“WE SNEEZE AND HITS COME OUT!” BAND
BAND is a four piece international outfit from England, Germany, Poland
and the Philippines; It is a group which at once, is more and less than
the sum of its parts. Their cocksure presence and screeching noise make
for a lethal combination: everybody in one room thrashing it out as if
there is no tomorrow, let alone yesterday.
BAND’s project for Fluc Wanne is composed of a sequence of interventions
starting with colorful advertising and culminating with a twist of the
concert venue’s spatiality. Their interventions combine elegant media
strategies with reflexive feedback systems. The evening is designed to be
a complete sell-out with a sensitive touch: there will be posters and
T-shirts, sounds and images, microphones and TVs, on-stage boredom and
backstage hoopla.
Philosophically, the event will relate to both functional program and to
aesthetic form. It will be, literally, mathematics converted into space,
rock ‘n’ roll bent into shape. BAND’s stated ambition is to “just do these
things and not worry about looking like an asshole anymore.”
