STEP INTO THE SPACE WHERE AGENCY OVER OUR BODIES IS NEGOTIATED THROUGH CONSENT. WELCOME, TUNE IN INTO THE FREQUENCIES OF DETACHMENT HOW BEAUTIFUL CAN YOU LOOK WE TRUST WITHOUT THE FEAR OF BEING HURT. AT THE END, IT’S JUST HAIR THAT ORGANIC MATTER WITH AN INHERENT CODE THAT TELLS IT, GROW. DO YOU REMEMEBER YOU JUST GREW? AND NOW? WHAT DO YOU CUT ? AT THE END, IT’S JUST A FLOOR SWEPT AND THE PAST IS GONE. DID YOU KNEW, THAT HAIR KEEPS MEMORIES? AND HOSTS EVERY NEW DREAM THROUGH FOLLICLES INTO STRINGS? CAN YOU HEAR THE FREQUENCIES OF INTERSECTING DREAMS? THIS IS OUR SECRET RESSONANT CHAMBER, WHERE WE ECHO TRACES OF THOSE FLICKERING IMAGES WHITHIN US. CAN YOU HEAR, THE MOMENT WHERE WE LET GO NOW? CAN YOU FEEL BODY, WITHOUT TOUCH? GO OUT, NOW, EMBODINING A NEW NEUROPLASTIC LOOK. “Aural Cut” is an immersive, participatory performance by Francis and Mathias Klenner, where electroacoustic haircutting becomes a ritual of care, catharsis, and sonic exploration. Using contact microphones on scissors, the act of haircutting is amplified, distorted, and woven into shifting soundscapes composed live, transforming a gesture of intimacy into a multi-sensory performance. Recorded during a residency at La Infinita, Barcelona, the recording reflects the duo’s research into the vibrational field of sound, ancestral practices, and the emotive power of hair as a conduit for transformation. With layers of natural reverb sourced from abandoned buildings and improvised rhythmic patterns, the release makes audible the delicate trust between cutter and receiver—where vulnerability, attention, and affection converge into a raw, affective landscape of improvised composition and body-specific ritual.
