This show focuses on isolated filmic/sonic experiences, where each frame/sound is self-sufficient and independent from the others. Imagine a film that has no beginning – just starts – that has no ending – just stops. A film where each image sequence exists on its own, instead of participating in any progression.
//
The goal is to a frame, adding another one after another, and so on, without any apparent relation between them, except the pure enchantment of building an abstract filmic glare. If the imagetic events on a certain film ‘glue’ each other in a special order, then it is because that order would obviously have to influence or even constitute the sense of the work itself: poetic abstractions, moving, creating time – making time audible and visible!
The ‘time’ in this music film, is a ‘virtual time’; by contrast, the sequence of current and concrete events, is an absolute time. Then, ‘time’ becomes the essential ingredient for this show’s understanding. Consequently, the filmic events, become a flux and turn into a chained series of events that contain not only Time as well as they shape it slowly. The show must be understood as a series of ‘moments’, with no defined direction nor movement and where us travels in Time: Past&Future.
The session begins with the short film ‘Beard’ from Paulo Abreu, along with the music by Vítor Rua, that will improvise about the soundtrack, also his own.

Biographical notes
VÍTOR RUA
Musician. Rua, VÍTOR Manuel Ferreira (b. Mesão Frio, Jul 23rd 1961). Guitarrist, composer and producer. Autodidact musician, exceptionally studied guitar in the Music School Duarte Costa from 1974 to 1976 in the course lectured by José Pina, in Oporto, city where he lived until 1982, year in which he spent settling in professional activity, integrating executing sets of pop-rock covers and creating rock groups to execute originals and with the influence of symphonic rock.
Between 1976-77, he integrated the group King Fisher’s Band (Oporto’s training on folk-rock covers) initially as a keyboardist, later as a mandolinist, percussionist and singer, although chasing a different musical orientation from the other elements.
Opting for dedicating himself solely to rock, founded with Alexandre Soares, in 1979, the GNR, acronyms for New Rock Group; with this training, he recorded his first compositions with big popular impact (e.g. Portugal in CEE, 1980 and, Be a GNR, 1981); in 1981 invited Rui Reininho to integrate GNR and directed the recording of the first LP (Independança, 1982, cult work); with this band he gave a tone of concerts, specially the ultimate Vilar de Mouros Festival of 1982.
In the same year, he participated as producer and composer on the phonograms of Manuela Moura Guedes (Alibi, 1982) and António Variações (Guardian Angel, 1983). In 1982 he met Jorge Lima Barreto in person; the interaction and influence from the latter would have been decisive for his final change of course in music, having with him formed the group Telectu and edited that year Ctu Telectu, transition album from rock to the new improvised music and electronic live (1982). Juridical divergences that would last until mid-1990, created a schism over the property of the initials GNR; since 1983 and went on to dedicate himself primordially to the duo Telectu, on a career that still goes on today, magnified by dozens of phonograms and video grams, hundreds of concerts, and multimedia and interart shows where he revealed his huge amount of talent as an electronic guitarist, polinstrumentist, composer, prototype inventor, poliartist: had sporadic and controversial recurrences to pop-rock and marginal experimentalisms having created a few groups with record editions in LP (e.g. P.S.P., 1988; Popcorn, 1989; Classic GNR, 1991; mimi so little and so dirty, 1991: VR and the Ressonators, 1994; scratch, 1995; and .a.); he was a mentor and produced a few CDs from groups like Rui Azul/Digital Pressures and Strab Reporter, both from 1994; Perve – Segment, 1995; Pedro Alçada/Coty Cream,1996.
In 1990 he had idealized and produced the initiatory anthology of new improvised music, Vidya, that reunited some of the main musicians in the area (e.g. M. Azguime, C. Zíngaro, R. Toral, N. Rebelo, Sei Miguel, Tozé Ferreira, Osso Exótico, J. P. Feliciano, Saheb Sarbib, J. Lima Barreto and Elliott Sharp, e.a.). From this date on he launched his own singular learning of musical notation, starting a career as a contemporary classical music composer. In 1994, he formed the group Vidya Ensemble for the interpretation of some of their works (e.g. Vidya Ensemble – Stress/ Relax, 1996). Subsequently, virtuous interpreters like the soprano Ana Ester Neves (e.g. the steel cow and the Wooden cocks about poems of Herberto Helder; toccata 2, poetry of M. Cesariny); the poli-saxophonist Daniel Kientzy (on the CD sax works 2003; a few works: Gula, Musique Céréale, Cyberpunk, e.a.); the trombonist Giancarlo Schiaffini on the creation of Babel Syndrome; the pianist John Tilbury (e.g. gracefull brilliance, spin, e.a.); the bezel flautists Kathryn Bennets, Peter Bowman (e.g. duplicator II in the anthology flights of fancy, London, 2003), e.a., recorded and interpreted his own works at concerts and national and foreign festivals (in CD: works, 2001).
