About Me |
|
| Marcelo Aguirre hails from Argentina and has resided in the city of Berlin for the past six years. A self-taught percussionist and vocalist, his playing manifests a spectrum of influences, ranging from spacious, delicate pulsation, to bursts of pure tone color into free music or charged noise, with a focus on continuous sound and changing dynamics. He curated and co-curated events at the Podewil Contemporary Arts Center in Berlin, 2003-2004 (Sculpture Musicale; Violet Music I & II; der negative horizont ). He is also active writing about experimental music since '92 for diverse magazines and creating his small homemade, work-in progress label minúscula. His involvement on various intermedia projects include live improv with Anna Barth's Butoh dance performances; the cut-up quartet Val Afumo alongside visual/performance artists Peter Morrens , Juha Valkeapää and musician Andréas Fulgosi providing music to avantgarde cinema; and the duo The Inner Metal with Karen Scheper merging sound performance with live drawings/environments. Actively working with California composer Michael Jon Fink , has toured venues in Berlin, Paris, Lier, Brussels, Berkeley and Los Angeles, while has/keeps working with composers/improvisers John Duncan , Hans W. Koch , Bettina Wenzel , Steffen Basho-Junghans , Mark Trayle , Daniel Varela, José Marchi , John Hegre , Raymond Dijkstra , Timo van Luijk , Z'EV and Ulrich Krieger .
