hybrid #1 – ⥀18 is a sound composition/installation made up of several mechanical turntables, flutes, and balloons. The flutes are played by the air returning from the balloons and are set in rotation by the turntables. During this process, the sound is modified in several ways: constantly, due to the decrease in air pressure, including changes in intensity and timbre; and abruptly, including pitch changes, when the playing mode alternates between “overblowingˮ and “normalˮ playing. In addition, the three turntables rotate at different speeds, successively recomposing the sonic whole.
In this amplified version for two different spaces in Serralves Museum, the installation is expanded with a choir that imitates the modulated sounds of the flutes in the microtonal area, interacting with them and or partially amplifying them. There is also an additional visual aspect: the performers that repeatedly appear and disappear among the large rotating white balloons. The installation and those who perform happen to merge not only sonically but also visually, during the performance.
Participation: Ensemble Vocal Pro Musica; Directed by: José Manuel Pinheiro

Andreas Trobollowitsch is an Austrian electroacoustic musician, composer, and sound artist based in Vienna. He studied musicology and jazz theory in Vienna and Paris and wrote his dissertation on spatial approaches in the compositions of Karlheinz Stockhausen and John Cage. He works extensively in the fields of electroacoustic composition and improvisation, and has composed for dance, theatre, film, and radio. Recently, he has focused mainly on conceptual compositions, sound installations, and self-developed musical instruments based on systems of rotation, vibration, and feedback. An interest in the dichotomy between the intellectual and the physical is apparent as he includes visual aspects, spatiality, movement, and their relationships to sound.
Some festival appearances include Festival Novas Frequências (Rio de Janeiro), Lisboa Soa (Lisbon), Tsonami Festival (Valparaíso), Festival Maintenant (Rennes), Festival Dotolimpic (Seoul), Sonica (Ljubljana), Cynetart Dresden, Elevate (Graz).
