Rudolf Eb.er has released more than 100 CD's and albums internationally, and is considered as one of the leading artists in the noise and experimental vocal scene. Born austrian and grew swiss, he is expert in scientific illustration, martial and therapeutic arts, and is founder of the audio-artists and aktionist collective 'SCHIMPFLUCH' in 1987. Early sonic studies examined the importance of timing, the power of silence, and developed shocking and confusing-precise cut-up compositions, 'aural alchemism', of documented extreme-situations, psycho-field-recordings, and direct actionism - an actionism of the unexpected. Regarded as 'art-brut shamanist', Eb.er's path leads down thru the unconscious, deepest regions of human psyche and animal instinct. Abreactive outbursts arranged in the high art of timing, as mediated in disciplines such as kung-fu, confront all senses with existence - and open up the way to the higher being.
'RUNZELSTIRN & GURGELSTØCK' is another name for Eb.er's psycho-active audio-art and 'psycho-physical tests and trainings', performed and produced global. Eb.er, currently living in Japan, increasingly focus his 'purification rituals' on breathing exercices, concentrated chi-energy and shifting psycho-magic to enter the super-consciousness, the nondualist awareness of 'ultimate reality'.
EXTREME RITUALS contains two raw surgical wild tracks of 17 minutes, masterworks of intensity.
Rudolf Eb.er a sorti plus de 100 CD's et albums sur toutes sortes de labels internationaux et est considéré comme l'un des plus importants artistes actuels de la scène noise et vocale expérimentale. Rudolf Eb.er est autrichien et a grandi en suisse, il est expert en illustration scientifique, arts martiaux et thérapeutiques, et a fondé le collectif d'artistes-actionnistes sonores 'SCHIMPFLUCH' en 1987. Ses premières recherches soniques examinaient l'importance de la durée, la puissance du silence, et ont développé des compositions cut-up choquantes et paniquantes, 'alchimie auditive', documentations de situations extrêmes, psycho-field-recordings, et actionnisme direct - un actionnisme de l'inattendu.
Considéré comme 'shaman-art-brut', la voie d'Eb.er se forge au travers de l'inconscient, dans les régions les plus profondes de la psyché humaine et de l'instinct animal. Des éruptions abréactives arrangées dans des temporalités précises, canalisées dans des disciplines comme le kung-fu, confrontent tous les sens avec l'existence - et ouvre la voie à l'éveil.
'RUNZELSTIRN & GURGELSTØCK' est un autre nom pour l'audio art psycho-actif de Rudolf Eb.er' et ses 'tests et entraînements psycho-physiques', performés et produits partout. Eb.er, vit actuellement au japon, focalise graduellement ses 'rituels de purification' par des exercices de respiration, de concentration d'energie-chi et shifting psycho-magic pour entrer dans la super-conscience, l'éveil non-dualiste de la 'réalité ultime'.
EXTREME RITUALS contient deux pièces sauvages, brutales et chirugicales de 17 minutes, concentrés d'intensité.
