| No seriously, if you ever find yourself working on a large-scale technical setup, involving many acoustic guitars, that have to be amplified, plan ahead accordingly.
| Gustavo's installation space was the attic and spire of |sophien_kirche|, which further complicated the whole story due to long cable lines (we ended up making a couple of hundred meters of custom cables).
| We got ready just in time for the opening.
-| The result (TODO: sound examples) however was very mystic and dreamy sound wise (just as the name suggests).
-| Gustavo just recently made a few more proper recordings of the aeolic effect in his work studio (TODO: link). As you can hear, he really put some thought into the strings and how to excite them.
+| The resulting |dreaming_smetak_audio| however was very mystic and dreamy sound wise (just as the name suggests).
+| You can find a |dreaming_smetak_pictures| (some by me) and a |dreaming_smetak_video|, that further explain the whole thing.
+| File under: Worth it!

| This was not my only involvement with the festival, though.
| During setting up |dreaming_smetak|, Gustavo and I could listen already to the rehearsals of the in-house choir (not too bad actually!) and of |quatuor_diotima| (an excellent string quartett) below us in the nave, which I would record later on.

| The chapel is semi-open to the outside, consisting of wooden bars, marking an oval space (much like a wooden prison... weird concept for a chapel, right?), enclosing a concrete building (also ovally shaped).
| This plus rain is pretty much speaker apocalypse and makes you get all paranoid about those Meyer UPL-1.
| Although I didn't hear much of Karen's piece, I dealt with the technical setup of another installation/ performance of hers earlier this year.
-| She is a very interesting and nice person, collecting sound scapes from all over the world, that she turns into pieces.

| Another interesting place of involvement for us was the |elisabeth_kirche|, a bombed out church in Berlin-Mitte, that has seen only mild renovations to now house concerts, perfomances and installations.
| There, we dealt with the gentlemen John Tilbury and Eddie Prévost of AMM and Mazen Kerbaj, Sharif Sehnaoui and Raed Yassin of A-Trio (both alone and in combination: |amm_a_trio_aamm|), alongside Boris Filanovsky and Arno Fabre showcasing |componiums_la_machine_fleuve|.
| The first two needed a classical concert setup, in which we took care of the sometimes very dynamic output and a recording for |deutschlandradio_kultur|, the latter, as a performance piece, based upon a cyclist-driven multitude of music boxes, needed some fine tuning for the piezos in use.

| In respective, I'm still astounded by how much has been accomplished by so few people.
| Although obviously planning of such events can always be better, much can still be pushed towards a good direction by applying some hard work!
