Far East Sketches
audiovideo performance led by Andrej Kocan

Location: Urban Space Epics Studio, Meet Factory, Prague

This audiovisual work fuses music made and recorded in local, mostly indigenous, communities around the world with western music. Thus the finished productions contrast the work and feel of musics made in local communities with that made in and for postmodern, industrialized societies. These presentations evoke in the audience awareness of and reflection on fast transformations currently at work in the world. By listening to, and flowing with, these changes, a track or path for spiritual travel emerges, and invites the listener to travel across time, space and states of mind and feeling.

 V drugi oddaji finala sezone četrtkovih jutranjih programov v studiu gostimo Andreja Kocana, tonskega mojstra v v skupini za produkcijo dokumentarnega programa na slovenski nacionalni televiziji, ki je svojo poklicno pot kot tonski tehnik in glasbeni sodelavec pričel na naši radijski postaji, nadaljeval pa s študijem za tonskega mojstra na Akademiji za glasbo v Kopenhagnu ter na Šanhghajskem konzervatoriju za glasbo.

Poimenovali so me varuh pozabljene glasbe, moram reči, da mi prav godi. Čeprav se nisem dojemal kot varuha, mogoče pa bom s tem delovanjem le prispeval en delček k ohranitvi glasbenega izročila sveta.
