Vostok 7 is a reenactment of the spaceship that has not been built yet.

Filmed in a single shot in Soshenko 33 in Kiev the radiofilm is an artistic study of the Vostok Program of Soviet Space Travel that began with Yuri Gagarin's first manned space flight, Vostok 1 in 1961, and ended with Vostok 6 in 1963 with the first woman in space, Valentina Tereshkowa.

The semi-fictional narrative is introduced from the perspective of the first radio frequency between humans in space: established between the Vostok 5 and Vostok 6 spaceships. Remembering its three human incarnations in Kherson, South Ukraine, the radio frequency addresses the relationship between eco-logical and ego-logical concerns reflected within a human experience. The work is developed as a contribution to the RAUPENIMMERSATTISM (https://antonkats.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b909b03ce33d8935ca9026e8f&id=53504cc4f9&e=91a74c8dce)  exhibition at SAVVY Contemporary, Berlin.

SAVVY's Listening Session: UNTRAINING THE EAR is hosting an encounter with the space traveller ILYICH (https://antonkats.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b909b03ce33d8935ca9026e8f&id=4f5c88d5f0&e=91a74c8dce) , who in sonic ritual, travels through sound to explore the many possibilities of listening. With ILYICH it is inevitable to think of space, time, sound, body nexus, and how sound will inform our futures and pasts.

Sound Crystal (https://antonkats.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b909b03ce33d8935ca9026e8f&id=e6d60148ee&e=91a74c8dce) is an interactive sonic sculpture developed to encourage spontaneous emergence of sonic and performative rituals and music concerts, collectively exploring the de-colonial potential of listening. The sculpture synthesises pragmatic concerns of a sound system while exploring the basic geometrical forms and auditory hallucinations like Doppler Effect.The work is a semi-autonomous, futuristic vessel suggesting sound and listening as an aesthetic, technological, and collaborative project for outer and inner-space explorations.

The sign hand gesture is the letter «И» (https://antonkats.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b909b03ce33d8935ca9026e8f&id=f3f29348d0&e=91a74c8dce) ([ee]) in the sign language of the Cyrillic alphabet. И is a literal saw-tooth waveform diagram in the subtractive synthesis practice and translates as “and” into English.

Prioritizing “and” over “but”, the gesture is a silent reminder of the human body as a primary synesthetic vehicle and the main form of communication synthesizing and transducing fundamental frequencies of light and sound.

A limited edition И Pins is out now. You can simply click on the И above and order a couple from Bandcamp.
