Dissemination is the first collaboration with sound artist Hanns Holger Rutz. The installation consists of horizontally and vertically suspended glass panels functioning both as a body for sound resonance and diffusion as well as specimen holders carrying petri dishes filled with seeds. Several homogenous and clearly separated tableaux are generated, which unwind the temporal development of the generative sound composition in space. Flying seeds, which due to their natural features can be dispersed by wind, are symbolic of motion, traveling and migration. The act of dissemination is an act of re-writing, leaving traces, producing movement instead of fulfillment, strategy instead of finality..
