Co-Creators Sonosynthesis_Noise#5 (2023)
Chienne De Garde, self thought pluridisciplinairy doe producer, under different aliases, she explores various creative mediums. Under the project name ‘Sirenessa,’ her DJ project, she tries to recreate the emotion she felt the first time she heard Dubstep in a club. I have had a close relationship with Chienne De Garde since 2012 through her performances and my role as a curator. We have shared many different moments in politically-inspired sonic experiences. Recently, Chienne De Garde collaborated with me in performing “Kuze”1 at Motel Campo Geneve during the Swiss Ceramic Days. After this wonderful experience and our strong bond, she became a part of Sonosynthesis_Noise.
tina omayemi reden is indeed a multidisciplinary , artist, mentor, and community activist. Her involvement, along with the FUBU community has been crucial to this research, and their active participation has been immensely valuable. Her individual presence and Care for The Margins has been extremely appreciated. Our journey together began in 2018 with the impulse of a performance by Black Pitch, and since then, we have maintained a deep connection. Over the years, we have collaborated in various meaningful ways.
Tapiwa Svosve is a great jazz musician based in Zürich. Both Tapiwa and Tina are from the same community, and I distinctly remember my first encounter with them in a really dark event room many years ago before I knew them personally. Tina’s full-bodied and soulful voice filled the room as she recited rich words, while Tapiwa’s saxophone created fascinating, small yet captivating sounds with microtonal motions. From that moment, I knew we should collaborate together one day. Before Tapiwa’s involvement in Sonosynthesis_Noise, we had already worked together on an improvised piece with Black Pitch.
