Norient: 5 videos from

Norient is an audiovisual gallery and a (practice) community for the sound of the world. For its series "5 Video-Clips from", which has been running since 2012, Norient invites artists, authors and researchers to curate a playlist of music videos from their country of residence. For KLANG MOOR SCHOPFE, Norient has created three medleys of music videos from this series. Each medley consists of 8 to 10 music videos and lasts an average of 30 minutes. The medleys will be shown in a loop on alternating days at the festival.
