MATHEUS SOUZA - Diode
After almost two years of travelling and studying around Europe the students of the Master's program CoPeCo (Contemporary Performance and Composition) are finally in Hamburg and show their works in two different concerts in July.
CoPeCo is a unique international Master's program that unites composition, interpretation, improvisation and new technologies in one. The students, who are composers and performers at the same time, study every semester in another institution around Europe.

Diode Matheus Souza
for live electronics & live visuals
Diode is a real-time electroacoustic work incorporating live-visuals, audio spatialization and lighting. In the same way as a forward-biased semiconductor (diode), enables the current to freely flow, this piece is in constant movement, guiding the audience towards each of its five environments. Each environment originates in either guided and free improvisations, and the musical elaboration it experiences, developes in either a cyclical or a linear form. This aspect is connected to one of the composer's motivations of exploring his inherent and strong tendency to liminality in aspects such as: composition & performance, aural & mimetic discourses, man & machine, retro & futuristic, new & vintage, and analogue & digital. The last aspect leading to the Postdigitalism, a concept that has strong relevance for the composer's general intentions in his most recent works.
