Ann Eysermans & ChampdAction

Ann Eysermans (1980) composes, performs and improvises on the double bass and the harp. As well as her links with ChampdAction, she also works on her own audiovisual projects. For the past few years, she has been on a journey incorporating music, trains and phosphorescence for her arts doctorate. As part of this inter-media project, she has already created a number of performances and installations for ChampdAction (Muzieklabyrint, Stormopkomst, Z33, and Action Happenings at the Concertgebouw Bruges, Transit Festival and M HKA).
In ‘P - Trains (Astrin Phosphora)’, the lonely physicist Frank Kondon and his dog Hund take you on a journey through a world of trains and phosphorescence. Against a background of ‘P’ trains, Fyra trains, old diesel trains, atomic observations, white phosphorous, ‘morendi’ and delays, abstractions move like opposition votes, presented in inter-media fragments that only those living in the year 2014 will comprehend. This intimate audiovisual performance is made up of a number of different worlds, which come together in compositions, tales, sounds, movements, parallels and contradictions to create a single whole that screams aloud and whispers benignly.
