19:00 HENRI HÜTT, VEIKO TUBIN "Enter the enter" // almost a show //
"Enter the enter" focuses on the fine tuning between real life and created situations. During the process, the audience entrance calls from all the Estonian performing arts venues were collected. Entrance melody (a unique tradition of Estonian theaters) that usually starts the preparation of the show and is the sign to take the seat will be this time the main character on stage. ”Enter the enter” as the preparation for the connection between the spectator and spectacle.
Henri Hütt is a (performing) artist, whose spectrum of artwork contains predominantly technological performative acts, sound-performances, staged exhibitions, curating, writing, installative performances and other unattainable formats.
Veiko Tubin is a freelance actor, composer and director. Graduated from the Estonian Academy of Music and Theater, under the supervision of Priit Pedajas.
20:00 METTE EDVARDSEN "WE TO BE" // almost a show //
Originally, "We to be" (2015) is a performance that is written as a play and read out loud by one performer sitting together with the audience, in front of an empty stage. Additionally, the performance is broadcast live on the radio. Thus, the piece works with three media presented simultaneously in three places: a performance in a theatre, a play in a book, and a live radio broadcast. In Festival of Spooky Action At The Distance Mette is at home, reading. Virtually in your home too. Darken your screen and We to be becomes a radio broadcast.
The work of Mette Edvardsen is situated within the performing arts field as a choreographer and performer. Although some of her works explore other media or other formats her interest is always in their relationship to the performing arts as a practice and a situation. She presents her works internationally and continues to develop projects with other artists, both as a collaborator and as a performer.
21:00 THE ESTONIAN ELECTRONIC MUSIC SOCIETY Udo Kasemets: "Tt – tribute to Buckminster Fuller, Marshall McLuhan, John Cage" // almost a concert //
“Tt – tribute to Buckminster Fuller, Marshall McLuhan, John Cage” is an interactive multimedia composition by Kasemets from year 1968, where the audience can influence the sound, visuals and light design with their decisions.
Udo Kasemets (1919–2014) has been jokingly called the most famous least known composer of Estonia. There is an article about him in every respected music encyclopedia. In Canada, where Kasemets spent most of his creative life, he was named “probably the most uncompromising musician in the history of Canadian music”.
The Estonian Electronic Music Society (EES) was founded in 2017. The aim of the Society is to introduce and develop contemporary electronic music in Estonia. In order to achieve a wider audience, it is planned to systematically organize concerts, workshops, lectures and professional meetings to create an inter national audience for creative life, to record music, to publish and to present Estonian electronic music internationally.
