Alvin Curran’s installation for a hanging self-performing piano and a large number of football boots strewn across the floor was inspired by Pier Paolo Pasolini who, because of his vast talents and interests, was an avid football player. Completely randomly and far more than artificially intelligent, the programme living within the instrument chooses from a huge number of pre-recorded data and composes an infinite number of musical events – played acoustically on this socalled “diskklavier” piano. “Footnotes 1.2“ is a sounding artwork, that welcomes the musician Marco Blaauw for a performative dialog at certain times!
