A piece on the subject of mining; Orbis was the first work composed in the Artefact Series collection of works in 2016, detailing the inflections and particular qualities of a performer and their characteristic of playing.

A narrative piece journeying deeper into the earth with each phrase to celebrate the beauty of the earth while also observing the extent to which the human touch passes over and within the planet.

Permiered 18th February 2018 by Andrzej Karałow and Pablo Sánchez-Escariche Gasch at the Pałac Łazienkowski in Warsaw, Poland. Vol translates directly from French as both theft and flight. The piece captures a fleeting moment as two worlds collide, one fading into the past and another rising into the present. All is overwhelmed and saturated in the knowledge of impending exile; that this is the last glimpse what was once home but can no longer be. It has been stolen and one must take flight. 

A piece on the subject of plastic pollution and its presence of interaction within our world. The extent of its touch is beyond anything we could have imagined and, like a work of Frankenstein, is now interacting with the world out of our control. We have created substances that have stepped beyond us, having a life of their own right down to the methods of which they interact within the ecosystem. 

If a forest could speak to us what would it say? The most ancient living aspect of our planet unveiled into a tangible face of interaction through a conversation most traceable to siren-song. The album has been inspired by a reading of Peter Wohlleben's 'The Hidden Life of Trees'. The single 'ex aere' first premiered in July 2017 in City Recital Hall, Sydney Australia, before remastering for release 31st December 2017. 

Available on iTunes, Spotify and Bandcamp.

“De Voir presents an extremely fine and differentiated triad of surprises. We have an intricate triangle, especially since it is not clear whether it is only dreamed… The music, which was specially composed by Kirsten Milenko for this dance – she also plays De Voir herself on the piano – supports the feeling laid impression. It is an inner action, and to what extent it is objectively real, the spectator must decide for himself… The cooperation of music and dance is very much to be praised. And composition is also a part of the choreography.”

"Music is liquid architecture; Architecture is frozen music" - Goethe

In moments of stillness, the intimate sounds of our world emerge into the audible realm and bring with them a state of absolute peace. O is an expression of convergence points, set as an analysis of air movements around the surface of cliff faces. This work was written for and first performed by members of the E-Mex ensemble: Evelin Degen, Joachim Striepens, and Martin von der Heydt in Poland, 2016.
