NACHTFALTE | Klanglicht Graz

When Architecture Begins to Dream – The Clock Tower in Twilight.

We were invited to conceive a 10-minute audiovisual performance exploring the theme of ‘rush’. Our work »night fold« is a multilayered, ambiguous narrative told through abstract imagery. The audiovisual composition lingers in the liminal realm of the elusive, actively engaging the audience’s imagination — oscillating between noise and tone, within the tension of blur and perception. During the preparation, we had the opportunity to experiment extensively and push the software towards generating new aesthetic forms, seamlessly weaving them into the architecture.

»night fold« was presented in 2025 at the @klanglichtgraz art festival, on the Clock Tower — the landmark of Graz.
