Arc Carrier
Arc Carrier is a site-specific sound performance that explores the relationship between electricity and acoustics, transforming invisible electromagnetic fields into sonic matter that resonates throughout space.
Arc Carrier is a site-specific sound performance that explores the relationship between electricity and acoustics, transforming invisible electromagnetic fields into sonic matter that resonates throughout space.
The core structure of the audiovisual performance consists of sound sculptures, intricate glass constructions, vacuum tubes, and Tesla coils, which highlight the unique properties of high-frequency electrical phenomena as a multisensory experience. Electrical discharges, spectral noise, and oscillations emerge directly from matter itself, bringing electricity and electromagnetic fields to the foreground not only as natural processes but also as sources of aesthetic and musical creation, shaping a field of sensory convergence.

George Moraitis
George Moraitis is an Athens-based multimedia artist. His practice investigates the space between sound sculpture, audiovisual installations, two-dimensional works and performance. His multi-layered works incorporate sound and found objects which are often accompanied by video, photography, screen prints, performance and computer-controlled interactive installations. Sound - itself a primary medium of his works - takes the form of acoustic and psychoacoustic explorations of the body, sculpture and vision in intersections of the peculiarities of perception, materiality and technology. Working with sound, installations and performance, Moraitis proposes narratives aiming to disrupt memory, experience and a sense of history, expressing thus the underlying tensions within our contemporary mode of living: the multiplicity and fragmentation of its languages.
