sexuality, migration, the artist’s ego, among others.
