The Rovar17
(Insect17 in English) is basically Kálmán Pongrácz's solo project, but different kinds of collaboration often occur with musicians, visual artists, performers as well as theater. The music is made by audio-audio collage technique, which rejects the traditional sound system, harmony, melody, even rhythm, and creates compositions from inconsistent and untempered sounds, noises, natural or electronic- but mostly human voices. This act has already seen more than 400 concerts and performances, and has played all across Hungary, in Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States of America. The method of the Rovar17 audio collage technique: - first step: Creation. We create some artificial organisms. Because we have not got pure laboratory, and we cannot groom test-tubes and instruments; the generated living beings are black-hearted. - second step: Sampling. We investigate the evil beings & make video and audio record of their behaviour. Eventually, finds are presented live to the audience.
