UNI-HYbr:ID
60' Live Performance by Alva Noto for Biennale Son in partnership with La Schubertiade RTS Espace 2
La Centrale, Saturday, September 6, 2025 at 8:30 p.m.
UNI-HYbr:ID is the latest audiovisual performance by Alva Noto, merging the sonic worlds of his albums UNIEQAV (2018) and HYbr:ID (2021). While UNIEQAV explores a rhythmic, dancefloor-oriented approach—evolving the conceptual frameworks behind Unitxt and Univrs—HYbr:ID dives into meticulously layered sound design and spatial atmospheres.
Described as 'sonically representing an underwater dive,' UNIEQAV draws from mathematical structures and data systems, while language, spoken word, and DNA inform both the creative process and the resulting sonic landscape. HYbr:ID moves through expansive textures toward more melancholic and introspective terrain.
With UNI-HYbr:ID, these two worlds converge in a singular live experience, where pulse meets abstraction and data merges with emotion.
