Dark Energy comes to London
From 14 October to 22 November 2008, Florian Hecker will be exhibiting a new sound work at Sadie Coles HQ, Pentaphonic Dark Energy. This is doubly exciting for us at Collapse as not only is Florian a contributor (with Russell Haswell, in Collapse III) but the piece Dark Energy refers to Dark Matter: Probing the Arche-Fossil, our interview with theoretical physicist Roberto Trotta in Collapse II, which partly inspired the work.
From Sadie Coles website: Superimposed onto the existing gallery structure, Pentaphonic Dark Energy creates an environment in which body and architecture intersect. Across five loudspeakers sonic sequences combine to create the impression that space is being sculpted. As the piece develops, it builds into a series of opposites and contradictions: stable and uneven, fast and slow, loud and quiet.
