Experimental audiovisual artist Sabiwa, supported by the SHAPE+ initiative, draws inspiration from a myriad of personal recordings – among other daily family life, natural and surrounding soundscapes, sounds and ancient music traditions from native tribes of Taiwan – to create a beguiling journey through traditional Taiwanese folk musics turned concrète.
Channeling historical instruments like the gigantic theorbo lute, the baroque alto viola, and the baroque oboe, as Heinali the Ukrainian composer and musician Oleh Shpudeiko resynthesises early music with a modular synthesiser, exploring intersections of past and present. In doing so, he connects the technology and mathematics inherent in both Renaissance polyphony and modular synthesis, providing a bridge between worlds. The SHAPE+ supported artist will be joined by the Berlin-based visual artist u-matic & telematique, who hold a particular fascination for intangible processes including perception and the sense of time.

Biographien
The Taiwanese audiovisual artist Sabiwa is exploring new dimensions of sound. Moulding field recordings beyond recognition, the world is a studio to Sabiwa. Her aural works bleed into the intersections of nature, earth magicks, and ritual. Conveying the viewer to a world of natural sound, she warps it, smearing sonics across the mind. With her voice as your guide, she builds psychedelic bridges to ceremonial rituals of the mind.
Oleh Shpudeiko is a Ukrainian-born music composer and sound artist who records as Heinali. He specialises in electronic music and modular synthesis, taking inspiration from early music. As a self-taught electronic music composer, Oleh possesses a stylistically diverse back catalogue, sound art and interdisciplinary works. However, in his core practice, he's been focused on reimagining medieval music with a modular synthesiser.
Ute Härting aka u-matic and Sven Gareis aka telematique design and create live video shows and design interactive installations. With live performances and video installations they have gained international renown over many years of practice. They create interactive stage sets, architectural projections, and constantly expand their image vocabulary to visualise music.
Programme
From 26 January – 4 February 2024, CTM Festival will celebrate a silver 25 year anniversary at Radialsystem, Berghain, silent green, and other Berlin venues.
CTM 2024 is titled "Sustain" – a weird and fascinating word that touches opposite polarities of the contemporary experience as it speaks of the empathy and determination through which we survive, as well as of our anxieties, losses, and pains. In the word "sustain" we sense both what we are going through while hearing what needs to be done. It is as much a description as it is an imperative as it is a vocation towards more interdependent ways of life. With its 2024 edition CTM Festival asks what if "sustain" were a sound? What would it be like? Music is not only a refuge, but also a constant reminder of our desire to get closer to the brighter end of the spectrum. Looking at musical life and music ecosystems under the perspective of "sustain", what ideals, ethics, and practices can we identify and discuss to make music a means to work towards something more sane, just, and sustainable?
