Triple Feed­back

The piece Triple Feed­back draws atten­tion to mutu­al lis­ten­ing and the pow­er of record­ing. Dur­ing colo­nial expe­di­tions of Ger­man anthro­pol­o­gists in Rwan­da at the begin­ning of the 20th cen­tu­ry, unequal encoun­ters result­ed in sound doc­u­ments that are stored today in the Berlin­er Phono­gramm-Archiv and were not acces­si­ble to the local peo­ple for a long time.
