Open edition
5th release and 3rd full-length album Atrium Omnis - is a sonic journey about the decentralization of information and the post-media environment in which Humanity exists.
At the core of its main concept lies an informational crossroads of events within the so-called hyperreality of post-digital culture, where decontextualized radio transmissions, news, discussion fragments, and social media content intersect in one place, endlessly arriving from and departing in all vectorial directions. The listener finds themselves in the midst of unfolding events.
Information "fragments" are shattered, distorted in the stream, losing their original source, leaving thoughts unfinished, turning inside out, and layering upon one another simultaneously.
The goal of this project is to attempt to examine the informational noise - the noise that surrounds us daily, that we receive today from media sources, rushing at us from all sides by exploring its ever-changing form, looking into its structure, trying to understand where it is heading and how we relate to it.
"Die Große Methode" draws on Bertolt Brecht’s idea of theatre as a tool for social analysis. Brecht believed that the audience should not passively immerse themselves in a performance, but maintain critical distance - to observe, question, and recognize contradictions. This concept, known as the Verfremdungseffekt (alienation effect), was central to his epic theatre.
In this track, that idea is transposed into the realm of modern media. Today’s information landscape is a new kind of theatre, where news outlets play roles and the audience reads headlines like scripted dialogue. As with Brecht’s stage, the key is to resist blind immersion, to read critically, to interrogate narratives, and to stay aware of how perception is shaped.
"Die Große Methode" isn’t a homage to Brecht, but an application of his method as a lens for confronting mediated reality.
