Topographie de l’art, Paris, France: Anläßlich der Ausstellung Les Formes du temps findet ein Gespräch über die philosophischen Vorstellungen von Zeit zwischen Xavier Pavie (Philosoph), Domitille d’Orgeval (Kunsthistorikerin) und den Künstlern Damien Bénéteau, Dimitri Mallet, Eric Michel, Thomas Paquet, Félicie dEstienne dOrves und Vera Röhm statt. Danach Konzert von Marc Behrens mit UUL*, einem Musikstück für elektronische Klangerzeuger, Steuereinheiten und Licht. »UUL*« steht für »Unknown Untranslatable Landscape« und bezieht sich auf die komplexen nonverbalen Gedankenvorstellungen einer Person, die anderen Personen sprachlich nicht vermittelbar sind. Das können psychedelische Halluzinationen, spirituelle Erfahrungen oder psychopathologische Zustände sein. ––– As part of the exhibition Les Formes du temps, a discussion on philosophical conceptions of time is being organised between Xavier Pavie (philosopher), Domitille d’Orgeval (art historian) and artists Damien Bénéteau, Dimitri Mallet, Eric Michel, Thomas Paquet, Félicie d’Estienne d’Orves and Vera Röhm. Afterwards concert with Marc Behrens mit UUL*, a music piece for electronic sound generators, control units and light.

hr2-kultur radio, Germany: broadcast premiere of Marc Behrens’ Our Tongues in Your Ears. Bacharach at the Rhine river has been known for winegrowing since centuries. Marc Behrens recorded fermentation processes of various wines in wooden casks and stainless steel tanks at Marco Hofmann’s and the Ratzenberger vineyard. The microphone was sometimes placed directly at the bung hole where gases evaporate passing through old ceramic and stoneware fermentation locks or through modern glass tube airlocks. In the final composition of the piece the murmuring acoustics of the cellars, the sizzling sounds within the fermenting liquids and the materiality of the steel tanks appear in contrast to the gurgling and bubbling of the gases. Editor: Stefan Fricke.

Stephen Fenton / Marc Behrens FOTO- UND VIDEOARBEITEN, Galerie Station im Mousonturm, Waldschmidtstr. 4, Frankfurt a. M. Opening Wed May 7, 20:00 (with DJ Zipo/Auf Abwegen). Curated by W.E. Baumann.
The two artists – whose visual subjects feature forest structures, antennas for mobile communication, cloud and light phenomena as well as condensation trails – know each other via email since 1999 by the occasion of a purchase of a CD. 2001 Fenton published a CD album by Behrens on his label e d i t i o n . . . During the examination of the cover design Fenton reacted enthusiastically, because it stroke him immediately that Behrens’ photographs were similar to his own ones. Whereupon Behrens proposed to make an exhibition together somewhere sometime. In Chicago 2002 they missed each other by several days, because Fenton was on his way to Tokyo, and Behrens couldn’t return earlier from Valencia. It’s great that they can now meet in Frankfurt.
