Following a captivating concert as part of MUTEK MX in 2022, Alex Tibbits returns as The Bionic Harpist to present the latest iteration of her electroacoustic performance, this time in a special collaboration alongside Mexican producer Raúl Villamil aka Techno para Dos. Fran-gere, the performance they have created together, emerges right at the intersection of their instruments - an intervened harp and a Moog Matarich - to speculate on the sound of a modular harp.
For MUTEK MX Edition 20, Fran-gere will premiere its immersive audiovisual version, which expands the exploration of this modular harp recreated between Alex and Raúl to a synchronous lighting display that is also modulated from the strings of The Bionic Harpist.
