LIVE PERFORMANCE
BBtrem. (Boštjan Perovšek, Brane Zorman):
tremolo composition
Juan José López Díez: introduction talk
Tremolo explores the occurrence and communication levels of vibrational sound in insects within specific ecosystems. It examines the corporeality of sound in selected organisms as they interact with space. The project brings together two artists and scientist with nature conservation institutions. It focuses on ecosystems of the "third landscape"—abandoned urban spaces where wilderness resists human intervention. Through sonic research, tremolo raises questions about biodiversity, destructive practices of the Anthropocene, and the potential for sound-ecological coexistence.

Brane Zorman is a composer, sound and intermedia artist, and producer. He researches spatial sound, sound ecologies, and multichannel compositions, often in connection with conservation projects. He is a co-founder of the Cona institute.
Boštjan Perovšek is a composer and sound designer. He explores the creation of bioacoustic music based on animal sounds, particularly insects. He also collaborates with the groups Jata C and SAETA, and creates music for film, theater, performances, and multimedia installations, as well as soundscapes for museums and galleries.
Juan José López Díez is a biotremologist researching at the Department of Organisms and Ecosystems Research (EKOS), NIB, with a deep curiosity about vibrational communication in insects. He is passionate about using sound for knowledge creation and exchange, bridging the gap between art and science.
