der Landebahn is an international project that were shown in Sweden and Berlin. It is a sound installation in two versions, one was presented in the closed airport Tempelhofer Feld in Berlin, Germany in February 2018 and the other was presented in the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Sweden in April 2018. During Maria Lindström’s exchange studies at Universität der Kunste in Berlin she was regularly visiting the airport for two months for collecting material and inspiration for the installation. This resulted in the first version of the installation for five speakers presented on one of the runways. The sound material was based on eight historical events from the Tempelhofer Feld which were converted in to sound, the material also contained field recordings from the visits. The project aims to investigate how composing can develop and be affected from a longer visit at a specific place.
In the second version of the installation, der Landebahn 2.0, the material is based on showing material from the work progress at the airport and to try to summarise a feeling that the place presents. The conversion of image to sound also forms part of the material here: to further develop this process, a photo editing program is used, which manipulates photos from the Tempelhofer Feld installation and is after this converted to audio files. With the attempt to imitate the visual effects on the audio files different sound processing techniques have then been used. This version also contains a video projection based on photos / videos from the work process at Tempelhofer Feld, as well as reflections on the concept of landing, attendance and travel. This version also contains a collaboration with Hilda Lindström. She made a videoprojection based on the material from the work process as well as reflections on the concept of travelling, departure/arrival, future/past and attendance.
