slits of time is an interdisciplinary research on the concept of time. An exploration of innovative methods to bend linear time through different media (acoustic and electronic music, video, sculpture, installation, space, performance) and establish a fleeting liminal experience. Time is slit into moments that are stretched out, sped up, paused, enlarged, delayed, digitized, deleted, recorded, rewound, registered, repeated, rearranged, reconfigured, reset, remixed, reshuffled, reconnected, re-enacted, looped, landscaped, unraveled, multiplied, modulated and materialized. A reality shift towards a space in between. A treshold between realities: analog and digital, material and immaterial, registered and artificial, real and virtual.
