    Air Pressure is a live performance born from the dialogue between field recordings from Antarctica and experimental performance practices.

The result is an improvised exchange between site-related sound materials and live gestures, through which environmental recordings are transformed into a dynamic and spatial sonic experience.

    At the core of Sonic Alchemy lies electroacoustic improvisation as an open and process-based practice. Natalie Peters’ voice, instruments, and electronics enter into an equal dialogue in which sound is understood as a fluid and constantly evolving material. Voice, instrument, and electronics interact on equal terms, forming a dynamic system where sonic matter is continuously reshaped in real time through improvisation.
