The Exhibition:
In “Stereo Twice,” two stereo consoles from the 1960s stand opposite one another. The 1980s hit single “Give Me Your Love” by Frank Duvall is rotating on the turntables. However, the musical content is secondary, as both of the pickup arms have been manipulated in such a way that one and the same passage plays over and over again. What originates by analog means is what otherwise only occurs by mixing samples: an indefinite beat that produces a spatial effect through the use of two stereo sound sources. Depending on where visitors are in the space, an acoustic discoloration takes place: the two beats sometimes seem synchronous, and in the next instant they distance themselves from one another in terms of time and space, one to find themselves again. On the one hand, by using a loop the sound work makes reference to the repetition of one of the most elementary components of music, and at the same time to the impossibility of the perfect sameness of what is being repeated as such.
