With Julio César Palacio
It is a piece by sound artist and composer Julio César Palacio that seeks to transform the space into a sonic body that fuses live sound and resonant materials, inviting the audience to decentralise listening and feel through the skin of the other.
The title "Contaminated Diversity" is taken from the book "The Mushroom at the End of the World" by Anna L. Tsing and refers to the cultural and biological life forms that have developed in relation to the last few hundred years of widespread human disruption. Contaminated diversity is a collaborative adaptation to human-disturbed ecosystems. In this project Julio seeks to create a place that mixes fantasy with hyper-reality (natural/artificial) and a look at the world today. The piece has been constructed with references ranging from Octavia Butler's fantasy stories, Vija Celmins' drawings and some texts by Hito Steyerl.
Julio César Palacio is participating in the HoME (House. Music. Europe.) European Residency project, a three-year project co-founded by Creative Europe in collaboration with the Mixtur Festival in Barcelona.
