Simultaneous Arrivals is a project in which artists-researchers with different practices, bracketed by spatial approaches in installation art, sound art and music, build spaces of collaboration, taking post-consensual and post-human perspectives into account. We are interested in how concepts and materials become elastic or mobile to travel among the different researchers and extend beyond individual time intervals within the three year project run.
The presentation sheds light on what methods and strategies have worked so far to bridge individual artistic languages and media. Special focus is given to the working environments or workspaces that enable the researchers to engage in processes that run side-by-side, while looking for porousness, contact and exchange. The project understands spaces transversally, including physical, mental and aesthetic spaces. A special kind of extended oscillation of presence/absence sustains the togetherness of the group, captured by a notion of simultaneity.
We present two distinct case studies in sound art and intermedia as condensation points for the type of materially-informed work that arises from the project. We ask: Is there a way to determine how our artistic research and practice is transformed by the prolonged phases of experimentation?

Hanns Holger Rutz is a sound artist, composer, performer and researcher in electronic music and digital art. The central themes in his work are the materiality of writing processes and trajectories of aesthetic objects as they travel and transform across different works and different artists. Rutz holds a PhD in computer music and is Professor for Artistic Research at the Gustav Mahler Private University of Music (GMPU) Klagenfurt. He has lead and is leading several artistic research projects, including the FWF PEEK project “Algorithms that Matter” (2017–2021) and the FWF PEEK project “Simultaneous Arrivals” (2022–2025).
