In the middle of the room a stage, the audience gathered around it, left and right each a large wall of guitar amplifiers. The two guitarists with extended electric guitars (tabletops) produce a continuous »Wall Of Sound«, which–controlled by the third performer–is thrown onto the two amplifier walls in constantly changing pulses and panorama switches. Psychoacoustic processes mislead the perception of speed and volume and disrupt orientation: an acoustic stroboscope that ranges from fast and ultrashort needle punctures, unyielding salvos to (seemingly) endless acceleration, confronting the audience with the deceptiveness and vulnerability of its perception.
