Israel Martínez: The Murmur of Thought

01.11.2023 / 19:00 – 22:00
With Israel Martínez

Live concert followed by a conversation with Salomé Voegelin

The murmur of thought is a multichannel aural and visual concert by Israel Martínez presenting works created after his last presentation at daadgalerie and CTM Festival in 2019, especially pieces produced during the pandemic confinement, including field recordings, records of vocal and choral collaborations, electronica, and video. This murmur is an invitation to remember the introspective and collective potency of sound.

Israel Martínez’s work as a multidisciplinary artist is centered in work with sound. It encompasses a broad spectrum of activities, among them experimental and non-academic electronic music, performance actions, video, installations and site-specific projects, and collaborations with filmmakers and visual artists. He is a co-founder of the Mexican label Abolipop and artistic head of the electronica project Nebula 3. Since the mid-1990s, he has contributed to Mexican publications as a journalist on alternative music and culture.

After the concert, Israel will be in conversation with Salomé Voegelin. She is a writer, researcher, and practitioner, who works from the relational logic of sound to focus on the in-between and the liminal, where different disciplines meet to deal with contemporary issues, and where feminist, decolonial, and post anthropocentric realities can engender different and plural knowledge possibilities.
