The Poland-based Unsound Festival consistently embraces the process of creative engagement across national borders. As part of Lincoln Center’s Festival of Firsts, this concert spotlights two mixed pairs of Polish and American artists collaborating to construct original shared languages. The prolific experimental-ambient wunderkind claire rousay spent a week in 2024 composing overseas in a secluded village in the Polish countryside with the Kraków-based composer and musician Martyna Basta. Their resulting joint show and album, hotel room, is a rugged travelogue of loose musical fragments, autotuned vocals, and complex atmospheres. The U.S. performance debut of hotel room features projected visuals by German artist Theresa Baumgartner. Next up is a new collaboration between American electronic producer Keith "Giant Claw" Rankin, head of the pioneering label Orange Milk Records, and Warsaw soundtrack composer and performer Julek ploski. Together, they present a new A/V work, the result of an Unsound-commission and residency in Warsaw.
