Two days of improvised music and poetry.
Marina Mello’s harp screeches. Luca Koch writes poems about bubbling, humming, and trembling.
About pressure. About heat. About movements beneath the surface.
We seem to be living in a giant pressure cooker.
It’s getting hotter. The pressure is rising.
Don’t let anyone lift the lid.

So let’s let off some steam.
In sound.
In language.
In air turbulence and sound waves.

Carte Blanche artists Marina Mello and Luca Koch have put together two bands for this event that improvise in a fresh, urgent, and powerful way. They grab hold of the words, drive them forward, break them down, and carry them onward. The poems buzz. The music responds. We all hum along.

Songs of sound clouds accumulate.
It hisses, crackles, throbs, and pushes its way through the room. Fragments gather, condense, and dissolve again.
No lid.
No valve.
Just two days of controlled loss of control.

Carte Blanche artists Marina Mello and Luca Koch have assembled bands for their worldbuzzpoems that improvise with freshness, urgency, and power.
Magda Mayas is a poet of piano keys and strings. Biliana Voutchkova draws an entire orchestra from her violin. Marina Mello’s harp enchants from the ears down to the pit of the stomach, while Luca Pilu Koch paints with every shade of the human voice.
Together, they reach for words, propel them forward, take them apart, and carry them onward. The music buzzes. The poems catch the waves. We all hum along.
Sound-cloud-songs accumulate.
They hiss, crackle, pulse, and move through the room. Fragments gather, condense, and dissolve again.
No lid.
No valve.
Just two days of controlled loss of control.