Started with a composition on the phonogram In Memoriam Peixinho, Paris, 2001. Since the same decade, he composes regularly in works of functional music for dance (e.g. Paulo Ribeiro, 1996, god’s rumor; João Fiadeiro, 1997-1999, mindfield; João Galante and Teresa Prima 1997-2003, new babylonia; Paula Castro, 1998; Aldarra Bizarro, 2002/2003, e.a.); for drama (e.g. Cornucopia, 1984, 2002, Zimbelino; Jean Jourdheil, 1997, Germania III; Ricardo Pais, 1997-2003, Night of Kings, The Lessons, The Castro or Hamlet; Nuno Carinhas/Mário Cesariny, an act to Jerusalem, 2002; e.a.); for cinema (e.g. Edgar Pêra, 2001-2003, the drama man; for performance arts (e.g. Elizabete Mileu, Rui Orfão, 1987; Galante, 2001-2003; Lost Objects/Paulo Eno, 1987-2003, e.a.). As a singular videoast created works of music video and fictional, such as The Alienated, 1988; Vidya, 1989; Butterfly Effect, 1995; The Singer Dust, 1996; Sex Drive, 1997; Etaoin, 1999; e.a.; and, composed music for videograms of E.M. de Melo e Castro, 1985-1991, Rita Nunes, 1999, Edgar Pêra, 2002-2003, e.a. Made music for installations (e.g. multimedia sculptures of Joana Vasconcelos, 2002-2003); produced various albums from experimentalists authors, gave conferences and lectured private and public seminars; author of the radio show Cantão do Rock, Macau, 1989.
He wrote a book The Musicology from Babe the Pig Era; worded several manifestos about rock, contemporary music, jazz, improvised, in an ironic and pedagogical style. He was an interpreter in many of the experimental pop albums he produced and, with Telectu, performed and recorded internationally, with many musicians of great cultural projection. His instrumental technique characterizes itself by the resource to patterns on the execution of scales based on modal language, especially on the improvisations performance within pop-rock. In the creation of improvised music, he often appeals to less common instrumental techniques (called instrumental extended techniques) in a way that explores the numerous timbre and text potentialities. It is also frequent the use of electronic processing of sound. With a strong humoristic component (on the use of some timbres, on the vocal and instrumental techniques, on texts, e.a.); his compositional style is equally characterized by the exploitation of small fragments (one scale, one series of sounds, one small rhythmic sentence) and by the resource to less common instrumental techniques (e.g. tapping on the bass) for the obtainment of specific timbres, not directly associated to the sound source that produced them.
In his music writing he searches equally to use graphic symbols, sometimes innovative. It is often the resource to applied computer technology, to music and sampling techniques and electronic processing of sound in his genesis method. Playing several tasks in different artistic activities, his action guided itself by the cross and approach from different domains of music. His career constitutes equally the musician’s paradigm who, starting activity within pop-rock, was progressively approaching circles and practices of erudite production, such as minimalism; a solipsist trajectory, enchanting, vivacious aesthetic interventionism.
Composer. In 1987 on a voluntary self-didactic act considered decisively the study on contemporary music notation and within this context evolved in a meteoric way. His work reflects a cutting work of cutting post-modern, preliminary, variated, from the empirical refusal of cultural confinement, trickle on the ideoletal and stylistic borders.
Interpreters like Daniel Kientzy, John Tilbury, Frank Abbinanti, Peter Bowman, Kathryn Bennetts, Ana Ester Neves, OrchestraUtópica, Drumming, Remix Ensemble, Goram Morcep, recorded and/or interpreted works of this composer in concerts and national and international festivals.

Telectu
Musical duo constituted by Jorge Lima Barreto and Vitor Rua, formed in 1982 at the III Bienal de Vila Nova de Cerveira. In the same year he edited the álbum, Ctu Telectu, on a heterodox training of piano, electronic organ, harpsichord, synthesiser, electronic guitars bass and solo, Portuguese guitar drums
and voice.
