Doom mood is a duo project,
a long-term collaboration established with Maud Buckenmeyer. It is focused
on the interrelations between voice, wind instruments, moving body and their
semantics. Our common interests evolved around the material and poetic aspects of
sound making.
The work has begun with our mutual interest in wind instruments and voice. Hours that we have spent improvising together, during the night secret sessions in the studio and sessions in public spaces. We play around with the form of concert and performance, sneaking into various gaps between these forms. Through this work, we want to explore a notion of the world as an immersion in which “our eyes are ears”. It implies the shift of attention from objects to fluxes and from vision to the musical experience. Following this shift, we are interested in dance perceived through an audio medium, wondering what the body of a voice is.
Our work combines humour, sensuality, grounding and catastrophe - stretched between celebrating the absurds of life and climate grieving.
