"junkyard piece III" is the third of an open series of pieces that deal with everyday mechanical forms and processes as well as with the "collision" between the performance of written music and everyday junk/trash/noise. The basic idea for this piece came out of observing social group behaviour at translations and airports when dealing with escalators and elevators as well as observing the dynamics of musicians learning and rehearsing written music.
„junkyard piece III“ focuses on the mechanization of movement and the association possibilities between movement and sound
junkyard piece I & III can be played together as one ca.18 min piece.