Since their early years, the musical practice of the duo was guided by an experimentation program of different interpretative and compositional solutions, aware of a rare technologic update; this experimental nature led to essentially interpret its compositions, with the exception of conceptual pieces such as the Vexations of E. Satie, 1980 and, the Compositions 1960 and X for Henry Flint de La Monte Young,1982. Telectu created graphic scores, tablatures, instrumental tattoos, and considered the album and the video as fixation and support of his works. Laboratory for syntheses of experimental pop and electroacoustic improvisation, through the 1980s their production was marked, first for the introduction in Portugal of repetitive minimal music, electronic live concoction, magnetic band, heteroclitic percussion, electronic guitar displayed with the mastery of Rua, vibraphone, electric piano, rhythm computer, and a guitar models show, prototype keyboards, digital devices runway, glabrous and electronic percussion; instrumental exoticism, acoustic treatments in real time until about 1986, important record editions in vinyl (e.g. Belzebu, 1983; Off-Off, double, 1984; Performance, 1984; Telephone, Live Moscow, 1985; Foundation, 1985; Rosa-Cruz, 1985;
Halley, 1986, luxury album with the silkscreen of Palolo; Data, 1986 – video music), periodically re-edited in CD ( e.g. Belzebu, 1995; Leonardo Internet, USA/ USSR, 1997; or Mimesis, minimal works, 1998); afterwards, he opted for the search of new musical typologies called jazz-off, mimetic music, rock-pop-off, new improvised music, e.a. theorized in books or J.L.B. articles, or in pedagogical proposals, manifests that accompanied concerts or record and/or video graphic editions; recognized as a cult group, Telectu presented instrumental innovations and top notch devices, such as the e-bow, the sampler, the stick chapman, wind, strings and percussion digital controllers, the DAT, the workstation, the wavestation, the EWI, the sound system digital, processors, sequencers; an extravagant electronic paraphernalia, ethnographic instrumentarium, such as the sitar and the Indian tampura, the African kalimba, pipa, sheng and Chinese gongs, prototypes like the lithophone, flutes and Asian and South-American idiophones, the Australian didgeridoo, sound sculptures or stringphones invented by Rua (e.g. Ben Johnson, double, 1987; Camerata Elettronica, double, 1988; Live at the Knitting Factory, 1989; Encounters II, with Jean Sarbib
1989; and Digital Buiça, 1989).
The 1990s aimed to the development of a career centered in structured improvisation, in idioletal phrasing, polyrhythm, aggregated, clusters, concrete sounds of nature, domestic, industrial or urban, sinusoidal, noise, vocal syntagmas, mimesis that recreates images and codes out of the instituted patterns, groove styles such as digital imitation of the acoustic instrument, stylistic and typological hybridizations, e.a. technological techniques and resources; he required collaboration of Portuguese artists since the 1980s (e.g. Jean Saheb Sarbib, C. Zíngaro, Nuno Rebelo, Sei Miguel, Filipe Mendes, António Duarte, R. Toral, M. Azguime, e.a.); Telectu started to often invite foreign musicians from absolute main plan in the equal aesthetic movement (e.g. the saxophonists, clarinetists or blowers, Evan Parker, T. Hodgkinson, J. Butcher, L. Sclavis, D. Kientzy; the trumpeters J. Berrocal, H. Robertson; the trombonists G. Schiaffini, Paul Rutherford; the drummers C. Cutler, Sunny Murray, B. Altschul, P. Lytton, E. Prévost, G. Hemingway; the polyinstrumentist Elliott Sharp; the creators of electronic live Ikue Mori, Reina Portuondo; e.a.) whose partnerships resulted in the sporadic edition of phonograms as register of those sessions (e.g. Evil Metal, with Elliott Sharp 1991; Oh! Pazuzu, for percussion, 1992; Theremin Tao, 1993; Biombos, live Beijing, Macau, Hong Kong, 1993; Telectu/Cutler/Berrocal, 1995; À Lagardère, with Berrocal, 1996; prélude, rapsodies & coda, with D. Kientzy, 1998; jazz-off / multimedia, with Sclavis and Berrocal, 1998; Kientzy / Telectu – acústica amorosa, 2002).
