laug.sonoris: empty.space

"Don't be afraid of happiness, it doesn't exist."
**— Michel Houellebecq, *Staying Alive***

What remains of sound when you take away its certainty?

The empty.space concert is not about "new compositions," but about situations in which sound breaks down, stutters, or ceases to be comfortable. Five instruments and electronics here do not function as an ensemble, but as a system under pressure, on the verge of collapse.

Programme:
- Petr Hora — Prototype: axis /2026, world premiere
- Tímea Urban — safeword /2023, Slovak premiere

Performed by the Trenčín–Prague ensemble laug.sonoris.

The concert was supported from public funds by the Arts Support Fund and Trenčín 2026 – European Capital of Culture.
