TURNS x Jia Liu: »Superposition Composition«

In the organizer's words:

The Superposition Composition is an artistic-scientific experiment that translates the quantum mechanical principle of superposition into a musical form. You can now experience the results in a final concert.

In quantum mechanics, superposition describes the state in which a system is in several states simultaneously until a measurement is made and the state is determined. Repeated measurements reveal probabilities, the weighting of which then marks the final state. The "Superposition Composition" is an artistic-scientific experiment that translates the quantum mechanical principle of superposition into a musical form.

Concert series TURNS @ ZKM I Hertzlab

In February, the ZKM I Hertzlab launched TURNS, a new concert series in the KUBUS that creates immersive listening experiences and changes our perspective on sound. Once a month, we invite you to discover new perspectives on electronic music, sound art and sound art in the Klangdom. International and local artists encourage us to expand our understanding of music - in performances, participatory installations and interactive formats.

In the new concert series TURNS, curated by Dr. Lea Luka Sikau, minerals become a choir, gamers become performers and quanta become sound. With a new spatial stage, the audience takes center stage. A place of shared experience is created where people can meet anew and playfully question sound.

Three thematic cycles form the framework for TURNS. They combine social discourse, artistic research and musical expression to create immersive experiences that focus on the process and collective experimentation.

Each of the thematic cycles of "TURNS" - SOUNDING CYCLES (February-April 2025), SOUNDING OUT HEALTH (May-August 2025) and SOUNDING OUT CONNECTION (September-December 2025) - is a thematic impulse that opens up transformative perspectives on sound.
