    Club Wintercircus, Gent

A film! A concert! An audiovisual show with immersive sound. ‘The story of Lung-Ta’ is all of these things. Nausca, a new Ansatz der Maschine project, presents an audiovisual performance in which four live musicians (harp, strings, drums, electronics, guzheng, nyckelharpa and yayli tanbur...) tell the story of Lung-Ta using real film footage, animated video, graphics and immersive sound. 

With Nausca, Mathijs Bertel (known from Ansatz der Maschine) is taking a completely new direction: one where music, visuals and narrative merge into a total experience. On 10 December, he will present his debut at Club Wintercircus with an exclusive audiovisual show, built around 360° visuals and immersive sound that you don’t just hear, but truly feel.

At the heart of the show is The Story of Lung-ta, a film concert that follows the story of a girl who washes ashore in a mysterious world and tries to understand how everything is connected. Along the way, she is accompanied by ‘windhorses’, symbolic horses that refer to Tibetan prayer flags and the power of nature. What begins as a fairy-tale journey of discovery grows into a reflection on biodiversity, our relationship with nature and just how fragile that balance actually is.

Live, this story is brought to life by four musicians playing a wide array of instruments, from harp and strings to electronics and more unusual sounds such as the guzheng, nyckelharpa and yayli tanbur. This music is interwoven with film footage, animation and graphic elements to create a total experience that balances somewhere between concert, film and installation.
