 Florian Hartlieb » Location: CCRMA Stage
Electroacoustic Audio-Fiction in three movements
1.Landing (3' 51")
2.Exploration (2' 40")
3.Encounter (5' 07")

At an unknown time,
in an undated year,
a no further defined species encounters an undiscovered planet

The piece Caladan is inspired by the Science-Fiction Novel 'Dune' by Frank Herbert. The piece is divided in three movements that shall take the audience on a fictive journey to a foreign planet. The first movement describes the landing in the new world. Different sounds from crickets, doves and water (in the novel 'Dune', Caladan is the Water-Planet) are combined with synthetic sounds, generated through Frequency Modulation. The second movement deals with the exploration of the unknown planet. High tension is created and the water sounds get very obvious in this part. In the third movement, different kinds of being encounter themselves, which is musically described through question-answer gestures. The different sounds of the gestures seem to learn from each other and result in a merged soundworld.

The schedule is a major guideline. There is no guarantee events will take place at the announced timeslot.