At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 3rd millenium, Lima Barreto progressively adopted the piano (keyboard, strings, percussion, ready)
and Rua informatized his speech with the computer, the eventide; declining a post-modern speech of accentuated jazz verve, form overlap, quote games, performative extremism, video show and luminotecnia, new production procedures, specialization notions (e.g. Solos, double,1999; Drulovic Remix, computer music, 2001; Quartetos, triplo, com S. Murray, Hemingway, Prévost, Chant, 2002); included in remarkable anthologies such as State of The Union, New York, 2001; Bed of Sound, Contemporary Art Center, New York, 2001; Exploring Music From Portugal, London, 2001; Antologia da Música Electronica Portuguesa, 2003.
In the two decades of their existence they collected numerous records in audio and video cassettes, DAT, CDROM, CDI, magnetic band, computer, a spoil projected to future and possible editions. Throughout their entire career and a diverse praxeology, they turned up in festivals (e.g. Vilar de Mouros 82; it is the group with the largest number of presences in Festa do Avante!; Performance Portuguaise, Paris; Encontros de Nova Música Improvisada in CAM; Ó da Guarda; Co-Lab; Fonoteca Files; Música Experimental de Coimbra; Semana de Música Contemporânea, Bucareste; Música de Vanguarda, Granada; Graça Territori, Barcelona; Nova Música, Madrid; Atlantic Waves, Londres; Bienais de Cerveira, Alternativa de Arte dos Açores, Barcelona; alternative performances in the main Jazz festivals in Portugal, e.a.); galleries and museums; theatres, concert halls and auditoriums (e.g. Conservatórios de Beijing, Versailles, Perpignan; Salle Olivier Messiaen, GRM, Paris; Sala Lecuona, Havana; Sala Enescu, Bucareste; Teatro Wulk, Viena; Knitting Factory e Tonic, Nova Iorque; Quasimodo, Berlin; Casa Garden, Macau; Jazz Club, Hong Kong; Keep in Touch Club, Beijing; Romanische Café, Tóquio; Auditório Lenine, Moscovo; in various institutions like the Centre G. Pompidou, Paris; Fundacion Miró, Barcelona; Centro Viriato; Fundação Serralves; Fundação C. Gulbenkian; Centro de Arte Moderna; Centro Nacional de Cultura; SPA; Universidades de Beijing, Washington, e.a.) where they developed a combined improvisation practice with other performative and polyartistic non-musical postures and original props; directing with actors, painters, video makers, e.a.; in these performative events (especially in the 1980s, they would often appeal to surprise and to irony as resistance strategies and creation of surprising situations.
Telectu since its origin got involved with interartistic and multimediact projects, with distinguished national artists. Multimedia musical installations of high templates (e.g. EBRAC, J. N. Câmara Pereira, J. Listopad, 1986; the show Périplo, multimedia ambulation, with António Palolo initiated in the opening of Casa de Serralves, 1986; since 1985 they developed with Palolo the project Video Garden, video, luminotecnia, plants, for the most important concerts).
Telectu is the most importante portuguese musical group connected to performance, developing sound, body, filmic and psychodramatic situations (e.g. Silvestre Pestana, 1979 – 92; Mineo Lamagushi, 1980-84; Neon, 1982-1990; Artitudes, 1982; Carlos Gordilho, 1984-89; Manoel Barbosa, 1984 – 2003; Fernando Aguiar, 1981- 2000, e.a.); interaction with the poetry of Eugénio de Andrade (video, 1986), concrete poetry, phonetics, inforart (e.g. E.M. de Melo e Castro, poem adds 14 x, recited by João Perry, 1983- 2000; X Musatomias for 10 portuguese poets, CAM,1983, Lisboa, e.a.); functional music for theater (e.g. Cornucópia, J. Listopad, e.a.); music for cinema (e.g. the singular minimalistic film of Palolo, OM, 1984 ); music for videoart ( e.g. Silvestre Pestana,1982-1989 ; António Palolo,1983-2000; Ernesto de Sousa; and Wolf Vostell, 1986); they listed a videography by Rua and Palolo in paradigmatic like Autoloop, 1986; Compgraf, 1988; the animation show o carro amarelo,
1985-1988; since 1984 that the best part of Telectu concerts were video recorded; they articulate the sound material, the phonogram as a aesthetic object, covers, iconography and billboards, made by Palolo or by the two musicians, using unusual materials and graphic techniques such as cork, silk, serigraphy, multiform object, e.a.). Telectu is the vanguard epitome, it is, in Portugal, the most significant example of post-modern music, polyartistic adventure, rhizomaticated trajectory open work.
