Knistern describes a crackling sound, and is also a metaphor for something that’s in the air between people. Something invisible that makes the relational space vibrate and spark. The series Knistern each time brings together two artists and a musical idea they are currently working on. They present their current work in a short set, and then have space to share their musical ideas in conversation with each other, a music journalist, and the audience. Knistern takes place in collaboration with Richten25, project space for improvised music in Berlin Wedding.
