All noises performed by Brandstifter, Ingmar Ehler, Michael Klotzki and Tanja Roolfs at the 1st Walpoden Art Walk (WAWA) at the banks of the river Rhine in Mainz-Mombach on March 19th 2023. Fieldrecordings + Linernotes: Wingel Mendoza. Picture: Brandstifter. The Fieldrecording was part of the intermedia exhibition „Down Under Schierstein Bridge“ at the non for profit art organisation Walpodenakademie of Mainzer Kunstverein Walpodenstr. 21 e.V..

Everything comes and goes, different voices, and one very deep, although still nothing is close. Suddenly, one of the distant voices became more present and soon faded away, as if a slow and heavy monster were there, awakening. Each of them is present from their own existence. Not far away, small voices crackle. Further ahead of me, a percussive being, like a creature pecking in the distance, it moved dragging its own self through the earth. I realized that this creature was made of heavy and rusted metal, the rust wearing away beneath the stones. Its voice is made of thousand metals. It speaks high-pitched and quickly becomes low, perhaps its bones break as it tries to crawl. Now, another entity appears, perhaps a bird as its voice comes from the air, very high-pitched, a distant voice with constant and rhythmic echoes, maybe there are 2 or more but I cannot see them, they fly fast. Then, the creature of heavy and rusted metal sheds its stone scales and also its eyes, which I could find, 2 pieces of black metal. But these monster eyes are not meant for seeing, they reproduce with sounds the voices of the past that the creature has heard. This is how the creature distinguishes the world, with the metallic sounds of its surroundings.
