SUMMARY:Ultima 2026 And then the weather // Cikada & IEMA
LOCATION:Kulturkirken Jakob
DESCRIPTION:And then the weather Kulturkirken Jakob 18 September 2026 Ligh
 t winds from the northwest\, occasional aurora\, probability of Mars dust:
  40%. What the forecast cannot tell you is what any of this will feel like
  from the inside. Tonight's conditions: Cikada\, one of Norway's defining 
 contemporary music ensembles\, and the emerging musicians of IEMA share an
  evening where earthly gestures and planetary signals enter the same liste
 ning system. Beneath the Arctic sky\, as the northern lights spread across
  the darkness\, Kaija Saariaho found the first ideas for Lichtbogen. The c
 onnection between the aurora and the piece remains elusive\, but listeners
  might recognise it in shimmering textures and harmonies that seem to emer
 ge from within the sound itself. Hanna Hartman's Advanced Weather Informat
 ion Processing System brings the forecast down to matter. We hear cutlery 
 against terracotta\, Velcro and polystyrene\, sandpaper\, and a bass drum 
 played with a rubber ball. From these materials emerge rain\, wind\, waves
 \, and chaotic accumulation---like a machine trying to read the weather fr
 om inside the weather itself. The perspective keeps widening. Malin Bång 
 begins with the body: eighteen hands moving as one collective organism. Ø
 yvind Torvund lets a string quartet dream of synthesizers\, mechanical bir
 dsong\, and sounds they were never built to make. Olivia Køppe reaches fu
 rther still\, placing archival voices around the audience so that a centur
 y of human fascination with Mars arrives as signals from very far away. Pr
