Afar

After weeks and months of isolated selfmade recordings at an inspiring, abandoned house around Berlin and at home, AFAR finished their first Album.

Andi is a audiophil researcher for the spiritual energy which can be coded into sound by people, instruments, bodies, and ears.

A unique set of sensors connecting his cello and the computer as one instrument, using the bow as a special interface. The bow is used to play the cello in the traditional way, but it also measure the movement and acceleration of the bow, as well as the applied finger pressure. Merging the organic and electronic, he creates wandering ambient sound spaces up to dance-orientated rythms.
