Eror (The pianist) | Georgia Spiropoulos

A performance inspired by the word “λάθως” (lathos: in error), written on the walls of Athens. In a city without people, the only survivor is a pianist who repeats that same word —“λάθως”—over and over again. The work expresses the political, geographical, and social instability through the digital instability – the introduction of the aleatory and the algorithmic error in the musical material, the sound and the video image. Pianistic gestures, brief references and tributes, and field recordings are transformed through a complex music computing environment. A ‘sound-geography of “error” for a city without people with the graffiti art of Vaggelis Choursoglou on the background. The performance was presented on 22-23.02.2019 at the Onassis Stegi Main Stage.
