The artists and filmmakers Caetano and Ben Russell were invited by Eitan Efrat to play music together in the context of Sirah Foighel Brutmann and Eitan Efrat’s exhibition . During this improvised live set, Ben plays modular synthesizer and Caetano plays percussion, flutes and synthesizer, while Eitan plays on drum set. They engage in a dialogue with the exhibition through sonic experimentation, convening for the second time after their performance as part of Pôgrama Mbacarás, a series of sound experiments resulting from bringing two people to play together at the cave of Morcego, in studio space of Caetano in Marseille.

Sonic experiments guaranteed!
