[COM]POSER, a concert and presentation in Bern, 14 October. A reflection on Wicomb’s work produced during his Pro Helvetia artist residency in Switzerland.

Audio-DH is an enormous collaborative project conceived by Francisco Lopez. Fifty curators chose 250 sound artists/composers whose contributions were used as material for the software HARING to create ‘meta’ compositions premiering at the Korzo Theatre, (22 Sept.) and various listening stations in Den Haag. Wicomb’s contribution was an excerpt of his piece Me [an]D.
Three pieces of Wicomb will be performed by the Swiss improvising duo InterZones at the Chateau de Roche, Arc-et-Senans. These works are the result of modelling and rethinking the psychoanalytical milieu together with research into the contemporary opera.

The piece Me an[D] for solo piano and MIDI soundtrack will be performed at the annual computer music symposium in Utrecht by a member of the Insomnio ensemble, Laura Sandee.
Wicomb is currently residing in Bern at the PROGR/Stadtgalerie meeting/collaborating with Swiss ensembles and musicians until the middle of October 2016.
The piece Solecism will have its USA premiere in New York at the NYCEMF 2016, 14th of June. The work for horn and tape will be performed by Mathew S James.
