Furioso is a performative sound score in which we encounter the raw energy of rage in different ways, each through our own instrument. Body and subject surrender to sonic violence, to the body's eruption—furioso (wild, stormy), con fuoco (with fire), agitato (agitated). It resists the feeling of powerlessness, which is barren and creates nothing. Anger, by contrast, is productive, charged with energy. How can it empower us without becoming merely destructive? How do we maintain lucidity in the midst of chaos, and create meaning in the face of meaninglessness? Together, we unscrew the valves of collective rage—and vent.
This year, we invited dancer, performer, choreographer, and educator Nataša Živković to create the Ventilator project.
Ventilator is a program framework of the Sploh Institute, which, through experimental projects, explores new forms of expression at the intersection of music, dance, and performance.
The series avoids codification and strict classifications—it combines a defined performance structure with fluidity of expression. With this project, the Sploh Institute continues its commitment to research, innovation, and the production of new formats.
