L·L: un punt volat (L·L: an interpunct) is an interdisciplinary project that brings together videoartistic creation, photography, poetry and music. During her residence at the Nau Côclea Centre of Contemporary Creation in Camallera, Berlin artist Betina Kuntzsch investigated the graphic sign the geminate l (the letter l·l) using photographs and videos both of its graphic use and in its symbolic representation in the landscape. Of all the languages that use the Latin alphabet, this sign appears only in written Catalan. The poets Laia Noguera and Carles Hac Mor continued the process using Kuntzsch’s visual material. Their texts have also marked the reworking of the artist’s work. This dialogue is prolonged in the investigation of Josep Manuel Berenguer, an author of electronic music, who gives the dimension of sound to the project.
The work is presented in multimedia format and will be performed at 10.00 p.m. on 15 May at the Ateneu in Barcelona, as part of the Festival Loop for videocreation and the Barcelona Poetry Week.
